Samsung WiMAX Phone Spotted

... quite the screen on there, but we haven’t heard anything else regarding release dates or specs. The Mondi is a likely candidate for a CTIA Wireless release however, so we’ll have to swing by the Samsung booth and see what’s up. Sprint (NYSE: S) has spent a lot of time and money on Clearwire, and it now all hinges on device adoption - what kind of first impression the Mondi makes on the public will say a lot about the future of WiMAX in America.

Samsung's WiMAX-equipped SWD-M100 MID outed as Mondi

... the first official pic of that WiMAX-enabled SWD-M100 MID we spotted at MWC as well as revealed a catchier name: Mondi. The device will utilize Clearwire's Mobile WiMAX network simply dubbed "Clear." Last we heard it was running Windows Mobile 6.1, but seeing as its sporting that dedicated Windows button required for WinMo 6.5, that all could change before it's release. Speaking of which, mum's the word on pricing or availability, we're afraid. [Via Phonescoop] Filed under: Handhelds Samsung's WiMAX-equipped SWD-M100 MID outed as ...
Gadget Leak: Samsung SWD-M100 Mondi WiMax MID
Gadgetreview —
Wooops. Samsung slipped up today and showed off what is probably the first Wimax dedicated MID, the SWD-M100 Mondi. Resembling the Nokia N810, the Mondi appears to have both a touchscreen and slide out keyboard - that should satisfy both ends of the spectrum - and a front facing camera for late night nefarious video chats. Pontification appoints the Mondi to Clear’s Wimax network first, but no one really knows.
