contrary to popular belief there is a lens cover .. its recessed into the lens and theres a slider button on top of it

and its almost the same size as my 815

from first look and i havent even charged it yet or turned it on

it looked like a camera rather than a phone

theres dedicated FF and stop and RW buttons on the top that i havent read what they are yet

it also has what appears to be metal tabs blocking all the ports .. charging etc . they slide out the way but dont remove

and it has a W and T button on the top for the camera

more to come .. im updating my phone book so when i transfer it its finally fixed lol

Can't wait to hear about the camera. Tell us about the camcorder if possibly. I couldn't find anything about FPS on Samsungs site, does it look smooth, or choppy? By the way NEgadgetguy thinks anyone spending this money on an A990 is a fool!

How is the Zoom on the camera?

hey i waited for eons for that 970 to drop in price and it never did

My main two things (besides call) that I want in a phone is a good camera and decent txt messaging

the battery is still charging .. I'm anal about battries .. full charged the first time so they last .. to many get ruined by not fully charging it the first time out

anywho .. the phone seems very sturdy .. not as heavy as my 815 but sturdy .. it appears well made .. all the ports as i said are covered and the covers slide very nicely .. they include a conversion pulg for there head set so you can use a standered one .. 10pin to 4pin

it takes a microSD card and that too has a nice slider cover

I'm waiting for verizon to activate it .. aparently they can remove...

Check this link but don't stop there.

It says "recommended max" 1GB. The Faqs later also say can record direct to user memory (removable) and in another link undercamcorer it says lenght of video is only limited by memory.
I think there may be more room in there. Here are the other links:
