Well, we just had our first encounter with Samsung's new Bada-sporting Wave handset (http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/14/samsung-wave-3-3-inch-super-amoled-bluetooth-3-0-bada-but-no/). We'll say this to start... the screen is gorgeous, and the phone itself is super fast. No hesitation almost anywhere, but it's hard to make a judgment call at this point. A lot of the software seemed unfinished, and we saw a few crashes and weird behavior. Still, it's clearly a device capable of handling some pretty intense work, and a Samsung rep we spoke to wanted to emphasize its ability to multitask. We were also told that the phone has more than 512MB of RAM, which is notable for a device of this type. We're going to play with it a bit more and flesh out our impressions, but for now feast your eyes on the gallery... and we've got video uploading as we speak!
