Samsung Electronics in Korea has introduced the new Samsung SPH-B2500 DMB phone which looks similar to the recently announced SCH-V700 PMP phone. The B2500 supports the Digital Multimedia Broadcasting service in Korea and can display multimedia content on it's rotating screen.

The B2500 also supports the new Via Audio Codec which can supposedly reduce the amount of space needed for audio files without losing audio fidelity. You can store four songs at the same quality with the same file size of a single MP3 file using a higher bit rate. With a higher compression rate, you can store more music on the phone as well as download music faster.

The audio conversion software can be obtained at the Anycall website at http://www.anycall.com. Via MobileMag.com
