Samsung P260: another UMA phone in the mix

There’s no word on which carrier will pick up the Samsung P260, but I reckon T-Mobile is the most likely candidate. Unwired View shares the info on this little slider which is a GSM / EDGE unit with integrated WiFi and UMA support for call transition. If T-Mo does get it, those Hotspot@Home customers will have another choice over the basic UMA phones and get a few more features like a more standard 2-megapixel camera, a microSD slot and a MP3/MPEG-4 player.

I’m seeing more and more GSM phones with WiFi/UMA support and it makes me wonder: is T-Mobile going to be the only UMA game in town on the GSM side or is there a secret AT&T / Apple plan in the works? Now that would be an exciting "one more thing" surprise….
