Belkin Announces Availability of Dyle Mobile TV Receiver – May 17, 2013– Playa Vista, USA (Techreleased) – Belkin, creator of people-inspired technology products, today announced the availability of its receiver accessory for Dyle mobile TV which enables live broadcast television content on an Apple iPhone or iPad. Paired with the Dyle™ TV app, the new Dyle mobile TV receiver makes live broadcast television available, without an Internet connection, to the millions of iOS device users in 37 major markets across the country.
Dyle Mobile TV Receiver
“While mobile broadcast technology has been around for a while, the Belkin receiver accessory with Dyle mobile TV enables consumers to receive local broadcast television on a device they already own,” said Nate Kraft, director of product management at Belkin. “It’s plug-and-play simplicity, with no wireless data limits or the need for Wi-Fi. Consumers can enjoy live TV anywhere—from the waiting room to the bus stop.”
Weighing less than six ounces and less than half the size of a deck of cards, the Belkin receiver with Dyle mobile TV is a compact and portable accessory that easily fits into a pocket or small purse. To enable, simply plug the accessory into the iPhone or iPad’s 30-pin connector, extend the flexible titanium antenna for maximum reception coverage and launch the Dyle TV app, currently available for free in the App Store. The Dyle TV app features an easy-to-navigate channel guide that shows the user which local stations are available in each market for users to watch live, local television. Channel availability will vary by location; for more information, please see the Dyle service map at: http://www.dyle.tv/coverage-map/.
“The Belkin accessory, in combination with the Dyle app, turns the large existing base of iOS smartphone and tablet devices in the market today into portable TVs,” said Salil Dalvi and Erik Moreno, co-general managers of MCV. “We have worked hard to amass a large coalition of broadcasting partners to offer live programming that consumers want. It’s an exciting development in the progress of mobile TV as we continue to give consumers choice across various mobile devices and platforms.”
The Dyle mobile TV receiver (F5L110) retails for $129.99 and will be available today at Belkin.com and Amazon.com, and comes with a neoprene carrying case. Dyle mobile TV services are available immediately without a subscription fee, which is subject to change at any time (coverage varies in participating markets, not all stations are available in all markets).
