Samsung has unveiled a new line of flash memory for upcoming 3G mobile phones. The device measures only a quarter of the size of a standard multimedia memory card.

With 12 millimeters by 14mm by 1.1mm, the MMCmicro cards will only be available in 32MB, 64MB and 128MB sizes. Samsung says data can be read off the cards at 10MB per second and written to them at 7MB per second. The interface between card and handset can theoretically support a maximum transfer speed of 26MB per second.

"Despite its exceptionally small size, the Samsung MMCmicro has proven to be highly reliable in delivering excellent performance through extensive testing," the company said in a statement.

Samsung says that MMCmicro will go into mass production in early 2005.
