"They said the Sammy rep had just been by a week before and told them the i760 was not going to be released as planned.

It is going back into the shop to get Rev A in the hardware. Sammy apparently believes the i760 cannot sell for long against the 6800 and other PDA phones with no hope of a Rev A upgrade."

This sounds dubious. It's very late in the day for that, it would require all their testing to start again & resubmission to the FCC, etc. And this from the company that released the i730 with 2k3se on it in 05, waiting a full year to release a WM5 upgrade & never including it in their new i730s? Unless they feel they learned something from the i730, it just doesn't sound like something they'd do. Ironic too is the fact that the most anticipated phone ever is being released with EDGE, while Verizon is worrying that their 3G phone may not be fast enough.
