Samsung keeps releasing interesting devices. Just today we’ve spotted a new handset that looks pretty much like one of their other devices – the Instinct. The so called a867 model will probably be marketed as Samsung Eternity and will be launched next month on AT&T (NYSE: T). From what we hear, users will be able to grab the all-touchscreen equipped device for about $150 on a contract.
Specs wise, expect a 3 megapixel camera, aGPS, standard 3.5mm headphone jack, microSD slot and a MediaFLO mobile TV receiver. No Windows Mobile here, though — rather Sammy will use its proprietary feature phone OS to run the show. Stay tuned as we get more intel on this baby…

Similar to the Vu, the Samsung model isn’t described as a smartphone and so will compete more against high-end media phones. Samsung will bring its in-house operating system with a TouchWiz layer rather than use Windows Mobile like some of its touch devices. The leak would have the Eternity ship in November for $149 with a two-year plan. There’s already a fans forum for this at http://www.Samsung-Eternity.com check it out folks.
