When Apple didn't have 3rd party app add-on without jailbreaking, you did not find it necessary to write an article and throw in a snide remark about it being only a feature phone at the end.

Please do not deny that you have a bias towards Apple cuz readers are not idiots. The only idiotic part about us is that we sometimes forget to check who wrote an article and only afterwards we find you wrote it. So next time, I'll try harder to check who wrote the article before I actually read. ]]>Jun 15th 2009 4:47PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/15/samsung-jet-packs-an-800mhz-processor-amoled-display-featureph/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/15/samsung-jet-packs-an-800mhz-processor-amoled-display-featureph/Jun 15th 2009 6:10PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/15/samsung-jet-packs-an-800mhz-processor-amoled-display-featureph/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/15/samsung-jet-packs-an-800mhz-processor-amoled-display-featureph/Don't even try to play the context card on us.

Samsung has to get it's mind correct, but hey, it's not a smartphone. Somehow I think they're aiming at those teenagers with their cool looking phones, but not so great features what-so-ever. This is more like what LG is doing right now.

Anyways, there is still a quite big market for this phone, so I guess it will be quite successful.]]>Jun 15th 2009 12:05PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/15/samsung-jet-packs-an-800mhz-processor-amoled-display-featureph/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/15/samsung-jet-packs-an-800mhz-processor-amoled-display-featureph/Jun 15th 2009 12:17PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/15/samsung-jet-packs-an-800mhz-processor-amoled-display-featureph/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/15/samsung-jet-packs-an-800mhz-processor-amoled-display-featureph/Jun 16th 2009 9:03AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/15/samsung-jet-packs-an-800mhz-processor-amoled-display-featureph/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/15/samsung-jet-packs-an-800mhz-processor-amoled-display-featureph/Jun 15th 2009 12:07PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/15/samsung-jet-packs-an-800mhz-processor-amoled-display-featureph/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/15/samsung-jet-packs-an-800mhz-processor-amoled-display-featureph/Jun 15th 2009 12:12PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/15/samsung-jet-packs-an-800mhz-processor-amoled-display-featureph/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/15/samsung-jet-packs-an-800mhz-processor-amoled-display-featureph/Still not enough to kill iPhone

So far, the only OS that can truly challenge iPhone is Palm Pre. Too bad Omnia II is running a non standard OS which means there won't be a wide range of applications available compare to Symbian, Android, Palm, and OS X.

After playing with Palm Pre, I think I've fall in love with it except that the overall built looks cheap and a very edgy keypad which makes me very uncomfortable. The Built in 8GB without memory expansion of Palm Pre is also a big minus. Anyway, the OS is superb at multi tasking! Hope iPhone will have that capability.]]>Jun 15th 2009 1:51PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/15/samsung-jet-packs-an-800mhz-processor-amoled-display-featureph/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/15/samsung-jet-packs-an-800mhz-processor-amoled-display-featureph/
Oh and about 'true smartphone' thing it's the difference between North America and Eastern Europe/Middle East markets.

For me, iPhone is uber expensive Android and webOS are inexistent.

Fact is, Samsung have no interest in licensing proper operating systems or in updating any unit once it has left Korea. Their handsets are nothing but showcases for vendor hardware: Looking for an AMOLED display for the next iPhone? Here, play with this. Looking for an 800 MHz processor so BlackBerry users will stop complaining about being unable to watch Hulu? We've got your answer humming in this thing. And because AT-MoSprizon picked up a couple million of these featurephones at cost (cost to the chaebol, that is), all of these advanced components are now available to OEMs at commodity prices.

This handset (nevermind its predecessors) was never meant to be an iPhone-killer; it's simply a by-product of Samsung's business model. Sure, the specs look great, but it's not meant for the power user--it's meant for millions of clueless moms to pick up for their eighth-graders, repurposing market share to amortize component development costs. That's right, it's those idiots with their dead-end featurephones that subsidize all of our precious iPhones, G1s,and Pre's (and everything else that couldn't have happened without KHTML). So get your niece one for her birthday and quit yer bitchin'.]]>Aug 6th 2009 4:47PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/15/samsung-jet-packs-an-800mhz-processor-amoled-display-featureph/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/15/samsung-jet-packs-an-800mhz-processor-amoled-display-featureph/
