the N1 is 560euros(in France) and there isn't any "legit" way to get it, so this is really cheaper.

The only downside for i8520 is that it is not as thin as Wave... This thing here is really thin and sexy.

But I think I'm going to wait for the Beam.]]>Mar 25th 2010 9:49AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/22/samsungs-super-amoled-packin-wave-s8500-priced-in-germany-42/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/22/samsungs-super-amoled-packin-wave-s8500-priced-in-germany-42/Mar 22nd 2010 2:38PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/22/samsungs-super-amoled-packin-wave-s8500-priced-in-germany-42/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/22/samsungs-super-amoled-packin-wave-s8500-priced-in-germany-42/Mar 22nd 2010 2:38PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/22/samsungs-super-amoled-packin-wave-s8500-priced-in-germany-42/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/22/samsungs-super-amoled-packin-wave-s8500-priced-in-germany-42/

If Palm can't do it, why the heck does Samsung think they can push their crappy featurephone / barely-smart smartphone OS?

Just stick to selling the screens, not putting them in your own hardware please.]]>Mar 22nd 2010 3:05PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/22/samsungs-super-amoled-packin-wave-s8500-priced-in-germany-42/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/22/samsungs-super-amoled-packin-wave-s8500-priced-in-germany-42/Mar 22nd 2010 8:36PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/22/samsungs-super-amoled-packin-wave-s8500-priced-in-germany-42/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/22/samsungs-super-amoled-packin-wave-s8500-priced-in-germany-42/
Just to clear the air surrounding Bada -- from what I've gathered, it's not actually an OS in and of itself. It's basically an upgraded version of TouchWiz. It DOES have a selection of "core features" but in the future, it will sit on top of Android/Symbian/WhateverElse.

That said, I don't believe this phone is equipped with any underlying SmartphoneOS. So, this phone probably isn't for you, but others may be in the future.

(My info comes from a few informed posts by Eldar over at mobile-review, in case you were wondering)]]>Mar 23rd 2010 1:19AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/22/samsungs-super-amoled-packin-wave-s8500-priced-in-germany-42/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/22/samsungs-super-amoled-packin-wave-s8500-priced-in-germany-42/Mar 22nd 2010 4:09PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/22/samsungs-super-amoled-packin-wave-s8500-priced-in-germany-42/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/22/samsungs-super-amoled-packin-wave-s8500-priced-in-germany-42/Oh, wait...
