Disney, ABC Embraces FLO TV

When I was a wee lad, I used to think having a portable television was awesome, or using the vernacular of the day, “totally wicked.” I used to imagine sitting in class and watching daytime shows like The Price is Right or reruns of Leave it to Beaver. Being a kid I didn’t have much of a cash flow so I never purchased one of those gadgets nor did the portable televisions really catch on. Maybe it was a timing issue. Now, with more people on the go, perhaps mobile TV content can finally make its breakthrough. But is it something consumers have a need for?

Disney Channel and ABC are embracing FLO TV, the leader in hand-held televisions from Qualcomm. With ABC now attached, the company can claim that four of the major broadcasters have now virtually endorsed this product.
