Samsung's DMB clamshell with stereo speakers

by Chris Ziegler, posted May 25th 2006 at 12:30PM

Fancy that, a cellphone with a built-in camera! We're just playin', Samsung. We know your SCH-B490 does much more than that. Besides the usual category-bending 3.2 megapixel shooter and DMB -- which is becoming downright ho-hum in Korea these days -- the EV-DO twist clamshell throws down internal stereo speakers and a QVGA screen that can be closed facing up or down. It only comes with 67MB flash onboard, but fret not shutterbugs, the MicroSD slot has you covered. We're assuming this bad boy is Korea-only, but if Sprint or Verizon have a secret DMB deal they're not telling us about, sign us up.

Why is it that our freaking carriers cannot bring nice phones like this? EVDO, 3.2, DMB!!! We need to get off this lame 1.3 megapixel crap!
