Samsung Exclaim M550 succeeds the Rant next month?

We like QWERTY sliders and we’re sure Sprint users do too. So, let’s quit wasting time and get right to the point – SprintGurus has acquired leaked information and a number of images of the Rant’s successor, the Samsung Exclaim M550 (previously known as the Lucello). The most significant change is the brand new two-way slider form-factor that allows for more room to fit a larger 2.6-inch QVGA display. The One Click user interface is on board as well and you will immediately notice the carousel at the lower end of the screen. Having been taunted for its faster access to social networking features, it now includes MySpace and Facebook tabs. Additional features that have also found their way to the specs list are 2-megapixel camera, A-GPS receiver, 1000mAh battery and EVDO Rev 0 connectivity.

According to the source, the new socializing gadget should be coming out on Sprint on 7 June this year, but there is still no word on the pricing.
