HTC Touch Pro2 Coming To T-Mobile As Well

T-Mobile recently announced that they will be releasing the HTC Touch Pro2 August 12th. It looks like all of the carriers are getting in on the game including Verizon. T-Mobile’s version does not have a 3.5mm jack but instead a micro usb converter for audio. Noah at Phone Dog just unboxed T-Mobile’s HTC Touch Pro2, so go check out his video.

Update: The T-Mobile version is limited to a 3 person conference call. Also for some reason the default browser is no longer Opera Mobile but rather Pocket IE.

Carrier Wars – All About The Numbers

Kyle — Wed, 05 Aug 2009 20:22:56 +0000

Verizon Wireless is leading in the United States with 87.7 million subscribers. Closely tailing Verizon is AT&T with around 80 million. This is largely due to AT&T’s exclusive deal to sell the iPhone. So that speaks loads about Verizon because they don’t have a phone anywhere near as popular as the iPhone and have around 7 million more customers.

In third place is Sprint which is behind in the game. Even with the launch of the Palm Pre last quarter Sprint’s subscribers are declining. Currently they have 48.8 million customers. They HTC Hero is rumored to launch in the United States on Sprint so that might help.

Bringing up the rear is T-Mobile with just over 30 million subscribers. The reason for this is largely because of their late adoption of a 3G network. Now that they have one established they can hopefully get more customers.

Samsung Bigfoot

Jordan — Fri, 12 Jun 2009 06:04:40 +0000

This is the suspected T-Mobile Bigfoot Android handheld, rumored to be released this summer. The device’s rumored specs are:

3 megapixel camera
UMTS/HSDPA device
3.0″ capacitive AMOLED touch screen display

I’m hoping that the name Bigfoot is the code name for the new phone, and not it’s real title.
