Samsung Rogue Coming Soon

Aug 23 2009, 10:35am CDT | by Robert Evans

If you're a Samsung fan in need of a shiny new budget handset, your day might soon be arriving. Boy Genius says that the Samsung Rogue has just finished shipping to Verizon stores all across the country. Launch is said to be imminent, although no concrete date has been given yet.

The Rogue is a slender, slick looking sliding QWERTY mobile with a touchscreen display, 3 MP camera, EV-DO Rev. A support, GPS, and Bluetooth. No pricing information is out yet, but I wouldn't expect this phone to cost more than $100, probably after a rebate. What say you, Samsung fans? Does this look like a good buy, or is it doomed to be another Glyde?
