Now that more cities are getting MediaFLO TV coverage since the Digital Transition, it only makes sense that more MediaFLO capable devices will be released. Enter the Samsung U450, which recently passed the FCC and will be headed to Verizon. It is listed as a 1X CDMA device (lacking EVDO) with Bluetooth, MP3 player, MediaFLO, SMS, and a 1.3MP camera. Since this looks to be an entry-level phone, maybe carriers will start lowering the price of their VCast Mobile TV service? Even the FLO TV President thinks the current price is too much.
