Looks like selling T-Mobile products before they launch is all the rage these days with yet another device showing up on eBay a full two weeks before an expected launch. With the T-Mobile G-Slate yet to be announced you can be the proud owner of the very first model to hit the streets for the low low price of $1200 right away or start your bid at $800. With a two year contract price … [read full article]
We’re going to chalk this one right up in the rumor category from the start but according to JR Raphael of ComputerWorld.com the T-Mobile G2 is set to receive an update to Android 2.3 Gingerbread by “summer.” What summer means exactly is anyones guess but JR confirms via a “trusty Android Power reader” and an HTC Representative that things are on schedule for a summer release. There you go, G2, Gingerbread, Summer. ComputerWorld
The United States Senate has announced that hearings will be held by the Senate Judiciary committee into the AT&T / T-Mobile merger to determine if consumer competition would be reduced in light of the merger. It’s fine and good to see that the Senate is taking up the proposed merger however the same situation occurred in the very same committee with the Comcast-NBC merger and that was ultimately approved so I’d keep any expectations in check. … [read full article]
This is just one of those things I enjoy posting because of how ridiculous it is that someone would pay $999 for a phone coming out in less than 10 days. Furthermore this individual did nothing to block the IMEI and identifying information of the device in the pictures so if s/he is an employee and selling this device, someone better make that $999 last for a while! Any takers? Didn’t think so. Do yourself a favor … [read full article]
April 20th is looking to be quite the day for T-Mobile fans as T-Mobile has announced both the availability of the G2X this morning along with…drum roll please…the Sidekick 4G. Dropping April 20th in stores and online the Sidekick 4G will cost $99.99 after a $50 mail in rebate. Turns out that Radio Shack tweet was on the money after all. Sidekick fans better start your calendar countdowns! @tmobile
Update: For those of you asking, T-Mobile has said that the non-contract price of the G2X is $499.99. Well would you look at that, T-Mobile went and made the T-Mobile G2X release date official right on the heels of a rumor claiming the phone would launch April 15th. As it turns out both April 15th AND April 20th were the correct launch days as our early information had pointed to a release on April … [read full article]
In a rather unusual course of action, T-Mobile has apparently decided to discount the retail prices of the Motorola CHARM and the T-Mobile MyTouch 3G with 3.5mm Jack. The Motorola CHARM has been discounted from $269.99 to $199.99, and the T-Mobile MyTouch 3G with 3.5mm Jack has been discounted from $399.99 to $299.99. The discount applies to all colors that the devices are available in. Though we didn’t report it before, T-Mobile has done this three … [read full article]
Well, this is interesting! Back at Mobile World Congress, LG stated that the LG Optimus Pad (known in the USA as the T-Mobile G-Slate) would not have a glasses-free 3D display, and instead it would require a separately sold pair of 3D glasses to properly watch 3D content on the tablet. For the record, this pair of glasses will be the famed Red and Blue variant you are all so familiar with. Well, it seems that … [read full article]
While we’ll ignore for a moment the fact that T-Mobile has yet to release any sort of information regarding a release date for the T-Mobile G2X new information pinpoints to a April 15th launch. That’s 5 days ahead of our own timeframe of April 20th which we’ve been working with for a while now. Anyone have any objections to the G2X releasing a little early? Didn’t think so. Noticeably absent here is the release date … [read full article]
Right on schedule T-Mobile has launched the Nokia Astound for $79.99 for a 2 year contract. With a 3.5″ screen, 8 megapixel camera and on board Symbian OS the Astound is a definite change of pace from the recent onslaught of Android devices we’ve been seeing. We’ll have a full review up on the Astound soon but first impressions were favorable if unimpressive. Symbian is at the point where what it does, it does very … [read full article]
