The Samsung Ace is coming to Sprint. It's worth noting because it's a cellphone that uses CDMA cellular tech, like all Sprint phones. But it also has an unlocked slot for a GSM SIM card in case you're wandering around a foreign country and want to buy a prepaid card (or just use Sprint's GSM roaming plan). Blackberry's World Edition 8830 has this too, FWIW. Jump for a shot of the phone's SIM slot, and more interesting points.
Pretty sweet, even if the GSM range is only 800/1900MHz. (Most countries use the 900/1800Mhz bands, says Wikipedia.) The Windows Mobile 6.1 phone looks like the Blackjack, but has a different keyboard. It has a 1.3MP camera, RSS reader preloaded, can be used as a USB EVDO modem and has A2DP stereo Bluetooth streaming.
