Quiet honestly, I doubt that.

And I never said they were draging their feet. What I did say though is that it is due in Fall and, look at that, its Fall! I never said I want it NOW either. I just said I wanted to have a little status update.

And keng has a point. Samsung is making firmware for multiple platforms. While some could argue the same for enTourage with the Pocket eDGe, I'm pretty sure they have the same (internal) hardware, and therefore the same software. They are still technically developing for 1 platform, whereas Samsung has to develop for multiple radios - something that enTourage doesn't have to worry about - and therefore multiple chipsets. They also have to worry about different drivers for different hardware.
