Operator Softbank in Japan announced that they will ship a tv-tuner together with a extra battery charger with the iPhone 3G. The 1-Seg tv tuner will deliver the tv signal via Wi-Fi. For this to work you will need to insert a small receiver in your bag or clothing and you will be able to watch 3H non-stop tv.

Engadget.com is reporting that Japan’s third-largest mobile phone operator now has rights to Apple’s iPhone. As has been the norm recently, the announcement is a one-liner without any details related to exclusivity (NTT DoCoMo and KDDI still can has a chanceburger) or model… though it should be noted that Softbank is a W-CDMA (UMTS 3G), not GSM/EDGE carrier. Softbank only says that they’ll be selling the iPhone “later this year.”
