Samsung touchscreen phone 'F490'

Samsung Electronics presented its full touchscreen phone 'F490' at Mobile World Congress 2008, which has a 3.2 TFT touchscreen with 240 x 432 resolution and no keypad.

Running on the award-wining Croix UI, it features a 5M camera with a built-in LED flash, and video player supporting MPEG4, H.264, WMV and H.263 in up to VGA resolution at 30fps. This is a tri-band HSDPA/EDGE-enabled handset that is only 11.8mm-thick and a cool glossy finish.

Another cool feature has to be the pre-installed Google Search application and even the optimized full HTML web browser.

The Samsung F490 will be available from February in some European countries for around 530(EUR).

I have the TOUCH and the one thing that would make me buy this phone is if you could rotate the unit and the screen would automatically switch to landscape. I hate going through the menu to do it. If it doesnt than I think I'll pass... Also I want to see how the web and email works/looks on the phone...
