Hybrid Cellular-Satellite Phone
by Bram P
This week a cell phone service provider AT&T and TerreStar a secure satellite terrestrial mobile broadband network provider announced information about their hybrid cellular/satellite phone handset to be launch early next year. They plan to launch a Windows Mobile 3G phone called the TerreStar Genus (pronounced ‘Jen-us’) that will be aimed at business users segment. The handset will use AT&T’s network service for traditional cell phone service and in other way it will use TerreStar’s satellite phone service when out of range of a cellular signal.
