If leaked sources are to be believed, AT&T may break out a new mobile TV service courtesy of Qualcomm's MediaFLO in the form of the very sleek and sexy LG Vu. RCR Wireless News reports that AT&T is going to launch the live broadcast service with two exclusive channels as early as February 5. Verizon Wireless currently offers eights live TV channels as part of its own deal with MediaFLO in the form of V Cast TV, but does not currently have any "exclusive" channels, though some will be added in the future.

Rumors indicate that the initial handset offering with AT&T's mobile TV service will be the LG Vu, or CU920. If you'll recall, the Vu is a touch-screen phone similar to the LG Prada, and is expected to have 3G capabilities and be in the $200 price range.
