Samsung Glyde (aka U940 née F700) Pops Up in Verizon's Database

Samsung's F700 Ready for Business in November with Vodafone

We went a bit moist and gooey earlier this year when we saw Samsung's F700 in Barcelona. Now the touch-screen smartphone with 3-megapixel camera and QWERTY keyboard has got a release date in Europe and a carrier: November; and Vodafone.
