Gigabyte Unveils GSmart i200 Cell Phone
During the 3GSM World Congress Asia 2006, Gigabyte Communications reveals its latest smartphone, the GSmart i200. As the first DVB-H Windows Mobile 5.0-based cell phone, it boasts its capabilities to display DVB-H and DVH-T-based TV programme, as well as radio and other media, along with (somehow limited) direct TV recording function onto its built-in 512MB of onboard memory. If the 2.69-inch VGA touch screen display is not big enough, users can always take advantage of the provided TV-out port and enjoy the satellite broadcasted media on a bigger screen.Christopher Chen, General Manager of Gigabyte Communications’ Global Sales and marketing Division mentions, “GIGABYTE Communications is proud to demonstrate the GSmart i200 phone, particularly live mobile broadcasting using Penthera viewer to provide a VGA viewing experience.“. He follows, “By providing a complete, open-standard, feature-rich solution set, the GSmart i200 addresses the needs of operators worldwide who are seeking devices that support revenue growth opportunities associated with mobile broadcast services.”Notice the app named Penthera Viewer? Together with Siano Mobile Silicon’s Mobile Digital TV receiver/demodulator, Penthera Viewer is a pre-installed software which allows mobile devices, such as mobile phones, PDAs and laptops to receive DVB-H- and DAB-IP-based TV, radio and media transmissions through a user-friendly, Virtual Set Top Box on the device.
Other features packed on GSmart i200 Cell Phone include a USB 2.0 port and support for Crossbow, the next generation of Windows Mobile OS.
