Yamgo Launches Live TV and Video on the iPad

May 28, 2010 - PRLog -- Mobile TV Network Yamgo has released a version of its popular live streaming service especially for the iPad coinciding with the much hyped and anticipated launch of the new Apple Device in the UK.
The beta release by Yamgo, the mobile TV and video specialists, is an upgrade to its iPhone service and means that all users of the hottest consumer gadget can now enjoy mobile entertainment at the same quality as users of Apple’s iPhone.  Yamgo’s solution also provides broadcasters and content owners with a simple way of monetising content across all mobile devices.  
Unlike other iPad TV services Yamgo’s solution uses the existing video player in the user’s mobile device and therefore does not require an application download. Users simply go to http://www.yamgo.mobi on their iPad, register and start enjoying free live TV.  UK consumers can enjoy a wide selection of live channels and global users have access to thousands of video clips from football to comedy.
The iPad, released at a time when consumer interest in mobile technology is growing rapidly, is widely expected to dominate the industry over the coming months. Yamgo’s pioneering beta service will make it possible for iPad users to experience mobile entertainment in the same way as Android, Nokia and iPhone viewers.
Yamgo CEO and Founder Ian Mullins explained, “The larger screen, portability and ease of use of the iPad combined with computing power make the device ideal for mobile TV and video.  I believe Apple has created a new market segment for mobile entertainment and the launch of our beta service means iPad users can now access an ever increasing number of live UK channels and a constantly updated catalogue of videos.”
