«Music-playing cellphones are a dime a dozen, right? Not the new Musiq by LG. This slim clamshell phone, available from Sprint for $99 with a two-year contract and rebate, can download music wirelessly and transmit audio to any nearby FM radio, taking the party out of your earbuds and into your car or kitchen. The 3-ounce phone, available next month, comes with a 64-megabyte MicroSD memory card, enough to hold about 20 songs, and it can handle cards up to 2 gigabytes. It includes a 1.3-megapixel camera and can work as a music player for up to 10 hours, while talk time is about 4 hours. The phone has track controls on its front, and the external buttons vibrate when you touch them, so you don’t mistake fast-forward for pause. You can add music to the Musiq from your computer desktop or from Sprint’s Music Store, which lets you download music wirelessly. A bonus: with the FM radio transmitter, you can have fun sharing your favorite hits with the entire car just by hijacking the frequency of the current radio station»
