Samsung, AT&T announce A747 "SLM" flip

So the Samsung A747 for AT&T is finally here, 'cept it's not the A747. Instead, the slim clamshell has been appropriately christened the "SLM." Think of the SLM as a juiced version of the also very thin A717, carrying over the 2 megapixel cam and attractive brushed metal exterior while adding a much larger 96 x 96 external display and support for Napster Mobile -- a first for AT&T. Get the SLM beginning November 23 for $150 after a $50 rebate on a two-year contract.

wow. AT&T is offering napster while it is teamed up with apple which is a direct competitor to napster. lol. that is quite ironic.

NOOOOO! The acronym naming convention is spreading!

"SLM" - so unimaginative.

Hey I'm gonna go to the gym to get "SLM" and listen to my "ROKR". There was a guy who was all like "KRZR". He had not a "SLVR" of sanity. A guy at the gym was talking on his "RAZR" when a girl told him that she had a "RAZR 2"! Then I went home to my "RIZR"?...

C'mon now.

I love this...

I other words - it DOESN'T accept Word or PDF files. Talk about a spin!

Hey, thanks for the kind words f***face.

Since you're the smartest guy in the room maybe you can tell me why my post was redirected to a thread I never read or replied too.

Yeah...didn't think so.
