The announcement was made by Vivi Zigler, Executive Vice President, NBC Digital Entertainment.

"Mobile is the new frontier of the new frontier of digital entertainment," said Zigler. "We are experimenting and learning as much as we can in this space given the proliferation of cell phones in the market and it is our desire to provide the same high quality entertainment experience our users have come to expect of us."

By creating a WAP site for most NBC Entertainment show on air, NBC.com is extending its online web experience to the wireless market. NBC.com also boasts mobile video channels, which include full episodes as well as short form video clips, delivered on wireless devices.
