What you see above is the first ever Open Market Handset compliant cellphone from Samsung entitled the Mpower 699.

Asyou can see, the phone is nothing special featuring a simple slide out keypad and other basic features but the real gem is the included U-RIM slot that allows for use on any Indian CDMA carrier and the fact that it retails for about $145.

Luckily, for those of you who don’t like the look of this particular handset, Samsung hopes to release an additional 5 Open Market Handset compliant phones in India by next year.
