The Future is here where your mobile phone will have a memory capacity greater than the first PC´s. Samsung has just introduced a 3GB HDD embedded phone (model SPH-V7900) onto the Korean market. This is Samsung's latest model equipped with a hard disc drive and gazzumps its own record of having the world's first mobile phone equipped with 1.5GB hard disc drive (model SPH-V5400), which it introduced into its home market of Korea in September of last year. Makes you feel like moving to Korea with all that mobile activity going on – but still, we have to wait a little to have this cute gizmos working over here.
The V7900 allows users to store two or three full-length movies (at 1.1-5GB each) or more than 700 music files (at 4MB each).
The V7900 also supports the latest multimedia compression technologies -MPEG-4/H.264 (for video) and MPEG-4 AAC/AAC+ (for audio). High-performance dual speakers are mounted on the exterior folder to provide 64-polyphonic stereo sound.
This model comes with harmonic color, a new feature that converts all musical elements such as scale, octave, tone and volume into visual images in a variety of colors and patterns.
It also comes with a 2 megapixel camera that includes 2x optical zoom, MP3 player, and document viewer functions.
"The major increase in memory will position the mobile phone as a key multimedia product that enables users to watch movies and listen to music. We will continue to apply the latest technologies and innovative designs to remain at the forefront of the global market for premium mobile phones," said Kitae Lee, President of the Samsung Electronics Telecommunication Network Business.
The phone is available in Korea at around US$700. Nothing comes cheap.
