After the questionably-appointed Armani Night Effect, we were secretly hoping Samsung might consider putting its relationship with the Italian fashion house to bed, but it's not to be -- not this year, anyway. It won't just be any Armani phone, either: Ryu Jae-hyun, a director in Samsung's Taiwanese outpost, has revealed in an interview with the Taipei Times that we'll all be treated to a branded phone running Windows Mobile this year. So far, we haven't heard of or seen anything along these lines, but if we had to guess, this'll be running WinMo 6.5 by the time it his the streets -- skinned, of course, with an appropriately fashion-forward, opulent set of ~~screens~~ honeycombs.
