It's a Samsung U600, supposedly the thinnest slider phone you can buy at 10.9mm which makes it even thinner than a Moto Razr. I paid about $360 (shipped) for it a few weeks ago, had to get it shipped from Hong Kong because they don't sell it in the US.

It's a pretty good phone with a nice 2.2" screen which is larger than most slider phone screens and a 3.2MP camera with autofocus and LED flash. It also has a nice full featured MP3 player with MicroSD slot, AD2P Stereo Bluetooth and FM radio. Battery life kinda sucks though since they had to use a thin battery.

I actually had to pay $30 for shipping (+$330 for the phone), but it was 2 day shipping from Hong Kong so it came really quick and wasn't actually that overpriced. Total the price wasn't much higher than any other online cell phone importer, but other places didn't have the color I wanted.

Looks pretty sweet. I didn't used to like the Samsung phones but the new ones that are coming out are looking SWEEET! :)

One negative though is that the plastic is relatively soft, it dents pretty badly when dropped on concrete :(
