How does this differ from the i320?

Anyone know if it will eventually be available on T-Mobile (USA) as well? With wi-fi?

I don't think this phone will ever be on Tmo. Tmo doesn't have 3G and they already have the similar Dash and it has wifi.

I think the Samsung looks great, I'm extremely happy with the Dash, but a little competition never hurt.

Not sure. I'm interested in knowing this as well.

What kind of USB connector does it have (I'm really not happy with HTC's direction on connectors)

Thanks!
IIRC it's quad band phone and it's my guess that it's the same stupid connector that the i320 has. :?

The i320 is Tri-band and it's European tri band, not what's used in North America. So the reception isn't as good. The i607 should be Quad-band which means much better reception here.

While your there, click on the word "'download" under the pic of the BJ for the best hi res pics I've seen yet! This thing is going to be HUGE for Cingular.

Did you play the videos below that? Cingular has done a great job advertising this phone. I really think it's gonna be huge. After seeing the videos, I am beginning to really like the design of the phone. I actually considered this one but I still have another 1 1/2 yrs with tmo. If I bought the BJ I wouldn't get 3G service for quite some time and would lose wifi also. I think I still like the design, keyboard, feel, and battery life on the Dash a little better but the BJ is just a hair behind. But for someone with Cingy, it's a great smartphone.
