First, it was our mobile phones. Now, the latest mobile device to get the TV treatment is the Sony PSP. Engadget has a hands-on on this latest development. Using the 1-SEG digital TV tuner add-on accessory, the PSP is transformed from being an ordinary gaming console to a mobile entertainment console. The PSP already boasts of a number of multimedia functionality and adding TV functionality is just icing on the cake. Since the TV signals are in digital format, you’re sure to have clear and crisp images similar or even better than cable television. The TV tuner receives 1-SEG digital signals which is, unfortunately, only commercially available in Japan. So don’t go looking to make this work in the Philippines as the Mobile TV service here runs on DVB-H, a standard totally different from 1-SEG. But who knows, maybe some scheming media company is already thinking of importing the technology to our countryâ€
Please let us know if this psptv tuner would work on our local channels. like GMA7 or ABS-CBN
please post some pictures
Not at the moment, though there is some news that ABS-CBN is going digital and it's rumored that it's going to be standard definition TV broadcast in a digital singal, which basically means that it would be compatible with the 1-SEG PSP TV tuner. Unless broadcasts are made through a compatible format, you won't be able to receive content on device similar to how DVB-H phones won't receive analog signals from local channels.
Heres the digital tv news of ABS-CBN
when will this 1 seg tuner be released in the phils.?
kaylan kaya lalabas yan sa pinas!!!! daming bibili nyan pag labas nyan d2 sa pinas malamang isa nko dun sa bibili nyan matagal ko nang hinihintay na lumabas yan ehh sana naman gumawa na din kau nyan agad d2 sa pinas un lang po ty

I doubt if it will official be released in the Philippines anytime soon as it would be useless in our country as no one is offering 1-SEG digital TV broadcast services yet.
If the service becomes available, then maybe we can see this product soon in the local market.
Bah. I'm saddened by the number of morons thinking that that 1-Seg TV tuner for the PSP will work here. It's either they're didn't read the damn article or they're just too stupid to read.
Sa mga tao dyan na hingi marunong mag-English, ang sinasabi ng article na to na yung 1-Seg tuner ay HINDI gagana dito dahil walang ganyang broadcast medium dito.
Sometimse, I just feel that the media should end up writing in a simpler manner for the majority of the population. Maybe it's a matter of reaching more and making them understand. But then again, most of the guys in the media are obviously schooled and they might be too wary of their pride to output something much less than what they're capable of.
how much do the psp cost?(in peso)
1-SEG digital TV tuner nice.. but not working in phil omg..... when to released in phil and i wish that device is working here in phil if released this device

i have my 1 seg tv tuner for psp from japan..how can i use this here?does it work here?
Nope, it doesn't work here in the Philippines. There's no service that's compatible with the device running in the country.
Yeah I totally agree to Alan
bibili p lng kc ako ng psp slim, meron na kasama tv card tuner.. its bnew
bago pa gumana yan dito, aabutin muna tayo ng isang milenyo.. haha.. joke.. seriously, our country is a bit left behind when it comes to technology.. we only know what's "in" but we don't have them.. sucks..
there is one already... you're not aware of the test broadcast doing by the CEBS, Inc. This network is doing a test broadcast already using ISDB-T where 1-seg is a part of it already. The test broadcast is everyday, from 6am to 12mn. If there's anyone who owns one already, you can try it...
Hi! I would like to know about where did you bought that PSP TV tuner? What I mean is aside from cyberspace shopping sites, where specifically in the Philippines did you buy that?
And also, I would like to know where I can buy PSP-290 GPS Receivers here in the Philippines.
Your immediate comply with this message would be highly appreciated.
Thank you.
