Beginning next month, South Koreans will be able to watch free TV programs on their mobile handsets not merely in Seoul and its vicinity but also across the country.
The Ministry of Information and Communication gave licenses to KBS and MBC, the country’s two top TV outlets, to start nationwide mobile broadcasting called terrestrial digital multimedia broadcasting (T-DMB).
The Ministry will also push for the new-type of mobile TV ads, as well as different measures to increase the number of compatible handsets on the market. (via: The Korea Times)

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
