There is a suite of native social network applications including Facebook and MySpace as well as Twitter, Bebo widgets and multi-IM capability.

“This collaboration with Samsung offers consumers an exciting movie viewing experience on the small screen and taps into the fan excitement for the upcoming release of Iron Man 2.”
