Just as we expected, MetroPCS has started selling the Samsung Messager successor simply called Messager II, model SCH-R560. We’re talking about the same kind of device that prides itself with both numeric keypad and full slide-out QWERTY keyboard, which is therefore ideal for heavy texters. Of course, the updated model is bit slicker and also packs EV-DO connectivity support, as well as the better camera (2-megapixel as opposed to 1.3-megapixel of the original Messager) that can also take videos now. All this could be yours for $149 sans any MetroPCS contracts signed.
For the record, the Samsung Messager II is already available in Canada some time now, where we spotted two carriers offering the phone as the Samsung Vice.

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.
