After the post break we've got the other of a pair of Ozzy-Samsung vids, this time featuring the just-released Samsung Jack as a better personal assistant than those human dweebs.

OK, this is freaky...I just saw the 2nd commercial on TV. At 0:27, the map shown on the phone's screen is of an intersection about 200 yards from my house in Richardson, Texas. Is Ozzie paying me a visit? How did they pick that location for the commercial?

I an exited to see that my favourite singer is unveiling the new mobile from samsung. Meet latest contender the Samsung Solstice SGH-A887, which uses a Java-based operating system capable of handling some applications and programs without the hassle of learning how to use Windows Mobile. But is the handset worth your time and money? visit http://www.i4u.com/article26466.html fr more info on this topic.
