Japanese phones to receive realtime
cartoon simulations of baseball games 04/11/2005 08:29 AM
Cory Doctorow: DoCoMo mobile subscribers in Japan will get video of US and Japanese baseball games sent to their phones this year, but not as live-action -- instead, the action will be re-created (presumably in near-real-time) using an animation engine, and the animations will be sent to the phone, along with sound effects and so forth. I imagine that this represents a substantial bandwidth savings (you could load the phones with the engines to render out all conceivable plays and then simply pass on the actual play-by-play in machine-readable form), and simplifying live video with pixel-art toons will make the action a lot less ambiguous on the tiny screen. This hearkens back to the golden age of American radio, when sportscasters would get a play-by-play from a ticker-tape and recreate the game with in-studio effects (thwacking a pencil on the table to simulate the sound of a home-run, for example), narrating it as though they were present at the match. Still, in this day, it seems a little odd to watch what amounts to a video game simulation of a probably-not-so-fantastic game when the actual video is probably within arm's reach.

...[A]vatars take the place of players and action is transformed, play by play into a cartoon like environment. This includes the roar of the crowd, scoreboard, the pitch, the strike and trajectory of the ball.

This isn't a game, by the way, but a cartoon version of a live game, produced by Craftmax's Digital Stadium and broadcast to DoCoMo 3G mobiles.

Two New CDMA Phones from Nokia

Two New CDMA Phones from Nokia 05/03/2004 09:23 AM
Two new Nokia phones today, neither one much to speak of (or look at), but they'll do just fine in the Asia Pacific CDMA markets for which they are designed. The 2112 has a nice white-on-white thing going for it, but besides an integrated flashlight, polyphonic ringtones, and picture messaging...

Nokia Plans Three New Phones for the
U.S. Market 03/14/2005 06:26 PM
Nokia on Monday announced the plans of making three new phones for the U.S. Market in hope of increasing its share of the US market. They also said that they hope to sell the phones in Mexico, Argentina, and Brazil.

The phones will be based on a wireless technology used by Verizon Wireless and Sprint Mobile, CDMA. Nokia says that they plan to sell one of the phones through Virgin Mobile, but have not given details about their plans with Verizon and Sprint. Cingular Wireless and T-Mobile don't look like they will be in on the plans because of their GSM Technology. Nokia has had less success in the US due to the standard US wireless technology, GSM.

Nokia plans to sell its new 6155i CDMA phone in the fourth quarter. The 6155i offers a fold-over cover, built-in zoom lens camera (which supports streaming video), and GPS applications. The 3155 CDMA phone also plans to go on sale with the 6155i in the fourth quarter. The 3155 CDMA also offers a fold-over case with extra memory for storign pictures, along with integrated FM Radio. Both phones are expected to cost $100 to $250, a middle-tier price range described by Nokia.
