Want to be really annoyed by a mobile phone? Samsung has a solution...

Electronics giant Samsung has developed a mobile phone with built in TV, the company announced Wednesday.

The SCH-M220, expected to hit the US sometime next year, uses a monochrome TFT LCD screen and a built in tuner to receive TV signals. If an incoming call is detected, the phone simply switches modes. TV can be watched for up to 200 minutes, according to Samsung.
