Samsung 3GB Mobile Phone

Sunday, October 16th, 2005

I reported a day or so ago that Samsung had been a very naughty company and had been caught doing the wrong thing. I have to admit that I wasn’t too bothered by what they did but now they are really starting to get up my nose.

And it’s not the price fixing that is providing the irritation. It’s the attitude they display in released a new mobile phone.

The Korea Times is preporting that Samsung is about to release a new mobile phone that includes a 3 gigabyte hard drive. With that much storage users can carry up to 700 music files.

The new phone also comes with a 2 megapixel camera built in. The camera has a 2x optical zoom.

Unfortunately we Luddites in the rest of the world won’t be seeing this camera and here is a direct quote from the Korea Times to explain why.

The outfit has no plan to ship the models to other countries since there will be no demand for the top-of-the-line phones other than in Korea which boasts ubiquitous tech-savvy people.

Is that a sad reflection on us or on them?
