AT&T's Samsung A797 pawned on Craigslist, definitely under the table
If you're looking for a Palm Pre that's
made by Samsung, not running webOS, and AT&T branded... well,
bless your heart, because today's your lucky day. Craigslist (of
all places) has unveiled the first shots of what's said to be the
Sammy a797, a full-touch feature phone with a slide-out QWERTY
keyboard -- a form factor arguably popularized by Palm's baby. We
don't know a blasted thing about this phone other than what you see
here, but we do know that the lucky individual that
currently has it is pawning it for a bargain-basement price of
$115... which is probably a good deal less than AT&T will sell
it for, whenever it launches. Totally legit, right?

Sprint's Samsung m850 Dash in the wild with sweet, action-packed motion blur
We'd just seen the m850 Dash
earn its FCC wings earlier today, and now here it is again --
this time in living color. Though we don't know whether it'll
ultimately end up trading the Dash name we've heard so far for more
familiar Instinct
branding, it goes without saying that the new model is a spiritual
member of the Instinct family, taking the curvy industrial design
first seen in the s30 to another
level. We'll admit, it's pretty -- but as we've said before, it
remains to be seen how relevant a phone like this will ultimately
be in the face of Android-powered
models from Sammy on Sprint in the same price range.
[Thanks, Matt]

Samsung m850 Dash for Sprint finds itself flush with FCC approval
That slick, shiny, Instinct-ish
m850 Dash that
first broke on invisibleSHIELD's site a few months back has
been refreshed to the forefront of our memory today thanks to the
good ol' boys and girls at the FCC. We can't really make anything
of the filing beyond the fact that it'll have EV-DO, Bluetooth, and
WiFi (nice), but we did find it interesting that the Samsung dude
working to get the phone approved specifically says "We'd
appreciated [sic] it if you would issue Grants ASAP," suggesting
that someone -- say, Sprint, for instance -- is in a rush to get
this puppy to market. With the s30 down below,
the business case for the Dash (or whatever the go-to-market name
ends up being) is a tricky one -- especially with an onslaught of
Android gear on the way from these guys -- but we imagine they'll
sell a few.

Samsung Solstice for AT&T spotted on official site, coming in at $99.99 next week?
Remember that midrange full-touch Samsung Infinity that was
rumored for AT&T a while back? It looks like the stars are
aligning for a model called the Solstice to be launching on the
carrier in the next few days -- and it looks (and sounds)
suspiciously like what we'd all expected out of the Infinity.
Basically, this looks to be Sammy's mainstream touch offering for
AT&T, with a relatively meager 2 megapixel cam, QVGA display,
dual-band 3G, and not a whole heck of a lot else. The good news is
that you should be getting a good deal in exchange for the light
spec sheet -- Boy Genius Report has the Solstice launching
this coming Sunday, August 2 for $99.99 on contract.
Coincidentally, Samsung's official product directory conspicuously
shows a Solstice off in the distance of its page banner, so yeah,
this thing is definitely happening one way or another -- only
question is whether we've got the specs, pricing, and launch date
all nailed.
Verizon Wireless and AT&T engage in legal fisticuffs over ad slogans
Which North American wireless provider do you think is telling the
truth in its advertising? If you answered "none of 'em," you're
probably right, but that's not stopping Verizon Wireless from going
to court to uphold its commercial honor, having been called out by
AT&T earlier this month. VZW took the A train down to US
District Court in Manhattan asking that its slogans like "America's
Most Reliable 3G Network" be validated, claims AT&T earlier
said were false. We're not quite sure why 'ol Blue and White is
getting feisty, since it's had its fair share of
issues, but maybe this is just some attempt to make the two
look like they hate each other in public while exchanging sweet
nothings and
text messaging price hikes in private. All we know is this
isn't the first time carriers have battled over such claims,
and it sure won't be the last.
Samsung Link launches on Virgin Mobile Canada
If you're
looking for EV-DO, go ahead and keep right on lookin' because
you're not going to find it here -- but otherwise, the Link offers
portrait QWERTY on the cheap alongside a 1.3 megapixel cam, microSD
slot, and stereo Bluetooth. If you like what you see, you can go
ahead and grab it now for CAD $99.99 (about $92) on prepaid or CAD
$29.99 (about $28) on a three-year deal. Sorry, Bell guys -- it's
coming soon. We think.
