Samsung’s Cetus SGH-i917 sashays into FCC database, winks seductively at AT&T
Aug 6th
AT&T came right out and confessed that it would be ” the premiere carrier ” for Windows Phone 7 , and while it’s obviously far too early to say if that’ll be the case, this ain’t a bad way to start proving one’s point. Samsung’s Cetus (SGH-i917) was just recently confirmed to be one of the first commercial Windows Phone 7 devices last week, and now the always-disclosing FCC database has shed even more light on the phone’s intentions. Based on the mention of 850 / 1,900MHz frequency support — and that whole “SGH-i917 (ATT)” marking on the label — it’s pretty safe to assume that this 4-inch, AMOLED-packin’ superphone will soon be fighting with the iPhone 4 for shelf space. There’s obviously no indication of when Ma Bell plans on releasing this one to the wilds, but it’s typically not too far out after hitting this milestone. Giddy yet?

Samsung’s 4-inch Windows Phone 7 handset gets named: Cetus (SGH-i917)
Jul 30th
You’d probably assume that Samsung would have a difficult time overshadowing the Galaxy S right now, but all it really takes is a salacious Bluetooth SIG entry that leaves only the most important parts to the imagination. We’ve known for some time now that Sammy would be one of Microsoft’s closest Windows Phone 7 launch partners, and we’ve even taken the time to toy with a prototype earlier in the year. But a new Bluetooth certification is now all-but-confirming a name: Cetus. The SGH-i917 is apt to be North America’s first WP7 device from Samsung, a 4-inch smartphone with an 800 x 480 AMOLED display, 5 megapixel camera, a VGA front-facing camera , an FM radio tuner, inbuilt GPS, 802.11b/g/n WiFi, USB 2.0 and of course, Bluetooth. As for pricing, availability and form factor? “Not yet.” Samsung’s 4-inch Windows Phone 7 handset gets named: Cetus (SGH-i917) originally appeared on Engadget on Fri, 30 Jul 2010 10:54:00 EDT.

Samsung GT-S8500 is first with Bluetooth 3.0
Feb 2nd
And here we have it: what’s likely to be the world’s first Bluetooth 3.0 phone courtesy of the Bluetooth Special Interest Group (SIG). According to the filing’s description, the “compact and slim” Samsung GT-S8500 is a touchscreen slate phone with a “high resolution” 3.1-inch OLED sporting a TouchWIZ UI and quad-band GSM/EDGE radios. The advantages of the 3.0 Bluetooth spec approved in April are faster throughput (up to 24Mbps) and more frugal power usage — both welcome advances in modern media-playing handsets. Although it’s not stated we can assume an official launch in Barcelona for Mobile World Congress.
