BlackBerry gets full-length TV shows

News - By: pdaBlast! Staff - April 01, 2009


It appears the rumors were true. BlackBerry Bold and Curve 8900 users will be able to get full-length TV shows via QuickPlay Media's PrimeTime2Go. Available in the App World, PrimTime2Go will offer video over WiFi. This is somewhat limiting because you'll need WiFi coverage to watch your shows. Other carriers like Sprint and AT&T have video options that work over their cellular network.

QuickPlay will charge a monthly subscription fee of $7.99 for its PrimeTime2Go service. The service will be available on the BlackBerry Bold and the BlackBerry Curve 8900 models.

UPDATE: It turns out you do not need to be connected to WiFi to watch your shows, but only to download the show. Once the show is downloaded you can watch it at any time.
