We’ve missed this one. But here it is a few days later nevertheless.
Verizon Wireless and Samsung recently announced the Samsung SCH-u620, the first mobile phone to support carrier’s new V CAST Mobile TV service.
Among other things, the SCH-u620 packs a 2″ QVGA screen, a 1.3 MP camera, and microSD memory card slot in a slider form factor. Furthermore, the device boasts a dedicated V CAST Mobile TV key, a retractable antenna, and can view DOC, XLS, PPT, PDF, TXT, HTM, and image files.
The Samsung SCH-u620 is available in select Verizon stores for $149.99 after $50 mail-in rebate and a new two-year customer agreement. Not much for one of the first mobile TV devices in the country. (via: SlashPhone)

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
