Following its appearance at a Samsung dealer event in the Netherlands, the ultra-slim G800 slider is getting a bit of attention — mainly because of its 5 megapixel camera with 3 x zoom and Xenon flash. And then there's the small matter of the HSDPA and the micro SDHC card slot, making me think that the G800 will be Samsung's mobile TV phone.

Fan of having your music on your phone, but hated Motorola’s original ROKR phone? The company seems to get the picture and is planning on launching the ROKR W5, a music phone that closely resembles the KRZR. This beautiful clamshell has an orange and black paint job, quad-band GSM, EDGE, Bluetooth, and miniUSB for transferring files to the microSD card slot.
Unfortunately, the camera included is a 1.3-megapixel, which is unacceptable for 2007. No word yet on carrier, price, etc., but anything is possible.

Palm Centro: A step to get Palm back in the race?
The new Palm Centro looks like a hipper version of the Treo. With Palm losing market share in their business phones - and with consumer confidence dying with the announcement of the foleo Palm has decided to tap a new market - the youth.
The Centro is going to be offered at an insanely cheap subsidized tag price of $99.00. It features a full QWERTY keypad, touch screen. and the ol’ faithful Palm OS. So what’s Palm trying to do? With a total tag price of $600.00, they’re trying to bring back the duo device configuration which was very popular back in the early 2000’s. With $600.00 you get two devices instead of one — the new Centro and the Foleo.
