confused about A960

On this article, it says that the A960 will have a microSD slot as one of its features that could be used for data, music, and pictures/video.

But on the CTIA report, it says it won't have a microSD slot.

So which is it???? 😕

a960

What a great design. This is the type of handset that brings me into stores.

Prof.Choas

We talked to a Samsung rep. recently that said that Sprint decided against the a960.

I hope he is wrong. It looks really cool.

Samsung D407 PTT

The Samsung D407 for Cingy looks pretty sweet. Feature wise it isn't going to knock anyones sox off, but it does show that Cingy PTT is here to stay. And if you count the d407, CG300, z525, d347, and d357 there are 5 Cingy PTT phones to Nextel's how many? Yeah Cingy is doing it REAL BIG in 2k6!
