Leaked: Samsung Mondi with 4G WiMAX, 4.3 inch touchscreen

samsung_swd-m100_mondiThe Samsung SWD-M100 WiMAX MID that was paraded around at the Mobile World Conference was accidentally named earlier today in a post via Samsung’s RSS feed.

The now named Samsung Mondi features a 4.3 inch touchscreen, slide out QWERTY, and — brace yourself — 4G WiMAX via the Clear network (US only, booo!).

Though we don’t know of any of the other specs of the Mondi, we do know that it will be running WinMo, has two cameras (front/back 0.3 and 3 MP respectively), bluetooth, WiFi, the Opera browser, and a microSD slot.

Is Microsoft building a Tegra-based smartphone?

According to some rumours started by the Inquirer today (ignore their linked ‘video proof’ as it’s clearly a joke), Microsoft is in the final stages of building a phone – the first of its own brand – that will rely on performance to drive sales. They’re allegedly developing a phone that uses one of NVIDIA’s Tegra processors. This processor (likely the APX 2500 chip) would theoretically give the Microsoft device 720p video playback and advanced 3D visuals that no other smartphone on the market has, to date.
