Okay, this one’s a complete and very welcome surprise — some extremely blurry pictures and a quick video of what appears to be a smaller Motorola portrait QWERTY Android slider for Verizon just popped up on the Chinese Hiapk forums — and yes, it’s got the glowing red Droid eye.

Well, that didn’t take long, did it? Just earlier today we were talking about how the Intercept was starting to make its way into bits and pieces of Sprint’s system , but now, the announcement’s here and it’s the real deal. Most notably, the Android-powered landscape QWERTY slider will go to market for under $100 (by a penny, anyway) on contract after rebate, making it a value-oriented alternative for the monsters like the EVO 4G and Epic 4G that Sprint is pushing on the high end.

In case you needed any more evidence that Samsung’s Epic 4G for Sprint is probably going to be awesome, you might take a gander at the competitive analysis they’ve prepared against the iPhone 4 , Droid Incredible , and Droid X as an ego-boosting checklist for reps prepping to sell the phone in the coming weeks.

Sprint lines up Epic 4G against the competition, likes its chances
The mechanism that opens and closes the articulated display is pretty neat — but otherwise, there isn’t much from Negri Electronics ‘ video of its mysteriously-obtained Nokia prototype that is likely to raise many eyebrows. The phone — labeled “C0″ but more likely a member of the Nseries or Eseries — gets poked and prodded over the course of four-odd minutes, revealing a number of ports protected with plastic flaps (micro HDMI included, it seems) along with a good, close look at that expansive QWERTY keyboard. Performance looks reasonable but not mind-blowing — and we don’t want to pass judgment on a software build that’s likely got months of work left before retail — so this could be a reasonable option for N97 and N97 Mini owners looking for an upgrade with a capacitive display and some ultra-mild UI rework.

That rumored Galaxy S Pro is very real and very official for Sprint this evening, ‘cept it’s not actually called the Galaxy S Pro — instead, it’ll be known as the Epic 4G when it comes to market “in the coming months.” Like the EVO 4G before it, the Epic 4G sort of blows everything out of the water on paper: 4-inch Super AMOLED display, 5 megapixel primary camera with LED flash and 720p video recording paired with a VGA front-facing cam for video calls, 802.11b/g/n WiFi, six-axis accelerometer, and a 1GHz Hummingbird core. Oh, and of course let’s not forget those EV-DO Rev

We told you, didn’t we ? Whether you want to call this the N98, the N900’s successor, or the N8 plus QWERTY, what you’re looking at above is potentially the visage of Nokia’s next smartphone.

We’ve just been sent a mother lode of shots of RIM’s upcoming BlackBerry 9800 — a phone whose market name is still unknown — but whether it’s called the Bold, the Torch, or something else altogether, we think we’re looking at near-final hardware here. The software is identified as version 0.9, but you can clearly tell from the UI that it’s running BlackBerry 6 with an ever-so-slightly refined look and subtle 3D elements missing from prior releases

Nothing new here, but at this point, Motorola’s delicious duo of fresh Android phones for Verizon is leaking like… well, like a leaky faucet, we suppose. We’ve already got the full scoop on the keyboardless 4.3-inch Droid X — a beast ready to take on sworn enemies from HTC like the EVO 4G and the Droid Incredible — and we’ve seen plenty of details on the so-called Droid 2 , too

The Moment just got a whole lot less interesting, didn’t it? What you’re looking at is allegedly Samsung’s Galaxy S Pro for Sprint, a potential blockbuster of a phone that’s said to have WiMAX support and a front-facing cam — basically, the QWERTY answer to the EVO 4G (and this one’s presumably got a Super AMOLED display, to boot)

Some two years after its release, there are still plenty of people who’ll swear up and down that the E71 is the finest phone Nokia has ever produced — and for good reason.
