Businessweek's Sony story is really bad
inqk.net> It contrasts this with the ease with which Samsung could put its phones in blockbusters like The Matrix.
> By Samsung I guess they meant Nokia.
No, they probably meant Samsung. Specifically they meant this phone, made for use in the later Matrix movies: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samsung_SPH-N270
Quote: "The design crew of the Matrix worked closely with Samsung to develop a phone whose features and release date would coincide with the movie."
Now, granted, it was kind of a crappy phone, but at least it existed; the key feature of the Nokia used in the first movie was a spring-loaded mechanism which didn't actually exist at the time.
