Billboard, May, 2005
Samsung and Verizon have introduced a new wireless phone that literally gets the beat. It uses a touch-sensation vibration technology called VibeTonz from Immersion that allows the phone to pulse to the rhythm of selected ringtones. Ringtone developers can synchronize the phone's vibration functions to the melody, beat and dynamics of the music, even if users turn off the audio.
The phone ships with 15 preloaded ringers that feature the vibrating enhancement, and American Greetings Interactive's MIDIRingtones and AG Mobile divisions have integrated the technology into 50 of their best-selling ringtones.
