eXpansys on its Insider blog has leaked some information which I am sure Samsung wouldn’t want everyone of us know, at least for now. Three phones are expected to add in the Samsung portfolio. First is the B2100, which is said to be a follow up of M110 phone. It will also be a rugged phone like B2700 carrying an IP54 certification but will drop some features like 3G, flash and pedometer.

Next up is Louve (or Louvre?). It will be a WinMo 6.1 handset with looks resembling to TyTN II and having a 3.2 megapixel camera, widgetized interface and accelerometer.

Lastly, is Pivot which is the most interesting phone in this leak. This baby is going to have Windows Mobile 6.5, a 5MP cam with LED flash, QWERTY keypad, GPS, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi etc.
