Overview
The Samsung i505 was a unique entry in the mobile phone market, primarily due to its use of the Palm OS on a device designed by Samsung, which was announced in the first quarter of 2004. However, despite the anticipation, the model was eventually canceled and never made it to commercial production. Sitting at the intersection of early smartphone technology and personal digital assistants, the Samsung i505 was set to bring together Samsung's hardware expertise and Palm's software capabilities in a compact form factor.
