MobiTV and Intel said they will work together to “optimize” the PC version of MobiTV’s live-television service for notebooks and other mobile-computing devices that run Intel processors.

The companies announced the partnership at the Intel Developer Forum in Beijing.

Also this week, Intel and Tandberg Television said they were jointly developing a system for content owners to deliver broadband content to PCs and other Intel-based devices.

"We are pleased to announce this collaboration with Intel to deliver a live television service optimized for Intel notebooks and the new category of mobile Internet devices," MobiTV vice president of business development Ray DeRenzo said. "MobiTV and Intel will work with [PC manufacturers] to deliver a true out-of-the-box television experience."
