Couch Potatoes Go Mobile
Samsung has just announced the SGH-P705 GSM 900/1900 phone with WAP 2.0, MIDP 2.0 Java, multimedia messaging service (MMS), infrared and 40-chord polyphonic ringtones. Big deal, you say?
Well, this is the first phone of its kind with a built-in TV tuner. Along with the (now de rigeur) ability to do MMS and Java-based games, this baby has a hi-res TFT display which sports 262,000 colors and screen-capture ability.
Ultraportable TVs aren't new; but I never saw myself putting one of those in my jeans pocket and taking it everywhere I went. Now, integrate a TV with a phone - that I might bring around with me.... With this at your fingertips, you may never have to miss an episode of Queer Eye again!
