Trend Micro AntiVirus plus AntiSpyware 2010

Samsung UltraTouch (S8300)
Its camera is great and the screen looks amazing, but the UltraTouch is not a knockout. It's a weird mix of business looks, average apps and dodgy performance, and we just can't tell who exactly Samsung is trying to sell it to.
