While most countries are just starting to look at mobile broadcasting, Korea is releasing more DMB phones to the local market now. Samsung has announced its latest satellite DMB phone, SCH-B250 with a swivel LCD screen design. Samsung's new B250 boasts more compact design and improved features while maintaining the basic product concept of previous DMB phones, which supports horizontal viewing. The B250 is also the smallest Samsung DMB handset ever.

The B250 is a folder type with pivotal LCD screen which rotates 90 degrees into landscape mode. The B250 follows the same basic design as the hugely popular SCH-V500 camera phone that went on the market in August of last year.

Samsung introduced its innovative horizontal LCD design last year with the V500 and is expanding this design trend for mobile phones, especially DMB phones.
