Here’s yet another Samsung WiBro-capable phone – the SPH-M8000. It runs on the Windows Mobile 2003 Second Edition Pocket PC OS, is powered by the PXA272 520MHz processor and comes with a 2.3GHz WiBro module, VoIP support, Bluetooth 1.1 connectivity and a 2.8” 262k TFT LCD QVGA screen for S-DMB purposes. The QWERTY keyboard is useful for conjuring a speedy response to text messages. Via

Lenovo’s new PocketPC Smartphone will be available by March next year and it looks really sexy. The ET980 looks akin to the Sony Ericsson P910, runs on Windows Mobile 5.0, and is the first Windows Mobile Phone to sport a hi-resolution 4-megapixel camera. A 312MHz processor and 64MB of internal RAM powers the brain behind the ET980. A miniSD slot is provided to provide up to 128MB of external storage. Be prepared to import one of these if you’re living outside of China, Japan, or Korea.

Samsung’s SGH-i858 PDA/phone hybrid has received FCC approval. Styled after the i730, the i858 comes bundled with GSM/GPRS support, a QVGA 18-bit color screen, Bluetooth connectivity, a microSD card slot, and stereo speakers among others. The slide out keypad is not a QWERTY keyboard, thus the inclusion of a stylus that is more inclined toward PDA functionality.
