Hands-On With the LG VX9400 and V CAST Mobile

lgmobiletv.jpgI got a chance to play around with the new LG VX9400 running Verizon's brand-spanking new V CAST Mobile TV here at Digital Experience at CES, and I must say that I was pleasantly surprised with the quality of the service and the phone. The screen swings out, providing a decent-sized-for-a-phone viewing area for your TV watchin'. The stream is very smooth and crisp, with no buffering, jerking, or digital artifacts that I could see while I played with it. Currently the service gives you eight channels, including the major networks, MTV, ESPN, Nickelodeon, and Comedy Central. New networks will probably be added in the future, as the small selection at launch is a product of licensing rather than technology. Overall I was more impressed with the Mobile TV that I expected to be, and look forward to seeing how well this tech catches on. '€"Adam Frucci
