T-Mobile USA will begin offering the Samsung Memoir--a cell phone with an 8-megapixel camera--to its U.S. customers.

The Memoir will also allow users to post images taken by the camera phone directly to online photo-sharing sites.

"This is the camera phone that will make people want to leave their digital camera at home," said Bill Ogle, CMO for Samsung Mobile, in a statement. "When you combine the Memoir's imaging capabilities, customizable menus and music player, not only is it a great phone, but the entertainment possibilities are unlimited."

Pricing for the Memoir was not available.--Aaron Baar
