Alleged AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II pictures leak, complete with a physical keyboard

Now we have some pictures in flesh and blood, and the SGH-I927 coding reveals that the device shown is indeed the almighty Samsung Galaxy S II. So, instead of Sprint, this year AT&T could have signed up for a keyboarded versions of Samsung's best and brightest Android handset.
The AT&T version is seemingly having Samsung's own Exynos dual-core chipset inside, as the pretty strong Quadrant score of 3056 reveals in the pictures below. Still, slapping a physical slide-out QWERTY on something deemed one of the thinnest smartphone out there, with its monster 4.3" Super AMOLED Plus display kind of defeats the purpose, but on the other hand it will probably fill a big gap in AT&T's Android portfolio.
How do you feel about that alleged keyboarded version of the Samsung Galaxy S II heading to AT&T?

Like the arrow keys setup. It should make using game emulators easier.

In the credit where credit is due department: Rory Revolution called this one in an earlier post. If you want to talk about getting it right.... a 4.3" qwerty keyboard. Wow. It will be a monster- in both girth and sales.

I did find it odd that both Verizon and AT&T had these Samsung Galaxy S slideout keyboard phones leaked basically at the same time.
I'm not really too sure that the Verizon one that was leaked is in the same league as this beast. It looks like both Verizon and Sprint will get the "Epic 2. 4 inch display, singlecore.
But Sprint has leaked what is most likely the SGS2 with no keyboard. So I expect the same for Verizon as well.

Ever heard of the term "If its not broke, don't fix it" AT&T?
Now we are gonna have to wait even longer to even get a good case and without the slim factor (which I was looking forward to) Its gonna be real bulking.

no, we people who want a high end offering have never heard of the Infuse 4G. no offense to the Infuse but it's no Galaxy S II.

i'll admit it looks good but whether or not this is an actual good thing remains to be seen.

Well there goes what should have been the Epic 2 for Sprint. Now the Epic 2 is a watered down Galaxy S II or if you will a slightly better Galaxy S. I wonder if the Samsung Within (gosh what an ugly name) will have a keyboard or if it's only AT&T exclusive?

i guess it depends on what the carriers want.

You sir are correct. Epic 2 should be a step up in all categories from the epic. If not it shouldn't be called EPIC 2. Sprint is gonna keep bi+

Americans are always changing ish. I think the keyboard is ok but not on this phone. the Original SGS2 looks way better.

its all a conspiracy to give us all here on PA something to talk about so they purposely change it from the original model for that reason & that reason only =/...
