The new Samsung Continuum, a Galaxy S smartphone from Verizon Wireless allows you to see up-to-the-minute news, sports, finance info and your social networking updates no matter what you’re doing on the phone. It is the world’s first smartphone designed with a dedicated 1.8in Super AMOLED ticker display that is positioned below the main 3.4in Super AMOLED touchscreen. Using a built in grip sensor, the ticker display automatically lights up to show real-time weather, social networking services (SMS), message, IM and e-mail notification updates when the user touches the bottom sides of the device. The Continuum is powered by Android 2.1 on a 1GHz Hummingbird Application Processor and will be available for order starting Nov. 11 in Verizon Wireless Communications Stores and online at www.verizonwireless.com for $199.99 after a $100 mail-in rebate with a new two-year customer agreement and data package.
