Here’s the Venus. Let’s forgot about the connotation of the name because there’s nothing girly about this phone. I’m pretty sure I like it more than the Voyager.

Enjoy the pics in the mean time.

Nice to see Samsung’s sliding gem get a little more real courtesy of the fine peeps at Phonearena. We first saw this guy back in March of this year at CeBIT and have been loving it ever since, cause, what’s not to love, right? QWERTY goodness, giant touch screen, and we’ll be able to get it over here, not just in GSM-land or on Vodafone.

Yesterday UPS dropped it off, and I’ve been playing with it constantly ever since. It is a powerful thing, ambitious in that it combines much of what we like about both the iPhone and the BlackBerry into a single compact system. But it has flaws that make it hard for me to give the highest marks, especially with an after-rebate price tag of $300.
