Samsung Admire is gearing up to be the first Gingerbread offering for Cellular South

Back last month, we reported that the Samsung Admire would be the device to replace the aging LG Optimus M over on MetroPCS, but it now appears as if it’ll be headed to regional carrier Cellular South as well.

Not only is the handset getting its own landing page right now, but it’s getting the prestigious title of being the carrier’s very first Android 2.3 Gingerbread powered smartphone. However, it specs remain to be similar to the version that MetoPCS will be getting, which is deemed as a mid-range handset. Meaning, it’ll feature a 3.5” touchscreen, 3.2-megapixel camera, Wi-Fi, GPS, Bluetooth, and a microSD card slot.

Even though it’s being featured on Cellular South’s web site, there still is no word regarding its pricing or availability, but it wouldn’t surprise us to see it follow accordingly to the version that MetroPCS will be getting, which is rumored to launch sometime between now and September.
