In Pictures: Slick New Cell Phones for Fall

We play with a clutch of super cell phones and give you the lowdown on each one.

Samsung u470 Juke -- Unusual Design 3 of 10

Closed, the Samsung Juke looks nothing like a cell phone: It's about the same thickness as a Palm Treo 680, but it's half the width. The unusual, stylish design certainly sets this phone apart, but whether the design will prove more than a gimmick remains to be seen. The phone is a sliver that's eminently pocketable; the clever design means the phone's display is visible even when the keypad is tucked under the display. You navigate with the five-way wheel. As on the second-generation LG Chocolate VX8550 phone, the nav wheel is mechanical, and scrolls through selections as you use your finger to move it around. Press anywhere around the periphery to activate a directional button; when appropriate, the center button serves as an Enter button.
