New Phones Silence Background Din

SK Telecom has launched the first cell phone in Korea, and the second in the world (Japan’s NTT DoCoMo was the first) with noise reduction technology that makes it possible for users to talk on the phone even in the noisiest place as it blocks out background noise and allows only the voice to travel through the ether. Digital Chosunilbo reports.

"SK Telecom named the LG Electronics’ SH-400 model, for reasons that will be obvious to some husbands, the “Alibi phone,” and announced it will produce handsets sporting this technology by three other makers, Pantech, Samsung Electronics and Motorola."
