Sony Ericsson, in their newest endeavor to promote media through its mobile devices, have announce the launch of their new Pocket TV show. The Pocket TV is actually a series of self-commissioned shows that is made available via Sony Ericsson’s WAP site, pockettvshow.mobi. This is also available on YouTube. Sony Ericsson is making this move in order to promote mobile entertainment, in view of its latest multimedia devices such as Satio and Aino.
Each 15-minute show is divided into 90-second segments for download through your mobile phone. Each of these clips can also be viewed and forwarded as standalone attachments as well. The first few shows have featured The Veronicas, Paloma Faith and Marilyn Manson, with many more interested ones promised in the near future.
Of course, it still remains to be seen if users would be willing to use their data allowances to pay up for this service. Besides, would you really wanna check your cellphone when you already have YouTube content for ready access? Send in your comments.
