" The Samsung Memoir could easily be mistaken for a real camera. On one side is a full touch-screen, and on the other is an 8-megapixel camera, 16x digital zoom, and Xenon flash.\n\nThe phone, which we first saw hints of in December, will run on T-Mobile&#39;s 3G network. Besides the 8-megapixel camera, it also has a full-touch virtual QWERTY keypad, a music and video player, built in GPS, and Bluetooth.\n\nSAMSUNG MOBILE AND T-MOBILE USA INTRODUCE BEST-IN-CLASS\n\n8-MEGAPIXEL CAMERA PHONE\n\nSamsung Memoir™ Captures and Shares High-Quality Images\n\nWith Advanced Features and Touch Screen\n\nDALLAS, and BELLEVUE, WASH. — Feb. 5, 2009 — Samsung Telecommunications America (Samsung Mobile) and T-Mobile USA, Inc., today announced the upcoming availability of the Samsung Memoir™, a full touch-screen mobile phone equipped with an 8-megapixel camera and premium multimedia features, placing it among the highest quality imaging phones available in the U.S.\n\nThe Memoir, available exclusively from T-Mobile, is designed to look and feel like a customer&#39;s current point-and-shoot digital camera.
