Now Switch On Your iPhone for Live TV Show Wednesday January 06, 2010 18:30:55

FLO TV, a wholly owned subsidiary of Qualcomm, and accessory company ‘mophie’ have announced today (Jan. 6) they are teaming to create a series of products that will bring live mobile TV to the iPhone and iPod touch platforms. The products are expected to begin shipping in the first half of this year.  

The partnership aims to bring FLO TV’s mobile TV service to the mophie juice pack, letting consumers view live entertainment, sports, and news from the world's top entertainment brands on their iPhone and iPod touch. 

"We are uniting our vision of advancing mobile TV across a range of devices and platforms with mophie's unrivaled expertise in designing intelligent cases for Apple users," said Bill Stone, president of FLO TV.  

"Together, our solution will be a true live mobile TV product available to iPhone and iPod touch users." 

The agreement between mophie and FLO TV reflects the growing demand for mobile television and FLO TV's target to bring its service to any small screen, says FLO TV.  

The new products will integrate mophie's case design with a built-in FLO TV receiver that allows iPhone and iPod touch users the ability to watch live television at the flip of a switch. 

Consumers can also utilize the device as back-up battery power in between charges.
