After a year of delays Verizon Wireless and TiVo have announced that TiVo Mobile application for BREW-capable cellphones is finally available to Verizon Wireless users. The application allows TiVo owners to remotely control their TiVo Series2 or Series3 digital TV recorder and costs just $2 per month.
Initially TiVo Mobile was planned to be issued in the summer of last year. Verizon Wireless says that the reason for the holdup was a technological delay.
TiVo already offers a similar application for smartphone users.
The release of TiVo Mobile underscores the growing connection between cellphones and TV services.
Also Verizon Wireless announced it will sell Novatel’s EV-DO Revision A PC card. The device costs $180 with a service agreement.
