Tech Werks is also testing its new 3G technology using Verizon’s USB modems. This new streaming technology will allow you to stream LIVE anywhere you have a 3G Verizon cell service. Using Tech Werks prototype, Trinity Baptist Church in Asheville, NC streamed LIVE for two weeks, several hours each night, from a tent in the middle of a field with no hard line Internet connection. Daryl Inman, Media Director, said “We had hundreds of viewers each night and the system worked great. I can see this technology being beneficial not only for people like us, but also for emergency response organizations, people that do conferences where it is difficult to get a hard line Internet connection.”
