The commission said only a common European standard will create a pan-European mobile TV market. The DVB-H standard is backed by handset makers Nokia, Motorola, Philips, Sagem, Sony, Ericsson, Samsung as well as operators Vodafone, O2 and T-mobile. It is the most widely used standard for mobile TV in the EU and is non-mandatory. Big EU governments such as Germany, Britain, Spain and the Netherlands argued that it should be left to the market to decide which technology emerges in the end.   Time:2008-03-28 Source:NaviForum Shanghai News Center Relative
