Samsung u550 now available on Verizon
A month ago, we’ve seen Samsung U550 passing the FCC hurdle and now, after a month-long wait, it’s here. You could think the wait was worth it – but you would be so wrong. The only reason I could think of is that Verizon wanted to release the U550 after the Valentine’s Day. There’s nothing…
