Itching for a touchscreen phone that’s also got a slide out keyboard? The Samsung B5310 Corby Pro sports a 2.8” inch display with 16 million colors resolution and a long list of notable features.

Quad band and 3G capable high-speed data connectivity, accelerometers for auto rotate feature, a 3.15 Megapixel camera with QVGA video, geotagging and smile detection. Stereo FM radio with RDS and a GPS receiver round out the smartphone class features in this uniquely versatile phone. The only thing lacking, really is a mobile OS to put all these awesome features to good use.
