hi to all

am having sony ericsson k750i , is it possible to view live tv in my handset

iam having airtel i hav gprs service i tried the CNBC live streaming i cant see clearly

what is meaning of EDGE??? my friends r telling that if u hav a edge feature in u r mobile u can view live tv clearly !!! is it true ????

edge is absent in my sek750i

is it any other possibility to view live tv in my SEk750i???

Streaming does look good in EDGE enabled devices because of higher data transfer speeds, but about the CNBC link that you mentioned, i tried it with an EDGE enabled handset (6630) and it looked just as bad. Maybe the link is like that only.

Actually...

Ordinary GPRS is about 30–80 kbit/s.
Refer http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_Packet_Radio_Service

EDGE can carry data speeds up to 236.8 kbit/s for 4 timeslots
Refer http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enhanced_Data_Rates_for_GSM_Evolution

So, its no wonder that EDGE mobiles offer higher speed. But, the ordinary rtsp
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rtsp straming protocals provides quite small frame rate , 3G provides closest clear video streaming due to higher speed. So the video streaming by airtel might be just much as u see... if u want to get closest to fine, get a 3g( in india?) or for a ok level , edge(available).

as airtel's only providing gprs [atleast in my place] u wont get a clear live streaming.....

but audio streaming [mundu radio] works fine
