V CAST

V CAST

V CAST is a 3G EV-DO network created by Verizon Wireless to deliver audio, video, and entertainment content. The typical download speed is between 400 and 700 kilobits per second with burst speeds of up to 2 megabits per second. V CAST provides music downloads and streaming video clips, which can be saved to the phone or a removable memory card, though they cannot be read by other phones or computers, since they are heavily protected by digital rights management software based on Windows Media Video 9 and developed by PacketVideo [http://www.packetvideo.com/] . There is buffering before the video stream is played and possibly during video playback, depending on the quality of the connection. V CAST is implemented as a permanently installed BREW application on a V CAST compatible phone.

V CAST prevents video playback and menu navigation if there is no EV-DO coverage available.

V CAST is one of the few mobile phone-based systems on which more advanced games, including those with 3-D graphics (similar in quality to the original Sony PlayStation or the Sega Saturn), can be played. Most, but not all, V CAST games require airtime for use, but most of the V CAST plans give users unlimited airtime for all videos and games.

The V CAST service plans provide both basic and premium content, and the service provides users with the ability to upload music from personal computers to cellphones -- some with the help of third-party software such as BitPim.
