Followup on a story I linked to earlier: Samsung will be among the first to develop handsets which will receive multimedia programming broadcasts via satellite. The planned handset will be based around a new chip developed by Samsung which was announced this week. The chip includes an Arm Ltd. processor core and can decode the satellite broadcasts as well as functions such as billing for pay-per-view services, the company said.
