Samsung's i7500 phone turns up in white

Samsung's first effort at an Android-based mobile phone might not have debuted in the UK, but that hasn't stopped the i7500 Galaxy appearing in white ahead of the launch.
The specs of the phone remain the same, meaning we're sadly not seeing the i5700 Galaxy Lite phone Samsung seems to be releasing soon.
But that does mean if you're giddy with excitement over Samsung and Google joining forces but not a fan of black (and we all know it's about the graphite or mocha or whatever other fancy colours manufacturers are after these days) then this picture should make your day a whole lot better.
More than a Hero
Don't forget, we're seeing a phone with a 5MP camera (with flash), a 3.5mm jack and super-thin shell in the Samsung i7500 Galaxy, which still out specs the HTC Hero.
The i7500 should be debuting in the UK any day now - O2 confirmed to us a few weeks ago it would be stocking it around the beginning of August - so we're just sitting here flicking peanuts at one another until that day finally dawns.
T-Mobile G2 Touch available today


T-Mobile will release the HTC Hero today (re-branded as the G2 Touch) online, and in stores over the coming weeks.
The information was broken via the company's official Twitter account, which confirmed the phone would make it into the shops by the promised August deadline.
Orange was the first network to carry the HTC Hero, releasing it last week, but T-Mobile has been hot on its heels.
Branding snafu
This news follows the earlier decision to rename the G1 Touch (as the Hero was going to be rebranded, according to the press release) to the G2 Touch, possibly as it realised the first G1 was already a touchscreen phone, and people were likely to get very confused between the two in the shops.
The phone is T-Mobile's second Android handset, and will be available from £40 per month on the network's Flext tariff.
So if you despise Orange for some reason and want to go all T-Mobile-tastic with the new HTC Hero, check out the G2 Touch. Don't worry, it is the same phone underneath.
