Germany offers terrestrial digital multimedia broadcasting (TDMB) services during the Worldcup. The difference: you have full access to digital broadband services even while moving fast. Ever tried to have a call in a train? Not that easy. Because the train is in motion. Digital packaged services are even more difficult to manage. Mobile till now meant you can be somewhere. Now it's really possible to be "mobile".

In Germany, TDMB programs will be broadcast in eight major cities including Berlin, Munich and Cologne, and will be expanded to 12 cities within the year and nationwide next year.

Through mobile phones that support the technology and special receivers that can be attached to portable multimedia players or laptop computers, users will be able to view data contents such as World Cup-related information, transportation and travel information as well as live streaming of local broadcasts.

The network technology is from Korea.

Korea is also taking the initiative in providing the devices on which to watch TDMB.
