The new smartphone, which is due to go on sale worldwide in the fourth quarter, also has a 5-megapixel autofocus digital camera onboard with video recording capability. It has only 512MB of storage so users will have to buy MicroSD cards to increase the storage space for video, photos, music and other large files. Liquid has a MicroSD slot that supports cards with up to 32GB of storage, a MiniUSB slot, and a 3.5mm audio jack.

The onboard camera will also tag photos with location information from the built-in GPS receiver, so people know where and when they snapped a shot.

I'm no smart phone fanatic, but with a camera that nice that just happens to be a phone too? 

The smartphone offers a range of wireless signals, including GSM, EDGE and Radio HSUPA/HSDPA (High Speed uplink/downlink Packet Access) in addition to 802.11b/g WiFi for Internet browsing and Bluetooth for wireless connections to other devices.

It does sound nice IMO.

Nobody picked up on the post I made about Walmart moving into the cell data plans nationally. But in the various articles I read about it, the big complaint in the comment streams was that there wasn't an android phone available. I thought that was sorta significant ...Huns at the gate sorta thing.
