Music phones are evolving faster than Mr. Spock in Star Trek III. The latest mutant branch of the cell family tree is the new "Ultra Music" phone from Samsung. Few details were available today (we'll know more tomorrow), but on one side it's a phone with a 2-inch LCD, and on the flip side it's an MP3 player with a smaller LCD. Unfortunately, the phone was under glass, making it virtually impossible to photograph or handle (though we tried, as you can see), but we were told the bar phone has 1 GB of internal memory and a microSD flash memory slot and Bluetooth stereo for wireless listening and talking. It's due sometime this year from a carrier to be announced.
