Amazon is cutting $100 off the price of the Samsung Moment. The Android powered device will now cost you $79.99 through the online retailer, with a 2 year contract. At Sprint, the same handset will set you back $179.99 on contract. Amazon's deal even beats Best Buy by $20. What you get for $79.99 is a 3.2 inch AMOLED toiuchscreen with resolution of 320 X480 pixels and 16 million colors (can you name all of them?). The device is equipped with a 3.2MP camera with video capture, a side sliding full QWERTY keyboard, Wi-Fi and a zippy 800MHz processor that helps Android OS 1.5 run quickly. Wait. Back it up. Android 1.5? Yup. Hopefully an upgrade to 2.0 will be coming sooner than later, but in the meantime you can be satisfied with the knowledge that for the Moment, you paid only $79 for a handset that some are still paying $100 more for.
