Samsung E848 is a 0.42-inch thin, 2-megapixel camera phone. The reason that this phone is linked with the Beijing Olympics next year is that it will sport the Beijing Olympics logo. And yes, its reflective side may act as a mirror, probably the best function this phone may have. To add, Samsung has 3 phones line up for the Games.

I predict that a lot of gadgets are trying their best to associate with the Olympics. Ya, trying.
