Motorola Prepping Paperback Book-Size TV for CES

HORSHAM, Pa. — Motorola, Inc. will introduce its Mobile TV DVBH compatible DH01 device at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas next week. The lightweight, pocket-sized personal media player can play live TV, on-demand clips and programs saved on a DVR.

“Mobile TV is expected to grow significantly in 2008 and beyond and Motorola is in a unique position to mobilize the TV experience to deliver broadcast and personalized content wherever and whenever consumers want,” Navin Mehta, vice president of Mobile TV and Applications Services for Motorola, said.

“The Motorola Mobile TV DH01 is the ultimate personal media player – it allows consumers to enjoy their viewing experience at their convenience. In other words the entertainment experience is changing from ‘broadcast time’ to ‘my time’.”

Smaller than a paperback novel, the DH01 has a 4.3 inch wide quarter video graphics array screen that supports up to 16 million colors. It also includes a five-minute memory buffer for a pause function during live TV viewing. It is non-proprietary and supports the DVBH broadcasting standard in addition to open standards interfaces across devices, networks and application service platforms.

The DH01, which plays back video at 25 frames per second, supports live digital video broadcast, can record TV on an installed memory card and has a rechargeable battery that can provide up to four hours of playback.

The DH01 can be seen at the Motorola booth in Central Hall at the Consumer Electronics Show, which runs Jan. 7-10 in Las Vegas.
