Samsung has unveiled the worlds first 8GB hard disk embedded cell phone, in the SGH-i310. The hard disk storage space for the phone is the largest anywhere.

That much storage space can allow you to do much more with the phone.

The SGH-i310 is a combination of a cell phone, a digital camera, and a music player. The cell phone can store up to 2000 songs (assuming that each song is roughly 4MB in size).

The Windows Mobile 5.0 software is installed on the phone which allows you to synchronize songs, playlists, and videos from your PC so that a similar experience to that of viewing and playing these files on their computer.

The SGH-i310 comes with a USB 2.0 connection which means you can use the phone as a USB drive. This phone then can be used to transfer large files from computer to computer.

While the SGH-i310 has large storage capacity I found that there was nothing too special about its 2 megapixel digital camera -an average camera in a pretty neat cell phone.

The cell phone also features a 2 inch display and a double speaker stereo output.
