There's nothing earth-shattering here but Samsung launched a new cell phone for T-Mobile today. The SGH-T819 sports a thin slider design we've seen many times before, but the SGH-T819 offers a redesigned navigation array and a chocolate brown color. The feature set is fairly standard. Inside you'll find a 1.3-megapixel camera, a digital music player, stereo Bluetooth, text and multimedia messaging, a speakerphone, a 262,000-color display, personal organizer applications, a microSD card slot, instant messaging, polyphonic ringtones, and a vibrate mode. The quadband GSM 850/900/1800/1900 handset is available for $99.99 with a two-year contract, or $219.99 if you pay full price.
