Cellular News reports that by the end of 2007, there will be over four million subscribers to mobile broadcast services, and that number jumping to an impressive 514 million by 2011. [...] [...] With all of our talk about the Quickplayer and how excited we are about it, it’s news like this that helps us justify why we get so lovey-dovey over mobile broadcasting.

The device, if you haven’t heard plays streaming audio from content providers like ABC, the Wall Street Journal, and Clear Channel. We’ll have video of the application up shortly, but first things first: the Weekend Contest.

We’ve talked about the QuickPlayer for BlackBerry time and time again, but as the title reads, we got a little more intimate with this app from QuickPlay today, and let us tell you, we’re all smiles over here. With the news of exciting (and streaming) content like ABC News and the like being added to the QuickPlayer, the salivating started, and once we were able to sit down and explore, the auditory awesomeness was slightly overwhelming.

Yesterday RIM and Verizon announced the BlackBerry 8703e, which, as it turns out, is basically a CDMA version of the 8700c, which Cingular has been shovelling out since last year. This little tidbit (see image above) was sent to us this morning. Look at what’s floating around on Verizon’s development server - a nice little Flash feautre on the 8703e. Obviously, since it’s on the development side, it’s not operational just yet, but looks pretty promising. [...] [...] More news out of CTIA.
