Samsung’s first Android phone has worked its way through the FCC pipes on its way to Sprint. We still know very little about the InstinctQ, other than that it will have EV-DO and Wi-Fi. Samsung has already shown with the I7500 Galaxy that they aren’t doing anything fancy with the user interface like HTC, Motorola and Sony Ericsson, but who knows, maybe they’ll cook something up after getting used to the OS. Release date and price point are entirely guesswork right now, but Samsung did say that they would have an Android phone under the $100 mark this year, and rumours were floating around last month about a November release. Anyone excited for the first QWERTY Android smartphone since the G1?
