WAP Internet
With the built in EV-DO technology, you can bet the Samsung a940 will let you surf the net at high data transfer rates (about 10 times faster than current PCS technology). You can access your company networks, send/receive emails, view streaming videos downloaded from the internet at ultra high speeds. Furthermore, you can subscribe to live on demand music and entertainment channels such as Sprint TV, Sirius Music, MSN Mobile Television and more.
Some others include:
- ESPN
- Fox News
- Toon World
- Looney Tunes (what's up doc!)
- The Weather Channel
- Animal Planet
- Comedy Time
- NFL Network
- Fashion TV and much more.
The average rate at which you can surf the net is 400-700kbps (kilo bits per second) with the highest possible upto 2.0mbps (mega bits per second).
Memory Capacity
This phone comes with a huge 60mb available memory. Some of the comparable phones example the motorola v325 has only 32mb memory. This tells you the samsung a940 is a much more sophisticated phone! You can download and store tons of 3gp videos, ringtones, wallpapers, screensavers, applications and games. If you think the 60mb is not enough to hold all your mp3 songs, you can upgrade the memory to TransFlash or microSD which can run upto 512mb. Connections
If you check the specs, you'll notice this phone comes with a built in Bluetooth technology. With this feature, the samsung a940 can communicate with other bluetooth devices within a 10 metre radius. What this also means is that you can download lots of content (ringtones, videos, screensavers, wallpapers, etc) directly from your PC into the phone. Thus, you don't have to pay for Verizon's extra entertainment services that can get costly. |
