Samsung’s i7410 projector phone (knwn also as the Samsung Show) has been showcased at the MWC 2009 event today. It integrates Texas Instrument’s DLP pico technology, allowing the device to project images over area size ranging from 5" to 50" with a resolution of 480x320 pix. Even though it incorporates a projector, it still looks thin and sleek, and also packs a 3.2" WQVGA touch-sensitive display, a 5Mpix camera and the TouchWiz UI.

Samsung has introduced its upcoming Omnia HD. The device is an 8Mpix cameraphone, and comes with the following features:

• 8Mpix camera;
• Video capture: 1280 x 720 @ 24fps;
• HDMI out;
• 3.7" touchscreen display;
• HSUPA data;
• GPS;
• Bluetooth;
• 8 or 16GB or storage;
• microSDHC car

Today at MWC Samsung has officially announced its own 8Mpix cameraphone (see SE W995) called Memoir, which we've already met before. Aside from the advanced camera, the phone features TV-out, TouchWiz user interface, 3G support, widget support, haptic feedback and A-GPS. Camera characteristics include:

• Best-in-class digital imaging features;

Before we get to the MWC related news, we should inform you that Verizon is now offering the Samsung Omnia at $99.99 on its website. This price includes a $70 online-only discount and the customary 2-year contract. Choosing the 1-year contract will cost you $169, while the full retail price of the phone is $559.

Samsung has announced a new solar-powered full touchscreen phone named “Blue Earth”. It's made of recycled plastic, which makes it safe for the environment. Moreover, as I've already said, the "Blue Earth" charges up via the solar panel on its back. Cool, now you won't have to carry the charger with you all the time.

Apart from that we have no other details on the said handset.

In addition, they'll also be releasing a smaller version of the Samsung Instinct called Instinct Mini. The Rumor 2 should be released sometime in mid-March, while the Instinct Mini should be available on April 19th.
