Las Vegas– Jan. 6, 2010 - Samsung Telecommunications America (Samsung Mobile) , the No. 1 mobile phone provider in theU.S., is displaying its commitment to 4G wireless technology, including LTE and Mobile WiMAX, during various device and networking demonstrations at ICES 2010.
Samsung Mobile is collaborating with Verizon Wireless to help accelerate and revolutionize consumer electronics to deliver richer, more powerful user experiences through LTE technology. As part of Verizon Wireless’LTEInnovationCenterdemonstrations, Samsung Mobile is showcasing new and emerging products, including digital picture frames, Mobile Internet Devices (MID) and digital cameras, which utilize practical applications through a connected multimedia ecosystem.
Samsung’s LTE Media Frame is an example of expanding the LTE ecosystem into other consumer electronic devices such as MIDs, digital cameras, online galleries, social networking sites and more. Samsung’s LTE Media frame has a high-resolution, 10” display with touch screen, multimedia (music, photo, video) capabilities and an ultra-slim design. Samsung’s digital camera is capable of HD 720p quality video at 30 frames per second and includes a large touch screen LCD display. Through an LTE-connected multimedia ecosystem, users would simply upload the pictures and videos over the LTE network to the picture frame or online social networking sites. Real-time live wireless video streaming from a mobile device to the LTE media frame would also be possible.
In addition, Samsung Mobile is reinforcing its commitment to 4G technology through its agreement with MetroPCS to work together to deliver advanced LTE solutions in devices and services as well as new and innovative network solutions.

The Samsung Mondi, which slides open horizontally to reveal a full QWERTY keyboard, can harness upload and download speeds that nearly double comparable devices running on 3G networks while taking advantage of the widespread connectivity of Mobile WiMAX. The Mondi is also equipped with WiFi, allowing users to keep strong wireless connections while working outside designated Mobile WiMAX markets.
