Nokia has made available pictures of MediaScreen, an
entirely new concept prototype, combining television, Internet and
mobile phone technology. It runs the Linux operating system and the
Mozilla browser.

“MediaScreen creates opportunities for mobile use of terrestrial
(DVB-T) digital television. This device enables interactive access
to the Internet and the selection of web pages offered by the
broadcasting company within its digital signal stream, even for
people on the move. Moreover, MediaScreen makes it possible to send
and receive e-mails, watch television and listen to the radio with
digital quality.”
