If it is, I will never QUIT CINGULAR. Lol. I have been dying for the d900, but for Cingular w/ 3G. Hopefully it has it, if not, I will still be buying this device because the camera is sick.

The SE K790a camera is sicker.

True...but we have no idea what changes might be made to the D900. If it has HSDPA, it's a lock (for me). SE and Nokia need to start pushing out more HSDPA phone aimed at the US for me to be mildly interested in any SE or Nokia device. Right now only the SE Z750 has my attention.

I can't see it in FF either. I'm not home, otherwise I could try it with Opera, but there's probably no pic.

The rebate sheet came out, but it's not listed under the 3G section. The A717 is tho...

Why? Phone Arena did a camera comparison between the K800, D900 and N73 and guess which phone came out on top?

Oh yes, the Samsung.

Unfortunatly I found an upsetting A437 http://www.buywirelessnow.com/cellc...del/1017_284039

Posted by: keiri

Yeah, this is one low-end phone...the screen is only like 128x160.

engadet said $420...but this is the supposed replacement for the C417

Posted by: Lil Moshi

yeah, it's definatly not $420 because its a GO-PHONE which means that its probably not the d900 :'(

*sigh*

hopefully there IS a D900 inline.

Well, the D900 shared the first place with K800. K800 flash is the best, but overall camera performance of the D900 is as good as the one of the K800/790.

For anyone curious:

3-megapixel camera-phones comparison: D900, K800, N73, N80, N93

A D900 would be nice. I have been tempted to buy one (unlocked), but the price is still a little high for my tatse. It is, nonetheless, one of the better phones Samsung has made. (I have played with it, but never owned it.)

Posted by: Jayden0606

I've played with it also. The video was kind of small on that screen (Family Guy), it is under 300$ now.

i have the A437, it is not a D900.

its a good clamshell / flip phone. i'd replace a razr with it in a heatbeat. but it is not going to compete with the SE or D900. no external memory card.

Posted by: Lil Moshi

How do you have it? And if you really do can you post some pictures?

Posted by: Isriam

no i won't post pics. but what do you want to know about it. its a thin flip phone, quadband GSM. crappy samsung camera, crappy external LCD. but a very good midrange phone.

Posted by: Lil Moshi

Did you buy it?

Posted by: tuolumne

It is sold as the Quadband SGH-E790 in Russia and is equipped with a 2MP camera, MicroSD slot, Stereo Bluetooth, Class 10 EDGE, and a 176x220 262K display. It also has a hidden 16 color OLED under the front facia (which is a black mirror). Of course all the good stuff will probobly be stripped out by the time it gets here

16.5mm thick.

Posted by: Isriam

that is not the A437. the inside looks like it, but not the outside. and the LCD is monochrome on the outside.

Posted by: tuolumne

...That's because that is the E790, the model it's based off of.

Posted by: blacksrt4guy

Thats butt ugly.

Posted by: Lil Moshi

So this is obviously not a slider phone dang

Posted by: Isriam

no, it looks like a normal black flip phone. not spectacular. i like it though, its enjoyable. everything seems to work well, just not like a super phone or anything. multimedia capabilities suck though.

Posted by: tuolumne

Sprint just launched their m300, so here's a look at what the a437 will look like...

(on right)

Posted by: Isriam

as i said before the outside does not look like the A437. the inside looks fairly close though.

Posted by: tuolumne

Care to explain it's differences?

Posted by: Isriam

here is what the phone looks like on the outside. feel free to post this somewhere else, i'm not going to use my personal site to host images.
