I have always loved Samsung cellphones but one thing that I missed was expandability. All of them come with simple operating system (like most of the phones out there), and you can do on it pretty much same thing over and over again.
Personally, I like phones on which you can install a bunch of different applications, expand the features, etc. While some of these phones can run special Java based applications, only Nokia got it right the first time they switched their cellphones to Symbian Operating System. Ever since, they stuck with it and Symbian has proven itself worthy.
Now, Samsung is realizing the same thing, and I must say, the L870 is a beauty as well! Check this out:
Pre-installed apps: Quick Office document viewer, WebKit-based S60 browser, music and video player, push-email support, and other standard S60 apps. Expandable to your heart’s content as any other Symbian phone out there.

This morning there’s "something in the air" and it ain’t a Mac Book! If you happen to have any S60 (Symbian) based Nokia device (most of Nokias), then you’re in luck. Joiku just announced an awesome app called JoikuSpot which lets you make your Nokia into a WiFi Hotspot.
JoikuSpot software is installed directly to the phone. When switched on, laptops and ipods can establish instant and fast wireless internet connection via smartphone’s JoikuSpot access point using phone’s own 3G Internet connection.
Multiple devices can connect to JoikuSpot in parallel and seamlessly share the same 3G Internet connection. JoikuSpot acts thus as an Internet gateway to external WLAN devices.
Finally you get to use that 3G, on your N95, and put it to a good use. Now your iPhone or iPod touch can have fast Internet wherever you are
N95 just became hotter than it already is. If you’re shopping for a new cell phone, with 3G mind you, then here’s one more recommendation for you.

Nokia’s N89 is the new super hot 3G phone out there and you can get it unlocked for use with any GSM provider (read AT&T, Tmobile, etc.) for $629 on this site. Sports 5MP camera, Xenon Flash, GPS, Wifi, Bluetooth, FM Tuner, Headphone jack, microSD card slot and 2.4" auto rotating display. It has 100MB memory to make all apps run snappy.
Make sure that you have the latest firmware on the phone before installing the JoikuSpot: Nokia Software Updater.
