Smart suspends ‘myTV’

THE wireless unit of Philippine Long Distance Telephone Co. (PLDT) has suspended the trials for the mobile TV service it intends to rollout.

In a filing with the National Telecommunications Commission (NTC), Smart Communications Inc. said it wants the regulator to dismiss the three year-old complaint filed by a cable TV industry group against the company since “myTV demo/trial service has been suspended indefinitely effective April 1 2010.”
