DVB-H does not work well

Two articles were published about test on DVB-H in Germany and Italy :

Interesting article on The Register today:

Particularly:

"But Crown Castle in the US, the only member of the Mobile DTV alliance
that is in any danger of having a genuine DVB-H network, is miles
behind its planned roll-out. It had hoped to name its mobile operator
partners by the end of 2005 and here in the second half of 2006 it has
still to name one."

and

"But despite the Mobile DTV Alliance show of what is a strengthening
force, and it says it will shortly move to certification and
interoperability testing, it still has no operator backed DVB-H service
in the US, and it is no clearer to having a coherent business model
than it was when it was launched."

And what does:

"Using DVB-H this could be used to offer something like 25 to 32 TV
channels with plenty of room left over for audio and clipcasting, and
would make a formidable opponent for Qualcomm in its own backyard."

do for hopes of high quality (I should say, I've no idea, but 25-32
sounds like a lot).

It's almost as if the while business is a *lot* more complex than just
saying "*There's* a lot of bandwidth and a shiny new system - lets use
that"
