Qualcomms MediaFLO

Re blog from

Qualcomm says that their MediaFlo division is going to build a new high-speed wireless network specifically for downloading stuff like audio and video content. It’s meant to complement, rather than replace, the regular high-speed 3G cellular networks that are being built out right now, but the upshot for Qualcomm is that cellphone makers’ll have to buy their chipset if they want their handsets to be able to access the network. The big unanswered questions, though, are whether people actually want to watch video on their cellphones, and if they do, whether a new wireless network to do that is really needed.
