AT&T and Samsung on Tuesday introduced a smartphone with multiple features for the mobile professional. Samsung Epix is available officially from AT&T for folks living in the US. The Samsung Epix has a similar form factor as the Samsung BlackJack, but it has a touch-screen interface to go along with a full QWERTY keyboard. The Epix also has a navigational square in the center that uses optical mouse technology, a first for U.S. handsets, the companies said.
The i907 Epix rundown goes something like this: Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional, 3.6Mbps HSDPA, WiFi, Bluetooth, 2-megapixel cam, AGPS with AT&T Navigator, Video Share support, 320 x 320 2.5-inch touchscreen display, and one of those crazy “optical mice” for on-screen navigation when using the touchscreen itself is just too much trouble. The Samsung Epix also supports multiple email accounts thanks to Microsoft Direct Push technology to keep business suits up to speed at all times with their mails and messages. The Epix is available now for $199.99 with a two-year contract.
