U100 has been available for a while and was announced back in Feb

I can't imagine them getting much slimmer myself although I do recall another news item about paper thin technology being used for mobile phones in the future

Does Samsung cover snapping as part of the warrenty? I looked at one in a shop the other day and it felt like you could snap it in half easily

A VERY common problem with this phone is the "board bends" and when that happens the repair shops dont even waste time trying to fix it.
You can bend the board with 2 fingers....

I agree with u one hundred percent! w880 is as slim as a phone should get. anymore is just pushing ur luck...we want a phone not a piece of paper with buttons drawn on it [addsig]

Yeah, I like my W880 but i'm always very careful with it, but any thinner and they get uncomfortable to hold.

i would never get a phone this thin. Normal thickness is fine for me. There was that phone the same size as a credit card, a samsung i hink! What next, a phone as thin as one too? And you can keep it in your credit card bit in your wallet?

the phone is very strong and durable.
I have the x820 and dropped it three times on concrete and not a single scratch.

It's not as easy to snap as you'd be lead to believe.

This is ridiculous! The w880i is the best balanced slim phone available and anything beyond that is just plain crazy.
