Samsung Mass Produces 2.5-Gbit MCP for 3G Phones
It is still not quite clear how far 3G will go, and when it will take off, even so various countries try to accelerate the adoption speed.
Samsung is heavily preparing for this service. The company has begun mass production of the world’s largest-capacity multi-chip package (MCP) for 3G phones. The 2.5Gb MCP will allow for intense video playback on mobile phones with digital multimedia broadcasting support (DMB).
It is okay to prepare - so far, the majority of mobile phone users use the phone to talk or send SMS. Mobile phones thus still are more about communicating than consuming. And the lack of suitable technology to support 3G phones handicaps the uptake of the innovation.
However, research companies keep predicting the success of the technology - and somehow along the line, beating the bush often and loud enough might attract customers. In the article here, "iSuppli predicts that the market for 3G mobile phones will grow an average of 78% a year through 2008, when 240 million units will be sold worldwide."
