Many sites stated that Samsung is willing to sell an Android device at the end of the year. But we just got some infos from a German Website that Samsung will sell its first Android powered device in Germany in June. Its called the i7500 and comes with all the needed stuff:

GPS

WIFI

3g3,5mm Headphone Jack

5MP Builtin Cam + Flashlight

320 x 480 pixel AMOLED touchscreen

tri-band 7.2Mbps HSDPA (900/1700/2100MHz)

8GB internal storage (MicroSD expansion for up to 32GB more)

It will be very thin with 11,9mm and covered by a nice looking metal surface

Thanks samsung, this will be the first real good device with ALL that stuff that matters.

Since today, the second Android handset is available in Germany. Its called the HTC-Magic and is exclusivly available from Vodafone Stores. The new devices does not offer the builtin keyboard but its replaced with a on screen keyboard like the iphone has. It has GPS, WIFI , 3G and all the other fancy stuff. But it seems it will also do not have the standard 3,5mm headphone jack. So please HTC and/or Vodafone,T-Mobile, offer an Android powered mobile with a standard headphone jack.

We just found an interesting article about the Computex Show 2009 in Taipeh (starts June, 2nd) where MSI is trying to show the an Android powered Netbook for consumers. This would be the first netbook which runs Android and not just a “hack” like the ones before. Which of course are also cool, but don`t bring any value to the end customers. Hopefully this will be the start of a new generation of netbooks so that HP, Asus and Dell etc. will follow these road to the future of mobile applications.
