WIRELESS AND MOBILE NEWS

As CES Samsung is also unveiling the Samsung Corby.  The Samsung Corby runs on the Samsung's Touchwiz user interface and haptic feedback system, which gives users the ability to customize their Corby with applications and widgets. It has a 2 megapixel camera, colorful removable covers and a Cartoon UI. It has an FM radio and will work with removable microSD card up to 8 Gigabytes.

We think the Cartoon UI is more like a theme, the Samsung website says, "Cartoon UI theme adds quirkiness to your mobile."

The Samsung Corby features a substantial library of additional applications by providing access to Samsung's online widgets store.

The "one finger zoom" on the Corby lets users zoom in-and-out with one finger while the "smart unlock" feature allows users to unlock the phone easily by drawing a letter on the screen.

Corby users can instantly update their current status and access their friend's updates and live feeds via Facebook, MySpace and Twitter through a simple Pop-up SNS (Social Networking Service) notification feature.

The Samsung Corby also supports various community sites by integrating leading user-generated content sites such as YouTube, Flickr, Picasa and Photobucket and other popular SNS sites. Photos and videos can be uploaded easily to these sites by using the Corby's communities solution.

The Corby comes with a selection of colored back covers in yellow, white, orange, pink and two additional back covers (called 'Fashion Jackets'), which feature a unique pattern design cover and a standard black cover. The interchangeable back covers let users change the style of their handset to reflect their personal style.
The Find Music feature records a few seconds of the song and sends it to a server that identifies the track, artist, album and genre for you.
