Samsung ZX-20 shows up on Cingular

The LG CU500 was probably getting a little lonely out there as Cingular's one and only retail HSDPA handset, but we always knew that the ZX-20 should be following closely on its heels; sure enough, here it is. Gone are the FCC documents' references to video calling, but when it comes to phones supporting HSDPA on the 850 and 1900 bands, we'll take pretty much whatever we can get right now. Pricing and availability will vary by region -- in fact, it appears Cingular only wants your cash right now if you go through a Premier account -- but with the CU500's better looks, similar specs (plus a color external display), and apparently lower price, we're not getting terribly worked up about it.

Look what we have from Cingular, yet another wack a$$ phone. "Lets not put the phones out everyone's been waiting for, that Europe and Asia have already, Let's put out a high speed data flip phone, beacuse thats the kind of phone that you need high speed data on, cause we all want to download movies and watch them on our cellphones" Why are we the biggest consumers of everything on the planet, and yet so technologically behind the rest of the world? Big Business Please Wake the hell up!!!!!

Instead of wasting their time on this POS they should have realeased the moto razr v3i, save the 3g stuff for the blackberries etc... if we want toys the v3i makes more sense.
