Here’s some more Verizon news for you. They’ll start selling the Samsung Trance U490 on April 24th, or so the rumorville has it. It’s not exactly a high end phone, but the Bang & Olufsen ICEpower should be a welcome technology for any music snob since it’s said to reproduce music in astonishing quality. Specs you ask? 2.1-inch 176×200 display, 1.3 megapixel camera, CDMA 1X 800/1900mHz, 1GB of internal memory with microSD card slot for expansion, 3.5mm headphone jack, Bluetooth with A2DP, media player (duh) and the usual cell phone specage.
Expect the Samsung Trance U490 to retail for $50 after a $50 mail-in-rebate + 2-year contract signing or $120 after a $50 mail-in-rebate and 1-year contract signing.

I didn’t know this, but Sony Ericsson is in the business of private labeling cell phones and from the looks of Japanese KDDI’s iida G9 slider phone they’re doing a damn good job. On the outside of the handset is a 3-inch 480×854 touchscreen LCD, microSD card slot, and 3.2 megapixel camera. Stuffed inside the handset is a 1Seg TV tuner, CDMA and GSM support, GPS, Bluetooth, 3.5 hour talk time and 250 hour standby time. When the G9 launches this summer it will be available in black finish with green accents, a titanium finish with silver accents and a mirror finish with pink accents.
