Samsung has announced their new T509 cell phone which is by far the slimmest cell available in the US. While only 9.8mm thick the cell phone is packed with a great amount of features including, believe it or not a camera. So far the slimmest bar shaped phone from Motorola is the SLVR which is 1.7mm thicker than the T509.

You can take pictures in four resolutions (640×480, 320×240, 176×132, and 128×96) and you get a good assortment of editing options. There’s a 4X zoom, a brightness control, seven colour effects, spot focus, an ISO setting, 30 fun frames, a self-timer (3, 5, or 10 seconds), a multi-shot option, and a night mode.

You can also flip a photo upside down or produce a mirror image. Sound effects are plentiful, with three shutter sounds and options for when you activate the brightness and zoom controls, or you can have no sound. Unfortunately, there’s no silent shutter option. Finally, you can program the navigation controls and keypad buttons to act as shortcuts to various photo-editing options–a nice touch. You can watch the video here.
