AT&T pushes back MediaFlo until 2008

Bad news for everyone anxiously awaiting the rollout of AT&T’s MediaFlo broadcast TV service. It’s now been pushed back to early 2008. Originally slated to debut later this year, the service has run into a couple of bumps in the road. That should be expected. It’s tough to hold true to a timeline made back in February, especially when the service is as expansive as MediaFlo. The problem, though, is that the longer AT&T waits, the longer they fall behind. Verizon started offering MediaFlo-like services in March, so AT&T could end up being a year behind it’s biggest competitor.
