Tiesto "Just Be" Release party to be broadcasted on cell phones

Okay I just got this from the official DJ Tiesto Newsletter:

�Just Be� release party on your mobile phone

The official Dutch release party at the HMH in Amsterdam will take place Thursday evening after a trip with the �Just Be� train from Ti�sto�s hometown Breda via several stations in between to Amsterdam.
Not only the Dutch fans can enjoy this special Ti�sto �Just Be� day but for all the fans over the world we have a big surprise. We're currently working very very hard to get the �Just Be� release party at the HMH in Amsterdam broadcasted via mobile phone (GPRS). The broadcast will be a video broadcast, so you can actually see what's going on at the party. If you have a compatible phone that is. There still are some minor obstacles to get by, but we're confident that we will have them out of the way before tomorrow night, so you can view and listen to the party on your phone.
As soon as we have all the details available for you we will place a link on the www.tiesto.com homepage.

From the international release on 20th of May on you can also listen to all the tracks from the album @ www.tiesto.com.

But...of course here in Canada we are so damn behind and obvioulsy have no such services. Besides I bet the cost of listening and watching this live would be insane...only for crazed fans i guess. However I believe this is a huge step forward in technology and this will revolutionize how we enjoy music!

we do hav such devices.. virtually every new GSM fone on the market has GPRS support.. the cost and bandwidth factor is really the issue..

ps. GO FIDO GO!

Hey speaking of fido I'm considering switching lately...anyone has any issues with them or recommendations or...?

*EDIT*
Fido has the following GPRS Rates:
Pay per use - 3C/KB
500KB - $5
5MB - $25
Unlimited Data - $50

And they have a wicked new Moroloa phone comming out that I'd love to get too...but it doesnt have analogue which means i'll be FCUK'D if i'm out of the city area...
