The Pantech Group from South Korea has just unveiled its plan to display the exclusive and ground breaking FLO technology by incorporating it in its latest handset. According to Pantech this is the perfect way of showcasing FLO technology to the general public as it just doesn’t remain a concept and becomes more tangent. FLO technology is a part of the QUALCOMM’s MediaFLO™ system which delivers unparalleled volumes of first class, streaming or clipped, audio and video multimedia content to mobile users.

The new handset would sport a stream-lined design and would be just 19.5-mm thick. It would also feature a 2.2 inch QVGA LCD which would be ideal for viewing content using FLO technology. The hand set would also include a 15pi Speaker and a Stereo headset. Some other configurations include a 2GB memory, 512Mb SDRAM Trans Flash external memory and would run on the AMSS4.3 based BREW® 3.1 Platform.

There has been no further information on this handset and according to Pantect it still requires some work before its ready for a mass release. However it will be on display at the CITA Wireless in Las Vegas and Pantech promises to release more advanced phones with FLO technology exclusively for the American market. http://www.qualcomm.com/ & http://www.pantech.com.
