Pay as you go / QWERTY keyboard enthusiasts rejoice -- Samsung today formally announced the Transform Ultra. The [familiar-looking](http://www.engadget.com/2011/07/24/samsung-sph-m930-to-give-boost-mobile-a-keyboard-packing-charge/) Android 2.3-packing slider is destined for the contract-free world of Boost Mobile, featuring a 1GHz processor, a 3MP rear-facing camera (plus a front-facing VGA) and the content-happy Mobile ID preloaded. The handset is a bit on the bulky side, which is to be expected with a full keyboard inside -- but all in all, not a bad looking piece of hardware, particularly for the world of pre-paid, where selection is sometimes limited. The Transform Ultra will be hitting Boost on October 7th for $230.Press release after the break.**Gallery: [Samsung Transform Ultra hands-on](http://www.engadget.com/photos/samsung-transform-ultra-hands-on/)**
