This Sunday(11/20) along with launching the "buy a Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9 and get a free Samsung Galaxy SII or Skyrocket deal," AT&T is releasing three other smartphones, Samsung Captivate Glide, Samsung DoubleTime and Pantech Pocket.
The Samsung Captivate Glide is geared for business with enterprise features and a keyboard. It will sell for $149.99 from AT&T with a contract.
The Samsung Captivate Glide runs Android 2.3, has a slide out QWERTY keyboard, 4" super AMOLED touchscreen, 8MP camera, front-facing camera, 1 GB of RAM, HDMI playback, encryption, VPN, MDM, and 1GHz dual-core processor. Other features should include, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and microSD card.
The processor is slower than the Samsung Galaxy S II with a 1.2 GHz dual core processor, however, the keyboard will be handy for business correspondence. The fastest most powerful smartphone on the AT&T network is the Samsung Galaxy SII Skyrocket.
The Samsung Captivate Glide is a dead ringer for the Samsung Stratosphere from Verizon Wireless which is bit more rounded and has DLNA but not HDMI.
For those who want to go green AT&T also announced the Motorola P793 Back-Up Battery Charger that compatible with all USB devices by major manufacturers and is the first Motorola Mobility power product or accessory built using 25 percent post-consumer recycled content plastic.
Will there be any discounts at a place like Best Buy on Black Friday for the Captivate Glide?
My husband says he needs an "Android" with a keyboard that will last him two years so he wants it fast.. 149.99 isn't in the budget right now.
