Samsung unveiled a new fancy device — or that’s more of them — marked SCH-W830 for SK Telecom and SPH-W8350 for LG Telecom. The “fancy” part comes from the fact that this clamshell(s) comes with external round screen, which looks super-cool. Moreover, at 13.4mm – it’s a super slim handset that also comes with a button on the hinge for opening of the clam — no, need for manual “work.”
Rest of the specs include 2.6-inch QVGA screen, 2-megapixel camera, media player, subway maps, SOS function, Bluetooth, microSD card, and a battery that can sustain up to 5 hours of talk and/or up to 390 hours of standby time. It is still unclear whether this baby will ever leave the shores of Korean peninsula, but we’re certainly hope to give it try. In the meantime, South Koreans can grab it in either blue, pink or white for 500,000 Won, which is about $400.

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
