Samsung is prepping the SCH-W880, a new cell phone with an integrated 12 megapixel digicam with 3x optical zoom. Unfortunately, it's for South-Korea only.

What's impressive here is that extending 3x optical zoom -- something carried over from the SCH-B600 -- and dedicated camera controls like a mode dial, shutter and zoom, and big 3.3-inch WVGA AMOLED display. Rounding out the specs are HD (720p presumably) video, HSDPA data, WiFi, GPS, Bluetooth, microSD slot, and DMB mobile television; that latter spec making this Korea-only whenever it does launch.
