Helsinki -- Mobile phone maker Nokia announced this week that it plans to work with Finnish broadcasters and mobile service providers to begin sending commercial TV shows to mobile phones by 2004. The Finnish company, currently the No. 1 handset maker in the world, said that by next fall it would employ the Internet protocol datacast (IPDC) to offer an initial 500 users in the Helsinki region trial TV shows. Nokia Ventures' Timo Teimonen said the pilot program was "a world class example of cooperation between telecommunications and media industry to further research the opportunities of broadcast services to mobile phones."
