Has anyone tried using the new FLOTV handheld TV that just came out the past few months?

Looked at their website coverage map. Most metro areas are covered. But looks sparse out in the boonies where most folks camp. Cheap enough at $10-15 a month. Some personal DVD players can be purchased with the receiver which operates on UHF channel 55. It is encrypted so it cannot be received on a standard or digital TV.

They do have good coverage in Florida, so it might be a good alternative for "snow birds".

If a Canadian Snow Bird has Bell TV at home (satellite) all (s)he need do is bring a receiver from home and buy (or bring, I suppose) an antenna and horn. They sell for about US$80, IIRC.

You will get every channel you get at home.

This will allow you to keep up with shows like "Coronation Street" while you are down there.
