Anticipating the trend of 2008, Motorola announced on Thursday that they will be introducing DH01, a device that can play live TV, on-demand video clips and programs saved on digital video recorders.

Here are some of the features:

• 4.3-inch screen
• Video at 25fps
• Users can pause live TV for up to five minutes
• Rechargeable Battery Life of up to 4 hours
• Expandable memory slots that allows storage of up to 90 minutes of video

There isn’t any word on the price but Motorola has confirmed that it will be launching at the end of month and sold through television broadcasters, consumer electronics retailers and wireless carriers.

From my personal view, the 2 most useful applications for Live TV would be news and sports. Other than that, there shouldn’t be much need for watching dramas or movies as there are better alternatives.

Probably the coolest factor for the DH01 is its pause function which has a 5-minute memory buffer. It’s a really useful application where you can replay the footage you’ve missed due to interruptions like phone calls.

Live TV on mobile devices is definitely a useful technology and it would be interesting to see how the trends unfold. This is especially so on Apple’s next development of the the iPod.
