I'm totally in love with this cell phone, even though I don't really watch that much television. Unfortunately, it is not available in the USA yet. The [Samsung](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/samsung-movingstyle) P960 is the first [slider cell phone](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tecno-slim) with an integrated TV in Europe.

"It supports the Euro mobile TV standards DVB-CBMS and OMA-BCAST," Crunchgear says. "Obviously there's nothing on at the moment but [color bars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/samsung-micro-rgb), but they look pretty good. I don't think we'll be getting this thing any time soon, since mobile TV in the USA is way behind Europe and Korea."

I just love its crafty, efficient-looking design.
