WiMax is still around and kickin’, believe it or not, and Clear (formerly Clearwire, formerly Xohm) is planning to expand its networks soon. As such, it only makes sense that manufacturers are gearing up for the US expansion with some WiMAX devices, right? Samsung has dropped a few snippets of information on its SWD-M100 Mondi, which the company claims is the first handheld WiMAX device for the States. Burn. Judging by the popularity, or lack thereof, of the Nokia Internet tablet:mad:, we’re not quite sure how well this slider device will do or how Sammy plans to market it. We’ll have to wait and see, but if your 3G device isn’t cutting it for your Internet addiction, this device packs a slide-out QWERTY keyboard, a D-Pad and a touchscreen. No official announcement or pricing on this device but we’re not exactly on the edge of our seats for this one.

hehe. I've seriously got to consider grabbing one of these when they're available. Mostly just to see how good it is.

It looks rather ugly... Any word on the OS/preinstalled software?

I did find this via google:

The device is potentially very interesting. If it uses a fast, Cortex-core processor, Windows Mobile 6.5 and the new Opera Mobile 9.7 browser then it will meet a lot of wish-lists, spot-on. Until we get further info though, we’re still left with the same specs as we had before:

4.3 inch touchscreen
Wimax, Wifi and Bluetooth
Dual cams ( 3M + 0.3M pixels )
Micro SD
TV out
Windows Mobile 6.1 with Opera web browser

One day we will live in a world where we don't have to WinCE.

I can just imagine the hardware engineers after all their work going to the platform meeting: "You want to put *what* on it?!"
