This is a key statement to the industry by M that Mobile TV is HOT and 3G cannot serve the masses. The S DMB platform /service in Korea is it ..but we hear that International Mobile Broadcasting and Glocal Media together with a big consortium is leading a Pan Asia S DMB service. So teh Motoview may soon have a GSM S DMB version for the rest of the world.

Congratulations to the big M!!! Excellent move.

I think it looks pretty nice. If only it was thinner.
I hate how Motorola is releasing this in Korea only.

Is it confirmed this Motorola cellphone uses DMB (based on DAB Digital Audio Broadcasting, Eureka 147) for its mobile TV reception? This is rather surprising, since among cellphone manufacturers, only LG and SAMSUNG have made their involvement in DMB clear and public so far. Also, I've read on other pages that the technology used in this MOTOVIEW phone is DVB-H...? Thanks in advance for a helpful reply.

It seems we're going to see more of this subpanel buttons (buttons that are touch/heat/sensor activated when putting a finger to it). First SE's Black Diamond, then Nokia's N95 then now this. I still cannot stand Moto Razr style keypad.

One must wonder why there is a comment system for the news if most of the comments are so silly or spam. Not blown away by this phone but heck its ok and its not for us anyways.
