The Samsung SCH-B600 is a camera phone for those who want really quality pictures, not just those blurry little shots of half-recognizable faces. In fact, it is more like a camera with a phone built into it than the other way around. It has a 10-megapixel camera with a 3x optical zoom and other features that include a satellite multimedia service, Bluetooth, an MP3 player, a business card reader, and a TV-output. The phone retails for about $950.

Before you get too excited, however, keep in mind that this camera will only be released in Korea - at least for the time being.

Thank you #1 for restating what the author wrote in the article, and of course plugging your link.
Seems like a decent idea. I'm a big fan of including other items, some of which even the blackberry-esque types are missing: Business card reader which others seem to be missing, MP3 player which other phones do have, and sattelite multimedia. With a phone this expensive, and I haven't checked the jump yet, it would be nice to have video call as an option.
But I guess all this is a moot point unless you live in South Korea.
