Memoir

Is this a camera or a phone? The answer is, of course, both, although it certainly looks more like the former. Samsung's new 8 megapixel Memoir is to be carried by T-Mobile, and is the touchscreen successor to the Samsung Behold, itself a passable 5MP shooter.

In fact, apart from its sleek good looks and three million extra pixels, the T929 (Memoir) isn't much different from the T919 (Behold). It uses the same TouchWiz interface and also has a Xenon flash (not really a flash -- more of a flashlight), a 16x digital zoom (like all digital zooms, best avoided) and an autofocus lens. The camera/phone also comes with a rather splendid piece of marketing bunk:

    With the 8-megapixel Samsung Memoir, T-Mobile customers can capture and share little slices of life in all their vibrant brilliance.
