How about portable television sets?

Okay - there are television sets that can be carried around. But you cannot watch TV while on the move (besides those small ones installed in cars). LG just announced that they produced a "15 inch portable wireless LCD television which offers clear visuals everywhere at home while on the move. When the transmitter of this product is connected to an antenna, DVD player, or VCR, the transmitter sends radio signals to the monitor, producing the TV picture. One can watch television anywhere within 35 meters from where the transmitter is placed.".

It is a bit heavy, so, with 4 kg - but it is a start. Imagine, in 2 or 5 years time, we will carry TV like we carry PDAs - but then, we have PocketTV already anyway. So, no sure, what is so special at this one. Any idea?

Update:

We just received a link that shows us that "Nokia Finnish mobile phone powerhouse Nokia unveiled several new handsets at the company's annual Destination Nokia event held in Bangkok." Specifically, the model Nokia 7710 is standing out with numerous features, but also, that "its widescreen format is perfectly suited to watching live digital TV broadcasts.
Nokia promised such a service, dubbed DVB-H (Digital Video Broadcast for Handsets), would revolutionise how we access entertainment on the move." Thanks Joey for the information.

Here is the phone:
