While T-Mobile continues to roll out 3G, they keep adding devices that are 3G capable (hey, I’m not complaining). While most of these upcoming devices are phones, it’s nice to see some peripherals being added to the mix. This particular gadget is the Huawei webConnect Jet, or UMG 1691; and while it isn’t the Huawei that we are all hoping for, it does serve its purpose. This USB modem supports quad-band GSM/EDGE and dual-band UMTS/HSDPA 1700/2100 (that sounds like T-Mobile to me). Leave your thoughts in the comments!

Not too long ago we saw a leaked road map of what T-Mobile has in store for us through the holiday season. While it seemed to be an older slide, it did raise some new speculation about an old favorite (of mine at least). Below the Cliq was the much rumored Huawei Android phone that is bound for T-Mobile USA, and what do we have here but a FCC filling for what appears to be a T-Mobile USA bound Huawei Phone. Given the inclusion of the all important AWS band, it seems almost certain that this will hit the states. Also, the label drawing looks identical to that of the Pulse. Just to catch you up on the happenings of Huawei Android, I have included more information past the break. Don’t forget to leave your thoughts in the comments!

While some of you are more excited about the Cliq than others, there seems to be a all sorts of numbers, dates and speculation regarding its release. While we have information that supports a pre-order date of October 19th, Boy Genius has information to the contrary. Their source tells them that the Cliq will be available in the early weeks of October (which lines up with the September 22nd pre-order date that Orange is offering). The slide they received as “proof” clearly shows November though. Not to fret, this is clearly an older slide since the Blackberry 8520 has already been released and the road map says October 5th. For the time being, it seems like all dates associated with the Cliq are up in the air. I want you to look at that slide again, though, and notice that TMO Huawei, which certainly looks like the Pulse that we have heard about before. Also notice that the Blackberry 9700, which we have seen in T-Mobile branding, is nowhere to be seen on this road map (once again, old slide, so don’t worry). If you are having trouble reading the road map, head past the break for a larger version. I’m interested in what you think, is Motorola trying to push the Cliq out as soon as possible or do they have some time to spare? Have any other opinions about this road map? Then leave your thoughts in the comments!

Well this is the exact kind of news that brightens up the day for me when I blog! Cole Brodman, T-mobile USA CTO recently spoke to Om Malik at his blog GigaOM and had this to say about Android and T-mobile: “We are looking to launch multiple Android-based devices in the second half of this year with three partners.” Ok, that sounds good to me, anyone else have a complaint about multiple manufacturers producing Android equipment?! Didn’t think so. We can take a pretty good guess at at least two of the partners, the obvious being HTC MyTouch and Samsung, with the third possibly, in the guess of this writer, Huawei, having heard rumblings/rumors of their desire to bring Android to the United States. Aside from all the phone talk, Brodman continued to hint at Android coming to Netbooks, going so far as saying he has even seen demo versions of devices running the Android platform. Hmmmmm, interesting!!

We’ve been hearing some rumblings about Huawei bringing Android phones to T-mobile in Q3 of this year since MWC earlier this year. A trusted source has confirmed that these phones or at least a specific model is in testing right now and is still on track for a 3rd quarter release. Details were sparse, as were specs, but we did get 5mp camera, 3.5mm headset jack, cupcake (hopefully, course!) and wifi, but no mention of UMA from what the source could find. I wouldn’t count UMA out though as the most recent round of news regarding the Sapphire, shows UMA may be available for Android phones. Not to mention, the test model was blue. We’re hoping to get a blurrycam shot in the coming weeks so stay tuned for more details!

While its appearance could easily be mistaken for that “other” phone, the Huawei Android prototype pictured above made a non-working debut at Mobile World Congress. Reports coming out of Spain had an expectation for a release of the pictured device around Q3 2009. According the guys over at SlashGear, it just might be making its way over to the big magenta.
SlashGear is reporting that Huawei has signed an agreement to bring its line of Android based devices to T-mobile beginning in Q3 of this year. According to the reports, the phones will be sold under “another companies brand name” but what that means exactly or who the companies are remain anyone’s guess. We’re holding this one in the rumor category for the moment as SlashGear has yet to positively confirm that T-mobile USA is indeed one of the recipients of the new line of phones, or if our European brethern get all the glory. Stay tuned!
