Norwegian TV Airs Live From Mobile Phone

So this is not TV on mobile, but mobile video on traditional TV….Norway’s state broadcaster NRK claimed its test mobile transmission from the grueling, 90-kilometer Vasaloppet cross-country ski marathon in Sweden last weekend was a world first.
NRK equipped a sports reporter with a 3G phone and sent him off with 15,000 skiers who started the race. He provides commentary and images from the race…NRK said images were as good as those transmitted by satellite telephone from conflict or catastrophe areas but that 3G was cheaper and easier to use.
