just so its clear....our phone DOES NOT come with this capability....this is a Modded Moment......altho they say they are handing some out for testing...so maybe one day we could see something like this.

Wow I just saw a video on www.phonescoop.com of a demo of the DTV on the Moment. Now mind you that it is a "modded" Moment, but WTH? I thought we had gotten away from antennas like that? They removed the camera to fit the antenna and DTV receiver. They say that they will be releasing 300 of these Moments in the Baltimore area for testing and that the actual release will have a camera and an antenna that will be removable and fit in a holder like a stylus. HUH? That seems so 80's/90's to me. Isn't there a better way? Like an antenna that at least telescopes in and out of the phone. Plugging in an antenna and removing it all the time seems like it is going to cause a lot of wear and tear on the parts and a lot of returns when they break. I have started looking at DVB-H phones from Europe and it does not appear that many of them have external antennas. Any confirmation on that?

If you watch the video, It is digital tv. That is what everybody broadcasts in. So anywhere that you have a local tv station, you'll be able to pick it up. This is going to be pretty cool.
