Today FCC has approved the new Samsung T929 Memoir destined for T-Mobile. This could only mean that this 8Mpix beast is nearing its official release.

Specifications of the Memoir should include a 8Mpix camera, GPS, HSDPA, and Stereo Bluetooth, though it looks like it will lack Wi-Fi, which is really bad.

FCC has shared some information regarding the Samsung M8800 Pixon, which will obviously be heading towards AT&T, as it supports the 1900MHz and 850MHz WCDMA bands. Apart from that, this 8Mpix camearphone will have all the same features as its European counterpart.

Unlike previously thought, it seems the M8800 won't be arriving to T-Mobile anytime soon.

Samsung u440 Cleo will soon be available on Verizon Wireless as the "Strut". It is a clamshell with a full internal QWERTY keyboard, so if you like those features combined, this handset is the one for you.

According to TmoNews, these two blurry shots demonstrate the upcoming Samsung smartphone for T-Mobile U.S., called the Memoir.

Reportedly it comes with an 8Mpix camera and a touch-sensitive display with Touchwiz interface.

Unfortunately, that's all we can tell you right now. Stay tuned for more details.

Samsung's i900 Omnia is soon to reach Russia under the name of Samsung WiTu. It may sound very different, basically it's still the original Omnia.

It will be available only in the 16GB variant and will have widgets with shortcuts to popular Russian websites. The exact release date is unknown yet.

If you're looking for a really durable phone, the new Samsung Ego GT-S9402 is the one for you. It's made of a “liquid metal” composite alloy developed by Caltech, and reportedly is 3 times stronger, withstands 1.8 times the pressure, is 1.6 times more flexible, and has 3 times better vibration absorption and 100% lower thermal conductivity than titanium. In addition, the phone also offers a nice set of features, which however doen't include Wi-Fi and 3G support.

Samsung has introduced its new BizBee Line of business handsets. Sounds good to us, though we should note that in fact Samsung relaunches its i780 with Windows Mobile 6.1.

The first countries to get the phone this month are UK, Norway, Sweden, Finland, Netherlands and Spain.

Samsung Omnia has become the first DivX certified handset in the U.S. This basically means that Omnia users will be able to watch DivX videos on the phone's large 3.2" touchscreen display, regardless of whether the video file is stored in the device’s memory or memory card.

Speaking about Samsung's T-OMNIA that will be released on November 27th in South Korea, it has come to our attention that it will come with a 806MHz CPU, which is pretty impressive for a smartphone. That's just to let you know. Other features include:

• 480x800 touchscreen display;
• CPU: 806Mhz (vs. 624Mhz);
• S-DMB Digital TV tuner;
• UMTS/HSDPA 7.
