The introduction of the Samsung Mythic mobile phone into the US market is most definitely geared towards those that can’t bear to leave their TV’s at home.

Samsung’s PR team obviously think it’s what everyone wants, saying: “Think a phone like this is too good to be true? Think again. The Samsung Mythic is everything you’ve been dreaming of in a phone and then some. You’ll watch live TV right from the extra-large 3.3” touchscreen. And if there’s nothing on TV, a slew of social networking apps and messaging features will keep you busy chatting with friends and updating them on what’s happening in your life.”

Fair enough, but it’s beginning to imply that a human being is less than complete without a steady stream of TV images in their face, or networking sites in which to update. You wake up, then begin a daily cycle of either watching TV, or telling everyone else what you’re watching on TV. The obvious question of course, is if you’re so busy watching TV, when do you have time to live a life, to actually do something that might be worth putting on your social network page?

That’s not going to stop millions of Americans tuning into mobile TV of course. With the Samsung Mythic, they’ll be able to sign up for the AT&T Mobile TV service, which gives them real-time access to stations such as CBS, Comedy Central, ESPN, FOX, MTV and NBC.

Now there’s a thought, you leave the office after a hard day, and whilst you’re wending your tired way back home, you can catch up with the myriad of Friends repeats, just in case you haven’t seen every episode at least ten times before! And when you get back home, you collapse in front of the goggle box and watch some more repeats of Friends. Just think, how interesting will your social network page be sharing that day’s activity?

But the days when a mobile phone was just a mobile phone are long gone.

And, it has to be said, the Samsung Mythic is a little beauty and to think you can watch a TV programme on its 3.3” touch screen, is pretty impressive.

Apart from it’s ability to show your favourite TV sitcoms, it has all the usual points of merit: GSM 850/900/1900; JAVA operating system; 3.2 megapixel camera; music player; email; Bluetooth; and, with the help of a memory card, some 32GB of memory.

So there you are then, if watching TV on the move is important, get this little wonder, and by the way, it will also allow you to make calls.
