Shoot me if I understand Samsung’s naming scheme. They already have the Samsung Wave 2 (Wave 525), but now they unveiled the Wave II, which is the true successor to the original Bada-powered smartphone. However, you/we shouldn’t expect tons of new features on board — after all, even the original Wave rocks, specs wise. The…

Samsung Galaxy S coming to NTT DoCoMo in October, Galaxy Tab in March in Japan
Although Samsung has released its Galaxy S smartphone in quite a few countries, Japan is not one of them. I’m not sure why that’s the case, but what do I know – I would expect that the ever hi-tech people of Japan dig Android and high-end smartphones such as the Galaxy S. Anyway, we just…
