Samsung Galaxy Spica grows up to Android 2.1
Also known as the Galaxy Portal in the UK, Samsung's i5700 is today officially entering the Eclair portion of its Android existence. We got a nice leak of the 2.1 ROM in February, whose small glitches will no doubt have been ironed out in this official release. You'll need to either hook up to the Samsung neural network using their proprietary PC Studio 7 software to leech the upgrade or just buy a new handset -- it all depends on the ratio between your disposable time and income. Guess this will make the Spica that little bit more seductive to Rogers customers, who only just got the option to own the handset last week. Full PR after the break.

Well, what do we have here? Looks like someone's got their hands on Samsung's low-cost, Android-packin' I5700 Galaxy Lite. And don't you worry -- the fine folks at ai.rs blog have assured us that the rave-tastic green battery cover will be replaced by something a little less garish when this bad boy goes into production. Otherwise, it should all be here, including: a 3.2 megapixel camera, 1GB memory, and an AMOLED display. And for further proof that HTC Click has a fight on its hands, hit the read link for plenty more glamor shots -- but not before you check out the video of Sammy's contender after the break.
