PDAs, Cellphones, Wireless You thought you'd seen it all, but no. Here's the MTV phone: the Motorola e398 ("as seen on MTV" says the sticker on the box). This is a GSM music and video playback phone that was originally targetted at the T-Mobile lineup in Europe but is now sold in the US through Geeks.com. We take a quick look of what to expect of this good-looking device.

Itunes Phone = No battery life

My ipod can run for 18 hours without charge.

Most phones are good if you get 300 minutes of talk time.

Play tunes = your phone is probably off or your tunes are interrupted by each call and sms message.


There is not convergence here just a conflict of inerests. Adding camera and videophone actually work but I believe a mp3 player conflicts with the overall use of the phone.

You are confusing the fact that "talk time" is NOT the same with either "standby time" or "usage time". As long as the phone radio is not used (meaning, not "talking"), the mp3 player can have at least 10-12 hours of battery life.
