      This doesn't mean that they have stopped the product.
      As you can see that I5700 was not on the Samsung mobile india website. But Samsung sells the phone in India...

        Friends, this model has been stopped. Eariler today I check in this location:
        http://www.samsung.com/in/info/contactus.html#
        (select e-mail, then select mobile phones-> mobile phone->touch screen) I5700 is not listed there, anyhow I sent mail to them and called Samsung Customer Care they said that this model stopped. Drafting this msg with sadness. Nice phone I missed to buy :(

              I am using this phone for couple of months now and i could always see people wanting to know the pros cons etc of this phone. So i have written about everything that i experienced with this phone including bugs into this blog:
              techentrepot"dot"blogspot"dot"com
              Feel free to have any clarifications through comments.
              I have also written about the OS that is bundled with this phone. I hope this helps you!!

                  spica is the best phone I ever used. I can actually make my iphone user friends jealous with this phone. I'm using samdroid 1.03 mod with eclair 2.1. and its super fast. I have setcpu on and custom profiles set so i get 800mhz when it requires. this phone is so loq priced its hilarious. love it :)

                    Curious: It's samsung s3c6410 arm 11 processor ( http://www.samsung.com/us/business/semiconductor/news/downloads/s3c6410Datasheet_0408.pdf ) which can run at 800mhz . It does perform worse than arm cortex a8 processors such as snapdragon, but at the price of galaxy spica you can't expect much better than that. A friend of mine has this phone and doesn't have any problems with performance
