If you've been following the Samsung Blog, you'll know that Samsung and Play Soccer South Africa launched the NextHero campaign a few weeks ago. The intention behind this campaign is to provide funding to allow young soccer players to pursue stardom. Samsung plays a huge role in this sponsorship.

For every J700 sold, a portion of the sale will go towards to funding the growth of young soccer stars. The J700 itself is an awesome phone. With a 1.3 Mega Pixel camera, MP3 and video player, and Bluetooth, the J700 has a great feature set in a sturdy slider format. We're currently using one at the office and its proven to be extremely user-friendly.

Samsung have also introduced a great competition to go hand-in-hand with this campaign. Buy a J700 and you'll also stand a chance to win one of four trips to London to see Samsung’s greatest soccer hero, Didier Drogba, play a match for Chelsea against arch rivals, Arsenal on 30th November 2008. This will definitely be an experience of a lifetime. If you need to purchase a phone, make sure its the J700! Go to the NextHero Competition page for more details.
