Last year the Samsung Galaxy S devices were a pretty big deal. These phones all had great Super AMOLED screens that outshined pretty much everything else in terms of contrast and power consumption. While the Samsung Infuse 4G doesn’t include Samsung’s “Galaxy S” branding anywhere, it certainly feels like part of that family.

Windows Phone 7 Mango to Offer Linked Inbox Option
Neowin has found a leaked screenshot of a new feature we haven’t heard about yet, that’s supposedly (and hopefully) going to appear in this fall’s “Mango” update to Windows Phone 7.

Here’s our video unboxing of the new AT&T Samsung Infuse 4G. The box is designed to mainly match AT&T’s branding and since the device is so big, it takes up the full height underneath the top flap. Inside the box are the usual suspects; Micro USB cable, charger, headphones, etc., but you also get a big Micro USB to HDMI adapter so that you can plug the Infuse 4G into an HD TV. The adapter …
