It appears that the Samsung Instinct handset will not be doing just a bit of Apple iPhone stuff, but will in fact be doing actual iPhone stuff. This is because Sprint has said it has licensed Klausner’s Visual Voicemail for use on the Samsung Instinct, which undoubtedly lends weight to Samsung’s official play for Apple’s iPhone market.
Klausner sued Apple and AT&T over this feature, with Klausner claiming violation of two patents. So now all Samsung need to do is shove on Google Maps integration, a few wiggly icons, and Cover Flow and we can say this race has truly begun.
