Bet you can't pronounce this: Soul^b

Damian Koh | May 30, 2008

I've had embarrassing moments when I've pronounced words incorrectly. Needless to say, I saw it coming when I joked that the latest Samsung candy bar--the Soul^b--is called "soap" with a slight hint of "b" at the end. According to the Korea chaebol, the Soul^b is pronounced as "soul bi". "Soulb" is wrong. So are "soul bar", "soul to the power of b" and "soul bee". Frankly, if you really can't be bothered, just call it the U800.

as the name suggest "don't judge the book by its cover" but how ugly is this? while people are craving for iphone-ish aesthetics plus useable functionality, i'll just wait for the next Samsung phone perhaps...

Will it ever be available in Asia? Specifically in the Philippines? I emailed Samsung about the availability of this product, but the representative told me it hasn't decided yet whether to make U800 for sale here..
