These phones will take users' reach beyond the home and enable sharing content while travelling, from the office, or any other possible scenario outside of the home.

Panasonic Mobile Communications Co. Ltd. has developed two prototypes of mobile phones equipped with wireless LAN (IEEE802.11b/g) module. Using wireless LAN module, the handset could be utilised as high quality IP TV phone or as player, server and controller to enjoy rich digital contents wirelessly with DLNA compliant products at home.

The first prototype handset could be used as in-house IP phone utilising an internal wireless LAN network which enables the user to enjoy IP TV phone function with high quality voice and motion picture at up to 30fps (frames per second).

Using the prototype handset with DLNA function as a player, the user could enjoy streaming of high quality movie contents from DLNA compliant server. If the handset is used as a server, the user could see still pictures taken by the mobile phone at DLNA compliant products such as TV or PC. Moreover, the user could operate DLNA compliant products to watch digital contents using the handset as a controller.

These two prototypes will be exhibited at the ITU TELECOM WORLD 2006 to be held in Hong Kong, China between 4 and 8 December 2006.
