ehm and what is new? nobody wants tv anymore, thats why they all dropped it...

some people would not agree with you, when every smart phone or tablet could not only be a a smart Device and now be a TV for real cheap for low cost to add to any new phone or tablet or hell now Pc's right on the mobo and cut down on costs in existing TV's cost for the chips they use, which makes more room for other chips and functions you may want to build into the electronic device.

smaller size is nice, but its nothing new, we had tv phones 10 years ago, the people dont want it, thats why its gone.

we've had a phone with a digital tuner before? 

i've rejected tv on a phone before because

A) streaming things like netflix or whatever doesn't work because my phone's data connection is much too slow.

B) even if it worked my data plan isn't large enough to stream anything without paying ridiculously expensive rates.

C) downloading something in advance so that i can watch without streaming is too labor intensive and phone storage is too small to put much on it anyways.

 

a digital tuner seems like it would get around all those issues.  i would only get publically availible tv like nbc or cbs but i only have rabbit ears on my home tv anways so it's the same delivery i have there.  sounds good to me.

Exactly, those Tuners are not really made for North american market, let along are freaking small as this and has no where near the Quality or built for digital content of today. i have had plenty "java" based phones and some smart phone's with these so called good Tv tuners..No way as good as this one.

And to top it off no data needed.its completely over the air ! no data, thats 24 TV channels without need of cable!
