> Nokia and HP introduce Visual Radio
Bookmark topic
And here we thought MP3 playback was the way to go for cellphones. Nokia and HP have a different idea, called Visual Radio, which involves sending song information out (via GPRS) to FM radio-equipped cellphones. It will be free to listen in, with the companies hoping to make their money on ringtone downloads, which users can immediately purchase when they hear a song that perfectly describes them. Radio stations can also offer polls, surveys and quizzes so users can use more airtime (and thus rack up more charges on their cellphone bill.
