iPads and other tablets may be hindering the growth of the netbook market, but the HTPC market may be hurting even more.

Mobile TV in America is still one of those technologies that is either too ahead of its time, or simply unwanted in its current state. Tons of advertising has been done to showcase the tech, but for one reason or another, it's not nearly as popular as one might think. Then again, neither is...
