QWERTY messaging mobile phone models are becoming the “in” thing today. The latest for Bell Mobility seems to be the Samsung Vice smartphone. This handheld, as is the current trend, is targeting social networking sites like Twitter, Bebo, MySpace and Facebook.

The general layout of the Samsung Vice is that of your standard QWERTY slider phone. There is nothing yet on the pricing or availability of this one yet. We will keep you posted with news as it arrives.

The Samsung Omnia is now just coming to Canada’s CDMA carriers. Strange, is it not, given that you are already familiar with the OmniaHD? Anyway, the Windows Mobile 6.1 powered handheld will not be changing specs-wise. The latest news is also that this smartphone will be seen on Bell Mobility and Telus this month.
