Axel Technologies presents: Enabling Mobile Tv success stories Tomi Jalonen VP Sales, EMEA
NO BIG SUCCESS STORIES SO FAR • Despite the huge potential and market forecasts there haven’t been real success stories yet except in Japan and to some extent in Korea (both free-to-air) • Conflict of the industrial players’ interest is the main reason for the lack of success stories, not the lack of end user interest • Industry has argued on standards, frequencies, business models and content protection issues • End users are interested in services and cool handsets
COMMERCIAL SERVICES 1) 96% mobile phones 2) 40% phones, 40% car devices, 20% PC, PDA, etc. 3) All new phones ISDB-T enabled 4) As of September 2008
DEVICES ARE MISSING • “You can have a car of any color you want, as long as it is black.” • It is not realistic to even think about mobile TV success story with only one or two devices. • The mobile TV functionality is an important feature, but still, it is just one feature. People are individuals, they want to choose the phone from large selection. • The wide range of different devices is one of the most important elements in successful Mobile TV business BUT, how to get wide range of devices?
IT DOESN’T HAVE TO BE A MOBILE PHONE • End Users are also interested in • USB dongles for laptops • MIDs and NetBooks • PMPs, PNDs • portable TVs
STANDARD BASED SOLUTIONS REQUIRED • Mobile operators are desperately looking for mobile TV devices, especially for lower price points. • The device manufacturers are looking for high volumes • This is possible only with widely accepted, open standards. • The mass market requires multi-standard and multi-delivery solutions, such as OMA BCAST and JSR-272
