It's life Jim but not as we know it...or in this case, it's the i760 but not as we know it! :)

Remember the Samsung i760? Well, those lucky guys over at Engadget have scored a hands-on preview of it at CES in Las Vegas. One thing though, it's undergone somewhat of a design overhaul and now I want it even more than before! :D

Pity only QVGA (I'm old, my eyesite has gone which is why I love my Universal's screen). How about Headphone connecter? Is it a std 3.5mm plug (My other gripe with the Vario II)

Looks good tho, woneder if T-mob will take it on.

Guys, I'm pretty sure this is EV-DO/CDMA (look at the tags on Engadget).

I think this is the US version of the i760 - kind of like Blackjack and i600.

[Guest nedge2k]

hmm...you may have a point there. although I doubt they'd re-design the look of the whole thing just becuase it's the CDMA ver.

Watch this space I guess...

Nice, but a 1040mAh battery? What does that give you with a CPU like that? 12 hours of stand by time? I have no experience with PPC, but my 200Mhz Smartphone has more mAh and I still could use some more...

I agree with you. The review I got from PDA.NET shows an entirely different H/W configuration, although the specs are very similar. Any idea when will it launch in Europe? :)
