I wonder more about that buddy and friend beacon, that sounds kinda interesting, and the Drift device/s sound like they have GPS location ability, which would go hand in hand with the buddy/friend beacon. Also my guess is that the Drift will be a black model and the Snow Drift a white model, one can only hope though.

seems like you are correct
Quote:
In December it will launch in white, so there will be 2 colors of the Drift. The Drift is the Mighty phone. Repeat, the Mighty was renamed to the Drift. It will have 2.0 MP camera and it is built by Samsung. GPS capabilites also. Price range is unknown, but the person said he has heard $200-$250.
