Samsung ATIV S Revealed: Windows Phone 8, 4.8? HD Display, 1.5GHz Dual-Core Processor

Sorry Nokia, consider your thunder stolen. It hasn't yet made an appearance at Samsung's big IFA press conference inside the Berlin Tempodrom, but Samsung's first Windows Phone 8 device has just been made official thanks to a post on Microsoft's Windows Phone Blog. That device in question is the ATIV (EYY-tiv? Ah-TEEV?) S, a rather handsome new handset that sports a (sadly unspecified) 1.5GHz dual-core processor, 1GB of RAM, an 8-megapixel rear camera, and a 1.9-megapixel front-facing counterpart to boot. The spec sheet may not be the most riveting you'll ever see -- Windows Phone has never really required bleeding edge hardware -- but the move puts the pressure on Nokia to unveil something tremendous next week.
