imageQualcomm’s FLO TV, which broadcasts TV to mobile devices in the U.S. through its major partners AT&T (NYSE: T) and Verizon Wireless (NYSE: VZ), said it is on track to reach its goal of covering 100 major markets and more than 200 million potential customers nationwide by the end of the year.

The company was delayed when the government decided to put off the transition from analog to digital TV signals. FLO was waiting for spectrum that was going to be freed up from that process. The new deadline is June 12, and today, the company announced that immediately following the transition this Friday, it will go live in 15 new markets, including Boston, Houston, Miami and San Francisco, and will expand in existing markets, including Chicago, Los Angeles, New York and Washington, DC.
