It’s the final day here at the 3GSM World Congress in Barcelona, Spain, and of all the phones I’ve seen, after the jump are the five I’d like to take back home with me. That is, if they hadn’t been locked up in glass and/or under tight supervision.

Yeah, they’re ripping off the Nintendo DS, but where else will you see a phone with two touch-screen displays. Unfortunately, the D800iDS was not only under glass, but it wasn’t even turned on. Lame.

It doesn’t get any sexier than this, folks. Miss Spain finalist. Prada. LG. Touch-screen display. Part of my heart will stay at the LG Barcelona booth forever.

I arrived at 3GSM with dreams of holding the touch-screeny F700. Well, Samsung had a nice big bucket of ice waiting for me cause not only was the F700 a no-show, but they wouldn’t even let me touch the prototype.

The only company to smack me twice, Samsung’s second slider, the F520, was also locked under glass, and no matter how many times I pleaded, they just weren’t having it. The sucker remained under the glass (and turned off) during the entire show.

A full VGA screen, QWERTY keyboard, and WM6. This smartphone is oozing with style and power, but unfortunately the goons at iMate had it locked and secured, denying me a grope.
