Back in February, we all had high hopes that the Linux-based Samsung i800 would be a real winner when it launched on Orange this fall. Unfortunately, the i900 is likely to be out and about before the i800 can even have a proper funeral. According to Edelman, Orange’s PR firm, the “i800 has been withdrawn in order to… prepare a more competitive Linux mobile.” In all honesty, we don’t suspect that many folks will miss it, but those holding out on picking up a new cellie can safely move on to courting other handsets.
