Samsung’s Armani-like F480 won’t be known simply as the F480 when it floods the market; that’d be far too ordinary, apparently, so it’s been assigned “Tocco,” which it turns out is Italian for “Touch.” That’s an eminently appropriate name for a phone that relies this heavily on finger action thanks to the introduction of Samsung’s all-new TouchWiz UI concept, and with 7.2Mbps HSDPA on board, there’ll be plenty of touch-controlled browser use, we envision. Pricing apparently has yet to be set, but we’re pretty sure Italian names command some sort of premium over garden-variety letters and numbers.

Apparently satisfied enough with its first model to take another stab at the Japanese market, Softbank MVNO Disney Mobile is trotting out another Sharp-sourced model, the DM002SH. The Cinderella-themed flip is targeted squarely at the fairer sex, coming reasonably well-equipped with wide QVGA resolution on its 2.6-inch primary display, 2 megapixel camera, microSD slot, an OLED external display, and one-seg TV tuner. As far as we can tell, there’s also precisely zero shortage of Cinderella media — movies, ringtones, and the like — so owners really need only to pick up the crystal slippers to complete the package. It’ll be available starting June 7 in silver, pink, and gold, just like the original DM001SH.
