Product Description

Sporting a clamshell design, the Samsung A717 offers a rich multimedia experience in an ultra-slim form factor. Its 3G high speed data capability makes it easy to stream, download and enjoy endless hours of music, videos, TV, radio and more. You'll be able to access such AT&T services, such as Mobile Music, Cellular Video, access to MobiTV and MobiRadio. It will also support AT&T's forthcoming Video Share service, which offers a one-way video stream during a mobile-to-mobile phone call. Currently the one of the slimmest 3G phones available from AT&T, the A717 measures just 0.5 inches thin (12.9mm) and weighs 3.3 ounces. It communicates over GSM/GPRS networks and offers global voice and data roaming in over 125 countries.

Amazingly slim and lightweight, the A717 weighs just 3.3 ounces and measures 0.5 inches thin.
The A717's dual-band 3G connectivity (850 MHz, 1900 MHz) provides average download data speeds between 400 and 700 kilobits per second with bursts of more than 1 megabit through AT&T's HSDPA (High Speed Download Packet Access) network. With AT&T's MobiTV service, you can watch live television right on your cell phone, with content from such channels as MSNBC, CNBC, ABC News, FOX Sports, The Discovery Channel, and The Learning Channel.

And with the forthcoming Video Share service (to be fully available in the summer of 2007), you can send a live, one-way video stream to another compatible phone during a standard voice call. The service also allows you to switch the direction of the video stream during the same phone call. (Customers must be in an area served by the companyƕs 3G network and have a Video Share-enabled phone.)

AT&T's Mobile Music service features connectivity that allows you to use Napster or Yahoo! Music to purchase and load music onto your phone. You can also sign up to subscribe to XM Radio or MobiRadio digital radio for streaming music and news radio wherever you roam. And with an AT&T 3G phone, you can watch your favorite music videos anytime, anywhere.
