Samsung Mobile Display expects that a new plant, scheduled to open in July 2011, will help it meet the growing demand for its displays for smartphones and other products. The new plant will increase Samsung’s production capabilities tenfold, jumping from 3 million per month today to 30 million per month when the plant opens. Samsung is going to spend about $2.1 billion to set up the plant, which will be located near Seoul. It will primarily be used for 3-inch smartphone screens. Lee Woo-Jong, vice president of marketing for the display business, said to Down Jones Newswire in an email, “We’ve put in a great deal of effort to move up mass production.” Lee said Samsung has not given its own Galaxy S Android phones priority over orders from its smartphone competitors. He noted that the shortage has affected Samsung, too. Demand for Samsung’s AMOLED displays has left phone makers unable to manufacture enough of their own devices. Companies such as HTC have been impacted, which eventually had to use Super LCD displays from Sony in order to keep up with orders of its devices from carriers such as Verizon Wireless.

China Now Requiring Proof of ID to Buy SIM Cards

September 6th, 2010 by mobile-laden (co.uk)

The Chinese government recently implemented a new policy that requires those wishing to purchase a SIM card for cellular service to display proof of identification. The move is being made in part to help squash spam, fraud and other crimes. In the U.S., the major wireless network operators already require ID for users signing contracts for service. Pre-paid customers often don’t have to show identification, but lawmakers have floated a bill that would change that policy. Pre-paid cell phones are frequently favored by lawbreakers, as they can be used anonymously. Senator John Cornyn said in May, “While most Americans use pre-paid mobile devices lawfully, the anonymous nature of these devices gives too much cover to individuals looking to use them for deviant, dangerous means.” The U.S. bill needs to be ratified by congress before it could become law.

Swype and Nokia today announced a beta version of Swype text input for Symbian S60 5th Edition phones. The limited beta of Swype works as it does on other touch devices, and allows users to trace out words on their touch screen rather than peck at them. The predictive software analyzes the trace patterns and helps cut down on text entry time. Right now, the devices that can run Swype for Symbian include the Nokia N97, N97 mini, X6, 5800, and 5230. Nokia and Swype hope that beta testers will provide feedback about any bugs or problems they may encounter.
