Samsung to release a Blogging cellphone

Tuesday, Jul. 10 2007 | Author: Griffith

It appears that Samsung is now trying to gain new market share by filling separate niches of the market. In this case, this latest device, called the SGH-L760 (yeah, they have a way with their product names), allows you to upload videos recorded with your cellphone directly to YouTube.

You can also upload the same videos, or photos that you take to your own blog, as long as you have one setup at Ublog.com or Buzznet.com. I’d rather see Wordpress or Blogger compatibility, and for me that’s really a big deal breaker.

Instead of launching this cellphone in Korea, or Japan, it will be released in Spain (Europe) during this month.

Given the lack of limitations (besides Flash animation) that the iPhone’s browser has, cellphone companies need to improve faster if they wish to remain competitive in that market.
