Don’t have any summer holiday plans? Howzabout four nights in Seoul on Samsung’s dime? Fly business class round trip, take a tour of the HQ, pick up their new Jet handset, and be wined and dined like a king- nay, god. What’s the catch? Just e-mail Samsung 200-300 words of what you think the key features of the mobile phone of the future. That’s an awful lot to ask for in such a tiny span, but it’s well worth the payoff if you can manage it. The deadline for entries is 5pm GMT on Wednesday 8 July 2009 (i.e. tomorrow) so y’all better get cracking if you want to win!

About The Author
Simon Sage
Simon Sage’s education largely surrounded writing, technology and online community, leading him to begin his blogging career at www.BlackBerryCool.com and to quickly discover a vibrant and active community surrounding BlackBerry and mobile technology. In exploring RIM’s platform, he has learned what enterprises are looking for in mobility as well as what makes the innocuous BlackBerry so appealing to them. Recently Simon’s been covering RIM’s gradual move into an already-crowded consumer market, and the impact of burgeoning challengers, such as the iPhone, as well as long-time leaders, like Nokia, on BlackBerry’s advancement.
With plenty of content under his belt, Simon will be branching off a bit to see what other smartphone manufacturers are working on while still using BlackBerry as a barometer. At IntoMobile, you can count on his posts being even-handed, well-informed and thought-out.
