AT&T's Samsung A797 pawned on Craigslist, definitely under the table

If you're looking for a Palm Pre that's made by Samsung, not running webOS, and AT&T branded... well, bless your heart, because today's your lucky day. Craigslist (of all places) has unveiled the first shots of what's said to be the Sammy a797, a full-touch feature phone with a slide-out QWERTY keyboard -- a form factor arguably popularized by Palm's baby. We don't know a blasted thing about this phone other than what you see here, but we do know that the lucky individual that currently has it is pawning it for a bargain-basement price of $115... which is probably a good deal less than AT&T will sell it for, whenever it launches. Totally legit, right?

Its a KIRF!
On the stalls of Shenzen you can find plenty of simil-Palm Pre, branded Apple, Gucci, Prada, and Sony Vaio.
I bet someone thought of applying the Sammy logo to it too.

I would so get this if I was in the area.

@Plexus I understand the whole putting Sammy logo's on "fakes" but who would put an AT&T logo on a phone....

Um, who would be looking for a Palm Pre that doesn't have webOS and is on AT&T

First of all Samsung's OS sucks?

Second webOS is like the second best OS next to the iPhone OS

Third AT&T is great but they also suck alot I'd go with Sprint or T-Mobile (T-Mobile is getting the Pre GSM version 32GB)
