The Bottom Line	The Samsung SGH-G800 does a lot of things right, but a few underwhelming features left us wanting more.	The Samsung Eternity succeeds as a multimedia device, but without Wi-Fi and full e-mail support, it stops well short of being a business-friendly device.	With its eco-friendly design and spiffy solar panels, the Samsung Blue Earth is more than just a gimmick; it's also an appealing cell phone with character.	You won't mistake it for a smartphone, but the Samsung Soul is nonetheless an attractive and well-designed multimedia phone.	The Duet D8 offers support for two SIM cards, but its touch screen and keyboard result in a frustrating user experience.
