It would help a lot if SK Telecom would just put more effort into doing something at Helio. A phone selection of just 3 phones won't do it. I want Helio to get to the point where every post about a cool Korean phone here is P.S.-ed with "Expect to see this on Helio shortly as the..."
Problem? Those Samsung phones aren't exclusive to Helio. The Drift and Heat been out in China (in GSM and CDMA form) for at least a couple of months now. The Ocean is their only exclusive. And I don't get it- isn't the point of Helio to sell those cool Korean phones here? LG and Moto are already making great phones in Korea(for Moto a good Helio exclusive might be the RAZR2, which SK Telecom is already getting), might as well just insert the Helio UI and sell them here.

More phones would be great. Helio is just stuck on having exclusive devices so they can load them up with their exclusive content.
They are so small that the big guns like LG and Motorola have refused to build them exclusive handsets.
Luckily, Samsung and Pantech seem to be a bit more Helio friendly taking a risk and providing them with their own phones.
