It certainly won’t win any innovation awards, but the Samsung Muse does everything it needs to do and it seems to do it well. That’s good news for Alltel Wireless customers who want a decent music phone without having to break the bank in the process.

Featuring a classic slim clamshell design, the Samsung Muse comes with dedicated touch-sensitive music controls underneath the outer display and these controls are almost hidden under the wonderfully glossy finish. I hope that these light up when in use. If MP3-listening isn’t your thing, the Muse also has a free trial of 20 XM Radio stations.

Other highlights include a 2 megapixel camera, stereo Bluetooth, microSD slot, GPS-capable with Axcess Mobile Guide preloaded, and high-speed EVDO. Pick one up for $90 when you sign a two-year service agreement.
