Samsung's SGH-A617 with American 3G
There are very few branches of the government capable of brightening our day, but as usual, leave it to the FCC to take a rather bland Thursday and turned it right into an entry-level 3G lovefest. Though the documentation makes zero mention of a destination carrier -- and the handset itself is carrier logo-free -- it's safe to say that the SGH-A617 is destined for AT&T on account of its WCDMA support on the 850 and 1900MHz bands. Strangely, the user's manual makes no mention of Video Share, though that might be attributed to the fact that this partiular prototype is unbranded. Other features include Bluetooth, a camera of unknown resolution, an external display, and an unfortunate (and entirely unwanted) aerial antenna. We'll cut it some slack if the signal strength turns out to be killer.
