It looks pretty legit to me with the only exception being that the codes are the same from top to bottom. For different phones with different rebate amounts, wouldn't you think the codes along the right side of those dates would be different on each item? I don't know how VZW does rebates, so I have to defer to the rest of the room.

 

CellPhoneSignal has secured a document showing that T-Mobile USA will release the Samsung SGH-t459 Gravity in November. The Gravity is expected to be a candybar cell phone featuring a slide-out QWERTY keyboard, in addition to its numeric keypad, for convenient text input.

 

According to the document, the Samsung Gravity features a fixed focus 1.3 megapixel camera with video recording capabilities and an accompanying microSD card slot for extra storage. Bluetooth with A2DP support for wireless stereo headsets, as well as support for T-Mobile's MyFaves service, is also expected to be on-board.

This attractively-priced full touch screen handset is complete with the latest touch technology and features found in the existing high-end full touch screen handsets currently available on the market.

 

 

• 3" Full touch screen

 

The 3.0 inch wide full touch screen is more screen "real estate" to better enjoy watching videos, playing games, and looking at photos. Bigger is better and that also makes it easier to use by physical touch since larger icons are easier to navigate than smaller ones.

 

• Active flash UI

 

The user interface is so intuitive that users will want to explore and master all of the functions and features of the LG-KP500. The UI allows users to access menus easily and shift around other menus simply and quickly with just one touch.

 

• Handwriting & Editing

 

The easy-to-use smart handwriting recognition function of the LG-KP500 allows users to send text messages without using the touch keyboard. It is possible to write in complicated languages such as Chinese. In the photo mode, users can easily edit their photos with the stylus pen.

 

• Motion sensor game

Using advanced motion sensor technology, the LG-KP500 adds more fun interactivity to games so users can enjoy mobile entertainment in a more dynamic and exciting way.

The games loaded on the LG-KP500 use a motion sensor that requires the user's eye-hand coordination to balance, flip, shift, and twist the handset to play the games.

 

• Auto rotating display

The QWERTY onscreen keyboard slides into view when the LG-KP500 is held horizontally, and the auto rotating display always shifts images or documents for proper viewing no matter which way the handset is turned.

 

• Embedded stylus pen

Since the stylus is embedded in the handset, the user instantly write a memo or edit a photo without having to search around for the stylus pen which often gets lost or misplaced.
The appearance of the phone is not sacrificed with the embedded, artfully "concealed" in the handset.
