NTT DoCoMo will offer a new mobile handset made by Panasonic, with 1seg, Japan’s mobile terrestrial digital audio/video and data broadcasting service.

I have never explained you what 1seg means so I’ll tell you now.
In Japan, the terrestrial digital broadcast has each channel divided in 13 segements from which 12 are with HDTV broadcast and the last one, called 1seg, is for mobile receivers using H.264/MPEG-4 AVC video and HE-AAC audio included in the MPEG-2 Transport Stream.



It has 416 kbit/s rate, 320 x 240 pixels video resolution, 220-320 kbit/s video bit rate, and 48-64kbit/s audio bit rate, while the remaining 10-100kbit/s is the additional data broadcasting.
As the receiver device manufacturers have their own recording limits, some receivers permit the recording of 1seg broadcasts to the internal memory forbidding the moving or copying to a miniSD external memory card.



Panasonic P905iTV is the first 1seg mobile TV phone capable of 30 frames per second high quality imaging.
It has a 3.5-inch full wide LTPS TFT VGA display with 262,144 colors, mixing the VIERA large and flat screen concept with the high quality picture technologies, Mobile PEAKS PROCESSORTM and Mobile Double Contrast AI, which enable a 4000:1 contrast ratio.
The LCD Artificial Intelligence technology is in charge with automatic brightness adjustment.



P905iTV is a slider handset available in Black and White housing colors, measuring 113 X 53 X 17.9 mm when folded, at 129 grams, with a battery life of up to 230 minutes in 3G mode, 160 minutes in TV mode and up to 660 hours in 3G standby.

Its built-in camera is a CMOS with auto focus, 2MP effective resolution, 6-axis image stabilizer and link functions, and it is equipped also with an optional microSD/micro SDHC memory card slot, and high quality sound speakers.
