This new phone from Samsung, called the Instinct is a probable contender for the iPhone. Many companies are coming out with their versions of the iPhone. Many have failed, and this seems to be one that might come close.
It does run off the faster 3G network that the iPhone does not use...yet. It is said to have a very friendly user interface and has expandable memory, vibration each time you tap the screen, and even a replaceable battery.
However the mail and internet programs are said to not be as smooth as the iPhone's. My personal opinion - this phone looks pretty cool and seems like it could offer some great things that the iPhone doesn't but the Apple interface on iPhone is one that will never be duplicated. It also is strange that every company who puts out an iPhone contender feels it is necessary to make the phone look exactly like the iPhone. Can people not make their own designs? Maybe find something that is even more appealing.
We will see what happens, especially in this coming summer with more and more iPhone competition. However, once the iPhone SDK is in full bloom...these other phones might be hurting.
