Samsung has announced MPower 699, worlds first CDMA phone to use Open Market Handset technology (OMH). The phone will be released in India. OMH Technology allows a phone to be used on any CDMA network. Reliance and Tata Indicom are the key CDMA providers in India.

Earlier, users had to buy a phone from a particular CDMA operator to use their service but with OMH enabled handset, a user now only needs an OMH SIM card from any operator and can use on this phone.

Samsung MPower 699 is a slider phone and comes pre-loaded with features like FM Radio, Music Player, MicroSD card support, 1.3 MP Camera with video recording and a Mobile Tracker. The phone will be available for INR 7100 ( close to $145).
