Samsung is a leading designer of ultra-thin and other types of phones with plenty of innovation awards under its belt. Just because thin candybar and clamshell phones happen to be a trend in cellphone design doesn't mean these are Motorola knock-offs. <br><br>--Travis Hudson, MWW Group on behalf of Samsung]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[thudson]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 23rd 2007 12:25PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Samsung's Ultra A717 and A727 get a date with AT&amp;T]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/01/samsungs-ultra-a717-and-a727-get-a-date-with-atandt/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/01/samsungs-ultra-a717-and-a727-get-a-date-with-atandt/</guid><description><![CDATA["can anyone say SLVR and RAZR. The imitations are getting old."<br><br>Please give it a rest.  There are two popular types of phones, flip and candybar.  Just because a company makes them thin does not mean they are copying them.  Do you expect them to just start releasing fatter phones?  Oh but then you would accuse them of copying older, thicker motoroloa phones.  The flip phone looks nothing like the RAZR.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Travis]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 1st 2007 9:28AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Samsung's Ultra A717 and A727 get a date with AT&amp;T]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/01/samsungs-ultra-a717-and-a727-get-a-date-with-atandt/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/01/samsungs-ultra-a717-and-a727-get-a-date-with-atandt/</guid><description><![CDATA[Apart from the fact that Samsung's Ultra line looks a lot better than the MTRLs... That said the Sony 3G slim Walkman phone looks even better. <br><br>Thumbs down for dorky double-branding. Why, ATT, why? It just makes the phones look uglier.

Looks exactly like a slvr. I granted the flip is a lil longer but the keypads look very very similar to the morotola's. And yes you can make sleek, thin nice looking phones w/o making RAZR/SLVR knock offs]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[ryanworrell]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 1st 2007 10:13AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Samsung's Ultra A717 and A727 get a date with AT&amp;T]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/01/samsungs-ultra-a717-and-a727-get-a-date-with-atandt/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/01/samsungs-ultra-a717-and-a727-get-a-date-with-atandt/</guid><description><![CDATA[isn't the flip a Sprint M610?  ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[fashionista]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 1st 2007 10:20AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Samsung's Ultra A717 and A727 get a date with AT&amp;T]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/01/samsungs-ultra-a717-and-a727-get-a-date-with-atandt/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/01/samsungs-ultra-a717-and-a727-get-a-date-with-atandt/</guid><description><![CDATA[I don't understand the point of the 727.
