Comeback Gravity 2 at T-Mo
T-Mobile today picked up two messaging phones from Samsung, including a rare horizontal flip version. The Comeback opens notebook-style for its QWERTY keyboard and gets a relatively large landscape LCD as a result. Much like the LG enV, when closed it has a number pad on its outer face for typical phone functions. It supports T-Mobile's 3G network and carries a 2-megapixel camera plus microSDHC storage. The Comeback is already available today but, despite not being a smartphone, costs $130 on a two-year contract.
The Gravity 2 is appropriately a sequel to the more conventional slider-style QWERTY messager and is thinner than the original. Its data access is limited to EDGE, but it still gets the 2-megapixel camera and microSDHC slot of the Comeback. T-Mobile hasn't provided pricing but says the new Gravity is due in August.
