E-Ten to launch mobile TV handsets supporting DVB-T standard in 2008
E-Ten Information Systems plans to launch own-brand mobile TV handsets in 2008, according to company chairman Hwang Shan-rong.
Initially the handsets will support only the DVB-T (Digital Video Broadcasting - Terrestrial) standard, but the company also plans to introduce models supporting multiple broadcasting standards later on since the chipset solutions currently available are able to support multiple technologies, Hwang indicated.
Hwang also pointed out that the number of mobile TV subscribers is expected to top 500 million in 2010, compared to the current number of around 30 million.
Meanwhile, E-Ten reported that its after-tax profits for the third quarter of this year reached NT$170 million (US$5.2 million), which translate into a net EPS (earnings per share) of NT$1.8.
For the first three quarters of 2007, after-tax profits totaled NT$421 million, or an EPS of NT$2.65, according to company data.
