The annual Milia/MipTV event opens in Cannes tomorow and runs for 5 days at the Palais des Festivals. The conference is mostly about content providers, such as film studios, and content consumers, such as network TV companies, and the phone companies, mixed together with various DRM tech firms. Some hardware does manage to find its way into the fray, such as the Samsung SCH-B200. 
The B200 is an improved version of the B100 noted here previously. As before, the main feature of this phone is the ability to receive broadcasts of commercial TV services for mobile phones via satellite. The camera and screen are the about the same, but the form factor has changed to slider with a rotating screen. Milia website. SAMSUNG Unveils its New Satellite DMB phone.

I wonder how much conflict there is between say, movie content providers and phone companies. Content producers must miss the old days of huge DVD sales and giant network TV ratings.
Yeah, I don’t think anyone has found a truly effective way of monetizing mobile content yet.
TV still makes a lot of money for content produces though, HC5, especially cable channels.
