Samsung Innov8 Up Close

At the E for All Expo, Samsung showcased gaming on its new flagship smartphone--at least, it's a flagship phone in markets outside of the U.S. The hook for E for All, an entertainment show in Los Angeles over the weekend: the phone is the official one of the World Cyber Games, an event whose finals were being staged at the expo. But the other hook is, as a Symbian S60 3rd edition-based smartphone, the i8510 (as the Innov8 is also called) can play a host of Java-based mobile games--and many were on display at the show.
