"WIRELESS: Robert Redford pitches mobile phone as '4th screen' at confab"

Film star Robert Redford, at the Mobile World Congress this week (Feb. 11-14, 2008), will claim that the mobile phone is the "4th screen"--after theater, television and the iPod--extending the reach of movies to new audiences in the global community. Several firsts at the Congress will include a WiMax mobile handset reference design from chip maker NextWave Wireless Inc. (San Diego), created in partnership with industrial design house Elektrobit Corp. (EB, Oulunsalo, Finland). Also, a partnership to create the first on-chip hardware accelerator for detecting viruses will be announced by communications processor maker Freescale Semiconductor Inc. (Austin, Texas), in partnership with Qosmos (Paris)--a spin-off of the Laboratoire d'Informatique de Paris (LIP6)--which specializes in detecting viruses and other malware.
