There are some interesting parallels here; LG basically transplanted a boob tube tuner into its Lotus (http://engadgetmobile.com/tag/lg,lotus), while Samsung elected to take its Android-powered Moment (http://www.engadget.com/tag/samsung,moment) and retrofit the new circuitry. It's little more than a proof of concept for now, but by the end of the quarter, Sprint and Samsung look to roll out trial units to customers in Baltimore and Washington, DC.
