Though Nepal Telecom had also launched their TV portal from the very beginning of NT 3G services, it is quite costly as there are no any data packs for the video only. With this kind of TV packs, it is much likely to have a new competition in the video or TV data packs. This sort of service is very good in promoting local contents through the mobile broadband. We see a bigger prospect in the usage of broadband, other than going to internet for every information and entertainment.
