Orange to Introduce Hi-Def Mobile TV

Orange has announced plans to launch high definition mobile TV in Europe. France, to be more specific. The service will be available on Orange’s 3G+ UMA platform through a new and exclusive handset from LG, the LG Secret KF757. The device will be the first UMA handset to include the Orange TV Player, Orange’s mobile TV software that will enable users to channel surf and consult a guide to programs showing on each channel.

In September this year, Orange announced the world’s first 3G+ UMA platform. The network intelligently chooses the best connection available – Orange Livebox, WiFi or 3G+ – offering optimal TV quality more cost-effectively when in a WiFi environment. With the new LG Secret KF757, Orange is extending its portfolio of 3G+ UMA devices to deliver the best personal TV experience possible with high definition mobile television.

Orange’s 3G+ UMA TV service will be available in France on the LG Secret KF757 via the Orange TV Player software or the Orange World portal, and is already available on the Sony Ericsson G705u (a variation of the W705 Walkman handset that was launched last month) via the Orange World portal.
