The Samsung G810 is rumored to be running S60 3rd Edition Feature Pack 1, the same OS as the Nokia N95, have a 5 megapixel camera, like the Nokia N95, include built in GPS, like the Nokia N95, yet unlike Finland’s flagship this Korean Kontestant (yes I know I put a K in there) has 3x optical zoom, antishake, microUSB, 1200 mAh battery all in a case that is 18 mm thick.

Color me impressed, I need to check out the Samsung booth at Mobile World Congress. Here is hoping I don’t have a sacrifice a kitten to the internet gods for a standard 3.5 mm headphone jack. This is Samsung, you never know. Price: 580 euros.

    These Samsung Series 60 phones have always looked very good in paper. But I’ve never seen them being sold in Europe. I’ve come to conclusion that for some reason they are not sold in Europe (atleast without a contract).

    Can someone point me where I can purchase SGH-i560, i550, i520, i500 or i400 on-line (without a contract)?

    Um, how exactly is it going to have optical zoom if it’s only 18mm thick?
