Samsung has showed off another unique handset for the Korean market at CeBit. The SPH-B5200 is a slider model that slides both horizontally and vertically. When the keypad is slid out holding the phone horizontally, two D-Pads and other gaming buttons are revealed. When slid out vertically, a numeric keypad is revealed next to one of the D-Pads. The B5200 features a 3" wide-screed display, 2 Megapixel camera, Bluetooth, T-DMB mobile TV and accelerometers for gaming and navigation just by moving the phone around.
T-Mobile Germany is starting a pilot launch of T-One, a service similar to one due to arrive in the US this summer. Using phones such as the Nokia e60 and n80, subscribers will be able to use T-Mobile's GSM and UMTS networks as well as seamlessly switch to T-Com's Wi-Fi hotspots for both calls and data access. When the service launches T-Mobile will also offer compatible PC cards and laptops for data-only users, and are expected to launch additional handsets. T-One is not based on UMA as suspected, but rather on SIP (Session Initiation Protocol). T-Mobile US is expected to offer subscribers a compatible Wi-Fi access point so they can use compatible phones over Wi-Fi in their homes in addition to Starbucks and other T-Mobile hotspot locations.
