Yamgo to Launch Free Mobile TV

Yamgo, an extreme sports mobile TV provider, joined forces with Tom Horn, a Slovakian mobile software developer that doesn’t seem to have any Web presence whatsoever. They just announced an upcoming, global, mobile video sharing service, as well as a completely free mobile TV network.

The new service will include a video sharing community (located at www.yamgo.tv) that’s also accessible on cell phones. Customers will be able to record videos on their phones, and then upload and share them directly, without having to use a computer. Meanwhile, Yamgo’s mobile TV network will supposedly run on any phone, even those that run on slower data networks.

This all sounds (to be blunt) impossible. It will be interesting to see if they pull it off.
