Verizon Wireless Offers Smartphone Video Service

 
Verizon today announced "Verizon Video," a new version of the company's video-on-demand application for mobile phones. According to the company's press release, the application provides Verizon Wireless customers access to more than 250 current, full-episode TV shows (including NFL games) from all the major broadcast networks. According to the product website, the service will cost you $3 per day or $10 per month in addition to your existing plan, and is only available for select phones Interestingly Verizon has made the decision to not allow this to work over Wi-Fi, meaning users will often run into their monthly caps and Verizon's $10 per gigabyte overage fee which -- aside from trying to compete with Netflix -- is likely the whole idea.
