Default Samsung B7300 For The Budget Minded

http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2009/...bid-winmo-fans/

"In fact, the leaked pictures we're looking at here are China Mobile-branded, suggesting that the 3G- and WiFi-free device will find a home in an area of the world where EDGE doesn't matter much, much less HSDPA. Specs are said to include a WQVGA display, GPS, Bluetooth and USB 2.0, and quadband GSM, so at least you'll be able to take this puppy wherever you need to go -- and the 12.98mm-thin shell helps make the case, too."

Hey, not everyone wants or can afford an always-on internet connection. In fact, given that China's going it's own way with respect to 3G means that a super-spiffing HSPA device won't pull its weight there anyway. Having said that, Samsung might have paid a bit more attention to the looks of the B7300. If the low-end of the market is where you're at then any differentiation you can muster is worth a look at, what with the competition in that segment.

not bad, but wifi shouldn't be absent.
and the thickness, looks like the trend for fatter stuff like the Diamond is over, thank gods.
12mm I think is still on the thick side.
