Verizon starts Vcasting

Verizon Wireless has started its VCast service, which for $15 a month gives customers access to mobile music, 3D games and high resolution video over its EV-DO network. There are other features as well, and for now the service works on three EV-DO phones the company is selling right now. The company has turned on its high-speed Broadband Access service in more markets including Ohio, Connecticut, Boston and Chicago. More @ MobileTracker.
