Verizon said it would release details on pricing and availability closer to the launch of the service.<br \/>\n[&#8230;]<br \/>\nMany of the channels on the V Cast service will be live feeds from major broadcast partners, including NBC, CBS and Fox. Recorded full-length programs will also be offered, such as episodes of late-night talk shows.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>If they keep the cost down on this, it will be a good service.  The problem is that they usually don&#8217;t. If you are paying for cable already, why pay again?  You&#8217;d pay for convenience, to be able to watch TV in your car but the question is how much would you be willing to pay for that convenience?  To me, the cost for stuff like that is usually prohibitive.<\/p>\n<div class=\"tag_list\">Tags: <span class=\"tags\"><a href=\"http:\/\/technorati.com\/tag\/Verizon\" rel=\"tag\">Verizon<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/technorati.com\/tag\/CES\" rel=\"tag\">CES<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/technorati.com\/tag\/cellphone\" rel=\"tag\">cellphone<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/technorati.com\/tag\/TV\" rel=\"tag\">TV<\/a><\/span><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>More news from CES and this one sounds great to me: Verizon Wireless customers will soon be able to watch live TV over a network constructed by Qualcomm Inc.
