Samsung and T-Mobile USA announced the second Behold all-touchscreen device. Unlike the original Behold, the second generation is not a feature phone. Rather it’s powered by Android, providing tons of new capabilities to its future users.
Specs wise, the Behold II comes with a 3.2-inch AMOLED touchscreen (we’re not sure whether it’s capacitive or resistive), 5-megapixel camera with auto-focus and flash, aGPS, WiFi, 3G, 16GB of built-in storage, Bluetooth 2.1, Microsoft Exchange support, voicemail, and so on. Samsung’s sexy TouchWIZ user interface is running the show on top of Android.
Availability and pricing information were not detailed. All we know is that the Behold II is “scheduled to launch before the start of the holidays,” meaning we’re talking weeks rather than months here. Stay tuned…

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.
