Verizon and ABC have just locked down a deal to deliver a bunch of full-length on-demand TV shows to mobile through V CAST. Sprint has been enjoying a partnership with ABC for awhile now, and now VZ’s customers will also be able to tune in to:

  • ABC Entertainment: “Desperate Housewives,” “Grey’s Anatomy,” “Lost” and “Ugly Betty”
  • ABC News: “Nightline,” “This Week with George Stephanopoulos,” “World News with Charles Gibson” and “20/20″
  • Disney Channel: “Hannah Montana,” “The Suite Life on Deck” and “Phineas and Ferb”

Not a bad selection at all, and expanded ESPN clips will also be available for the sports nuts out there. $15.00/month gets you all the goodies.
