San Jose (CA) - Immersion said that Samsung's SCH-W559 cellphone is the first device to make use of its "VibeTonz" technology. The device integrates a "unique" touchscreen that comes with "tactile feedback" features to add a new twist to the general use of a cellphone.

Currently only available in China, the SCH-W559's VibeTonz (pronounced "Vibe Tones") feature tries to provide physical feedback to the user in order to make the use of the phone easier and create a more realistic "feel" of applications.
