2009 is going to be the year of Android for sure. Today Samsung has announced its plans on releasing a new Android-based phone on both Sprint Nextel and T-Mobile US networks in Q2 next year.

Apparently, the upcoming handset will be a hybrid version of the Samsung Omnia and Instinct, or in other words, a yet another full-screen handset, the likes of which are very popular nowadays.

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.
