The most prominent feature of Prizm 3.0 is its various built-in visually-striking GUI effects that were difficult to find on traditional smartphones, such as dragging, sliding, fading and accelerated smart scrolling.
SK Telecom-Motorola Unveils Linux Mobile Phone Next Year
SK Telecom plans to introduce the industry's first mobile phone adopting Linux operating system (OS) in next year. The wireless operator is developing a new handset linking its mobile platform 'T-PAK' with Motorola Linux OS. Windows CE has been limited installed into smart phones, but this is the first time that Linux is adopted for a mobile phone.
A new Linux-based phone is shipping to subscribers of China Mobile's "Go-Tone" GSM/GPRS service. The Samsung SGH-i858 features a large, 2.4-inch QVGA (240 x 320) color touchscreen, along with a slide-out hardware keypad. It runs version 2.5 of Mizi's "Prizm" Linux phone stack. The SGH-i858 is the second recent Linux phone release from Samsung. The Korean consumer electronics giant (Samsung is Asia's 9th-largest company) in April began distributing its unique SCH-i819 -- which features both GSM/GPRS and CDMA radios -- to China Unicom.
