Will all future EVDO phones have Verizon TV? Including Blackberrys and Palms and Windows Mobile? And all basic EVDO phones? I know with Sprint it's on all their EVDO models, even the RAZR

Or is there an update you can do to your VZW EVDO phone to get TV? I got a RAZR, 8700, and a Pearl. It's included in the Blackberry plan or Unlimited 44.99 plan, right?

Last time I checked, Sprint's MobileTV does run through EVDO. However, it is streaming video.

The difference is that Verizon Wireless (and now AT&T) run on MediaFlo, which is a seperate technology from their respective 3G technology, and MediaFlo's TV is broadcasted and not streaming.

Regarding PDA's - my friend uses SlingBox mobile to watch streaming TV on his PDA. I'm not too sure if it's offered for RIM's products though. I do know that you need a Slingbox account to use Slingbox Mobile.
