Why is tmobile trying their BEST to be the worst? I mean c’mon son!! Who in the h e double hockey sticks chooses the phones for tmobile. I think they have a little teenage monkey in the cage and distract the monkey with bright lights!! I mean come on. They give us the mt3g while sprnt gets the hero! I’ve been with tmobile for 7 yrs and I feel disrespected by the products they have delivered or giving us. Right out the box the other carriers are killing tmobile.they are catering to the non computer friendly,teenage,elderly crowsd. What about the men in women that love to have the hotest devices with hottest features. I don’t give a damn about social networks ie cliq. They’re buolding there whole fan base around something most adults don’t care about. We want power and functionaility. I have tmobile and I have the g1. I had the mt3g for about 2 hours and returned it right back to tmobile. Its the the same bloody phone as the g1 minus the keyboard.tmobile usa is behind and its because the tmobile usa consumers are ok with bs. Why is that oversea that get the best phones and newer techs first? Tmbile doesn’t want to be the best the just want to exist.I have a 2 yr contract with tmo and I’m canceling to get the either the droid or hero I’m still deciding. When tmobile GROWS up I might return!!!!

Paul S, your MT3G does not have 288mb ram, it would be the only MT3G with 288mb ram, and it would also be worth a s***, and nobody with a MT3G has a phone thats worth a s***. I bought the MT3G after being impressed by the magic, didnt realize tmobile didnt want to release such a great phone just yet. Thats why they reduced the mb to that of the lowly G1. If the MT3G had 288mg ram, they wouldnt be able to impress us (read ‘sell us’) with new phones. Looks like there is now a limited edition mytouch with 288mb, which I doubt you received. Believe you me it is a TOUGH pill to swallow, but face the facts, the MT3G is a pretty G1.

I just received my Pre-Ordered Cliq today. Replaces my “pioneering” G1 that I pre-ordered in Sept. 2008. I very much like the keyboard better than the G1. I only hope that I get the 1.6 update soon. I’m guessing they built the Cliq before the Donut 1.6 update…
I cringe that Verizon and Sprint will be getting “superior” android phones…

@ Paul
Perhaps I’m missing something too or looking at the wrong number? Mine is showing 295M, and its just a stock version as well.
I do wish they would cater more to us, however. It gets old waiting on new phones only to find t-mo went once again with a mediocre level of capability.

“I don’t know if its coincidental or completely random that it drops on the day of the Cliq pre-order but I’m going to say it’s likely the former.”

What is wrong with the writers on this site? “Coincidental” and “completely random” mean the same thing.

I don’t get it!, what is new about the MTLE besides the RAM it should have? Also if you know half a thing about hardware…the processor’s speed and the clock’s frequency are two very different things, for what we know the clock speed of the droid is better than the previous android devices(about 50% i belive i heard), but the actual speed improvement is not a juicy number(about 30% i belive i heard). 30% might seem a lot, i know, but you can live without it. These phones are ok, and if you are looking to get the cliq just make sure that your social networks are not a mess already.

Beastly,

Expect a mega marketing blitz for Droid. They are pushing this hard- WITH Google. It should be released around Thanksgiving or earlier, but if it follows the N900 path, it will be delayed a month ;)

“Sholes” and Moment will be the only Android phones that will support full Flash because they have faster CPU’s and active DSPs. Cliq, G1 and other 7201 devices will stream Flash video full-screen (not in page), but will not play heavy Flash game content. Read the Adobe discussions for more info.

Regardless, the Sholes will be pushed by Verizon and Google to the point of making Tmo has-been with Android. Doubt if you want, but Sholes will kick the Tmo line-ups butt. If Verizon drops their monthly fees down as rumored- Tmo is in some hurt.

@ grrr

I disagree, with alot of what you are saying. T-mobile made the decision to take the lesser of the available my-touch’s( the one with less ram) they choose to pass on the hero( which has been out awhile now), and the list goes on. The people at t-mobile usa are just not very talented, thats what it boils down too.

@dan,
Actually, the Cliq is available now (I’ve actually talked to some people who are using it, and played with it myself) and the “Droid” isn’t even the official name for the phone Verizon will be releasing.
