Mobile TV startup Modeo (spinoff from Crown Castle) is going to launch its beta trial next week in NYC…the company says it is a beta commercial launch, but that’s just spin: the beta service is closed to the public and will be open only to a select group, which the company says will have several hundred users, reports Gigaom.
No carrier deals yet, and no announcement on when the actual service will launch, outside of NYC. The beta group will be using the DVB-H HTC-manufactured smart phone. If you ask me, this is a ruse to get carriers interested since they haven’t got anyone till normal channels yet…
