You've seen the unboxing, you've read over the stats time and time again, you've had the day marked on your calendar for weeks...nay months! The day is finally here! Those days of T-Mobile Customer Service Representatives pushing the aging Wing whenever a customer brings up that "other phone" are now a thing of the past!

Normally, we would have put this up a little earlier, but with the way things are around here I guess it's better late than never right? The Samsung Behold is now available for purchase and upgrade over at T-Mobile in both Espresso and Rose for the low low price of $149.99 after that $50 mail in rebate.

There has been quite a lot of excitement about this phone over in the forums, so head on over to the Samsung area and let us know what you think!

The Samsung Eternity is a phone that zigs nicely, but we really wanted it to zag.

Features for which we didn't have high hopes, like the onscreen keyboard or the GPS navigation, actually performed much better than we expected, while some of the key features for this device, like the AT&T Mobile TV service or the Web browser, fell flat.

The phone was nice and responsive, whether we were moving widgets around on the screen or switching the screen orientation as we rotated the phone, and though we think Samsung needs to take the TouchWIZ interface back to the drawing board, once we dug past the standby screen to reach the real features on this phone, it was easy to come away pleased, if not impressed.

Release: November 2008. Price: $150.

The Tocco Lite is actually Samsung S5230, the handset we saw back in March alongside the Samsung S5600.

The different moniker is used by Samsung due to the fact that its Tocco brand has become quite popular in the UK (the F480 and the UltraTouch S8300 are sold under this brand).

The features of Tocco Lite include:

* Quad-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE connectivity

* 3 inch TFT touchscreen display with 262K color and 240 x 400 pixels

* TouchWiz UI

* Accelerometer

* Facebook, MySpace and YouTube widgets

* Bluetooth 2.1

* Samsung DNSe 2.0 music technology

* FM Radio with RDS

* 3.2 MP camera

* 50 MB of built-in memory

* microSD card support, up to 8 GB

* 104 x 53 x 11.9 mm

Samsung Tocco Lite / S5230 will be available in the UK starting May.

NAVTEQ announced that it has signed an agreement to supply NAVTEQ map data and content to Samsung Electronics.

Samsung Electronics will have access to all 76 countries in the NAVTEQ map database. The agreement also allows Samsung Electronics the rights to utilize NAVTEQ content including Visual Content, Speed Limits, Extended Lanes and NAVTEQ Discover Cities.

Samsung Electronics will launch the Samsung I8910 HD (also known as the OMNIA HD) with NAVTEQ Map and content in Europe in May. The GPS-enabled Samsung I8910 HD will offer drivers an enriched navigation experience through enhanced visual content such as 3D landmarks and 3D city models. It also offers advanced navigation with speed limits and extended lanes. More uniquely with NAVTEQ Discover Cities on Samsung I8910 HD, urban travelers will be able to take full advantage of their surroundings and help them get from place to place with a variety of routing options.

The Samsung I8910 HD is incorporated with a social networking functionality which uses NAVTEQ map data and content. It allows users to find their friends online and determine the quickest way to route or walk to them. Users can also use the local POI search capability and find places recommended by their friends.

We first saw Verizon's Samsung Alias 2 U750 at the end of March, but back then there were no details about its release date.

Now it looks like the new Alias 2 is ready to hit the shelves on May 11, and, according to Phone Arena, it will come with e-ink technology - as initially assumed.

Samsung Alias 2's "Magic Key keypad" uses e-ink to transform itself from a regular alphanumeric keypad into a full QWERTY one, depending on how you open the clamshell.

The good: The Samsung Impression has a brilliant touch screen, a roomy keyboard, and an intuitive design. It offers a functional midrange feature set and admirable multimedia performance and call quality.

The bad: The Samsung Impression has a proprietary headset jack, the camera lacks a flash, and keyboard shortcuts are few. Also, it lacks voice dialing and the promised battery life is rather short.

The bottom line: The Samsung Impression isn't perfect, but it ranks high on our list as a messaging and multimedia phone.

Samsung Omnia Pro B7330 is a clear upgrade to Omnia PRO B7320 and when you compare them head to head, the differences aren't many. To start with, B7330 smartphone has a revamped key design and will come pre-installed with Windows Mobile 6.5 OS.

The screen too is bumped to 2.63-inches (320×320) as compared to B7320's 2.4-inch (320×240). Other changes are its 1500mAh battery, cut the thickness by around 2mm and 320MB of internal memory (we're not sure if it includes ROM as well).

Amongst the common things, this phone too has HSDPA, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, 3.2MP camera, GPS and a microSD card slot.

Here are the main specs of Samsung Corby:

* Quad-band GSM connectivity with GPRS and EDGE
* 2.8 inch QVGA touchscreen display
* Access to YouTube, MySpace and Facebook
* Bluetooth 2.1 with A2DP
* MP3 player
* FM radio
* 2MP camera
* MicroSD card support
* 103 x 57 x 13 mm
* 92 grams

Samsung Corby S3650 was recently approved by the FCC, so it might be launched in the US, via AT&T or T-Mobile, as a 3G-less, inexpensive handset.

the Samsung S3650 Corby should be available in Europe in the next few weeks - just like the weird-looking Samsung B3310.

We knew this was coming, it's just matter of time.  Today, Verizon finally released the Samsung Rogue on it's website.

Here are some key features:

• Ultra Brilliant Display
• Hybrid Forum factor
• Rich HTML Browsing
• Optimized Messaging
• Advance Features
• Enhanced 3.0 MP Camera
• Social Networking Widgets.

The Rogue is  notably featuring a 3.1-inch AMOLED display (Verizon calls it "ultra brilliant"), a 3 megapixel cam with flash and on-board editing, microSD support up to 16GB, full HTML browsing, Microsoft Office document viewing, TouchWiz, and naturally, that full slide-out keyboard that makes it much better than the old Samsung Glyde.
