The Samsung Marcello spotted in Sprint’s leaked roadmap is apparently coming soon, as evidenced by some new pictures showing off the device in blue and purple. It’ll be bearing the market name M550 Exclaim, and feature a 2.6″ QVGA screen, 2 megapixel camera, EVDO Rev. 0, aGPS, and a distinctive dual-sliding layout. This is yet another cheap texting phone making the rounds lately, but there are more than enough folks out there who want easy texting without all the financial baggage of a smartphone. Social networking utilities for MySpace and Facebook will be tightly bundled to make this package a solid option for the young’uns. Keep an eye out for the Exclaim on Sprint in June.
