Set up to help web developers create more function-rich, user friendly and relevant applications, the initiative is designed to drive the use of data services on mobile.
Noah goes hands-on with the newest T-Mobile music phone, the Nokia XpressMusic 5610. It's a slider phone with a focus on music: 3.2MP camera with autofocus, VGA video capture, and mobile Email and IM clients? Good. 2.5mm headphone jack? Not as good. Check it out ... Noah's got the iPhone 3G and the old iPhone - the old one's jailbroken, unlocked, and running on T-Mobile. Side by side you can see how the unlocked version works just like the new one (minus 3G). All hail the iPhone-dev team! Also, check out the T-Zones hack for T-Mobile users! Unboxing the brand-new Sidekick - the T-Mobile Sidekick 2008. It's not called the "Gekko" after all, but it does feature interchangeable shells that let you customize the look. This new Sidekick also has a 2MP camera with video capture, a 3.5mm headphone jack, and lots more worth checking out. Noah continues looking at the new iPhone 3G. In this video it's IMing using the AIM app, which is free and works on old iPhones and iPod Touches, too. Also, how to send and receive SMSs without paying AT&T for a messaging plan! Part one of our extensive coverage of Apple's new iPhone 3G. Noah brings you an unboxing, hands-on, and a comparison with the original iPhone. ROKR you like a Hurricane. Moto's new ROKR E8 features a morphing keypad, touch sensitive nav wheel, and 2MP camera. It's a T-Mobile exclusive. I have a tip that is great for people with smart phones that are either only edge capable or on an edge only network. Using Opera Mini browser on my Nokia E71 and N95 on T-mobiles network I can browse the web faster than using AT&T or Sprints 3G networks, I've tested it. The pages load about 3 seconds faster than on the 3G networks. I have found that this is not well known among T-mobile users that I know. The HTC Dream has received FCC approval, and that quiet rumbling you hear is the sound of T-Mobile subscribers doing their happy dance across the land. HTC model "DREA100" is ready to go and appears to pack the following goodies along with its much-ballyhooed Android operating system:
T-Mobile ready 3G: GSM/GPRS/EDGE 850/1900 and WCDMA 1700 bands
802.11 b/g WiFi
Bluetooth 2.0 + EDR
A BlackBerry-esque jog ball
T-Mobile's... TmoNews seems to think Samsung's Tocco T919 is headed to T-Mobile USA. If so, it would certainly qualify as HOT in my book. Full touchscreen with Samsung's TouchWiz UI, 3G, 5MP Camera with flash, GPS and voice command. Hot enough for you? Hot enough for me to give it a go head-to-head against my unlocked iPhone.
We could see this before the end of the year. We could see a full-on Samsung touchscreen explosion, too,... Check out the TmoNews Friday Big Tease. That's all I'm sayin'. Especially if you've been reading my T-Mobile teaser posts of the last week or two. I'm not saying my tease and TmoNews' tease are related. I'm just sayin' if you're interested in one you're bound to be interested in the other.Oh, and that T-Mobile device I keep mentioning? Totally hot ;-) No physical QWERTY board, but still hot. Retail giant Best Buy has apparently been working overtime to get on
Apple's good side, and it seems all that hard work is about to pay
off. Best Buy will become the third retailer of Apple's iPhone 3G,
alongside AT&T and Apple itself, with iPhone 3Gs hitting BB shelves
as soon as September 7th, according to a press release issued today by the company.Shawn Score, head of Best Buy Mobile (BB's mobile phone store within a store) was... Last week I made mention of an unnamed, destined for T-Mobile handset
that I'd been lucky enough to catch a glimpse of first-hand. I called
it "T-Mobile's best phone ever,"
and the speculation began in the comments section. Some folks guessed
that I'd seen an early prototype of a Google Android-based device,
perhaps the HTC Dream. Nope. I saw something else entirely. That
being said, an Android-powered HTC... [quote user="bellasera"]
So here is my question; I just recently purchased an iPhone in hopes of unlocking it. I found a lot of information explaining how to unlock the iPhone, however that is not my question. My question(s) is/are this:
1. When using a T-Mobile SIM card that card needs to be paid for right (in other words it needs to be active)?Yes the sim card must be associated with a currently active account
2. Can... So here is my question; I just recently purchased an iPhone in hopes of unlocking it. I found a lot of information explaining how to unlock the iPhone, however that is not my question. My question(s) is/are this:1. When using a T-Mobile SIM card that card needs to be paid for right (in other words it needs to be active)?2. Can another number be programed onto that SIM card?3. Can I simply use wireless instead of the T-Mobile service, or is... The only way brown will ever work on a cell phone is if has a metalic pearl finish.
It really has to be glossy or else it will just look like??? well.....a turd
IMO Since when is brown a good color for a cell phone?
It looks like a Hershey candy bar [*-)]
I can't believe Microsoft paid $240 million for only 1.6% stake in facebook???
Makes me sick especially due to the fact the company is only 4 years old!!!!
Three new colors Pearl colors - blue, sunset (red) and pale gold.
Does anyone really care? The 8100 has definately jumped the shark! Does T-Mobile out source its customer service department? It all depends on who you listen to. And you have to agree to a 2 year contract, right? |
