Terrestrial-DMB Adds Color to Korean Lifestyle

T-DMB seems to be doing well in Korea…”Two mobile service operators LG Telecom and KTF also say that the TV-on-move phone sales are rising at an impressive rate. Daily sales of the T-DMB handsets have increased from around 300 per day in early January to around 700 in late January for both companies…The T-DMB phones are expected to become more common when SK Telecom, the nation’s largest mobile career, joins the two others in a few months. Currently, SK Telecom is not supporting a T-DMB service. But on Sunday, it said that it is planning to service it in the “very near future,” according to a company spokesman, supporting industry forecasts that the number of T-DMB subscribers will exceed 1 million at the end of this year.”
