Apparently to be announced "really soon" what looks like official press photos of Samsung SGH-i450 have been posted online.

The i450 is a sliding S60 Symbian smartphone that interestingly, looks to copy the Nokia N95 with a two-way slide design.

One ways slides for the keyboard, and t'other for a speaker, unlike Nokia's media player control buttons.

The rumours have this pegged as a GSM Triband handset with a UTMS and HSDPA data connection.

There's a 2-megapixel camera as well as a video call camera on the front and a 2.3-inch 256k colour screen.

Why would you want the slidey speaker feature? Why for the MP3/AAC/AAC+/AAC+e/Real/WMA playing music capabilities, not to mention the FM radio receiver, of course.

Apart from that the unconfirmed spec states it's got Bluetooth, a microSD card slot and a 1GB internal memory.
