More and more stories in the media about TV being distributed to cell
phones via some sort of internet or data connection.

Why don't they just build VHF/UHF tuners into these phones so that you
can watch local TV off-air FOR FREE! AS MUCH AS YOU WANT! WITH NO
MOTION OR COMPRESSION ARTEFACTS!

Radio Shack sells a palm-sized color LCD TV for about $100. Why can't
they build that functionality into a cell phone?

Heck, are there any cell phones that also have Am/FM radios built into
them?
