We’re still a little puzzled as to who exactly the WiMAX-enabled Samsung Mondi MID is for. But we’re about to find out, because it’s now on sale for $450 directly from Samsung, according to Sidecut Reports. Next week, you’ll also be able to buy one at Best Buy and at Clear stores in all current Clearwire markets–meaning Baltimore, Atlanta, Las Vegas, and Portland (Oregon).
The Samsung Mondi is one of those franken-PDAs, like the Nokia N810 WiMAX but not like the HTC Advantage (which is also a phone). The Mondi has a 4.3-inch LCD touch screen and runs Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional. It’s also packed with radios, including WiMAX, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and GPS, and there’s an HDMI out for watching videos on a large TV.
The Mondi is also your only choice for a WiMAX device aside from modems, since Nokia canned the N810 WiMAX within months of its introduction.
