Ericsson MP3 Add-on

Ericsson MP3 Add-on for their Cell Phones Introduced at Telecom '99 - Just another concept?





Erricsson calls it the HPM-10 Attached to the bottom of Ericsson phones, it has 32 MByte of RAM for 32 minutes of listening in a Multimedia card. One can listen to MP3 audio and when a phone call comes in, the music fades away. Availability: Mid June Price: not released yetThe next logical question is, does it receive the MP3 files through the air? Do we really need a computer and an Internet connection?A note to this - the Japanese telecomms are preparing to ship phones with built-in MP3 players in the second half of 2000. Here is the Swedish version of this concept. So the real question is, when we will see the wireless services (ATT, GTE, Sprint...) here in the United States supporting these devices?
