MetroPCS has been playing catch-up with their phone line up, initially by offering their first smartphone, and now a touchscreen phone with a full HTML browser. It has a 3.2 inch WQVGA display, a virtual QWERTY keyboard, and a 2MP camera with video capture so you can record the shock on your friends' faces when you tell them that this cool phone came from MetroPCS. Other features include a widget based UI (we guess it is TouchWiz) that allows for quick drag and touch opening of applications, MP3 music player, Stereo Bluetooth and 150MB in memory that can be expanded by using the microSD slot. The Samsung Finesse costs $349 with shipping expected in 2 to 3 weeks. Similar to Alltel with their identical Delve phone, MetroPCs is offering the Mission Impossible trilogy on a microSD card for free while supplies last, to those who buy the Finesse and activate it on their network. With all of this new cool phones offered by the carrier, a whole new breed of fanboy might be born.
