TheSamsung SPH-i550smartphone is thePalm OS-based successor to theclamshell styleSPH-i500.[1] The SPH-i550 has a 320 x 320 internal screen and an externalOLED display. The camera takes 1 MP stills and can record video. A built-in MP3 player is controlled by external buttons without having to open the phone.
A unique feature of the i550 is that all programs and data are stored in non-volatile flash memory so that a hard reset of the Palm device will not cause information loss.
As of April 2005,Sprint Corporation hascancelled plans for the SPH-i550. The i550 is offered by any carrier in the United States. Just weeks after Sprint canceled the phone, it was announced that theSCH-i539, aPalm OS-basedsmartphone by Samsung that is very similar to the i550, was available in China. The i539 is nearly identical to the i550, except that it uses aCDMARemovable User Identity Module (R-UIM), which is similar in function to aGSMSIM card.
Evidence on theSamsung Website indicates that a carrier in Mexico is in trials with the i550. The devices being tested all have the Sprint logo.
Apetition asking Sprint to release the i550 was created, but there has been no response from Sprint yet.
