T-mobile is the fourth largest carrier in the US, but that is not stopping them from launching a 3g network (1700Mhz) and 16 devices by August 2008. This news comes straight on the heels of a botched Voice-Only 3g network launch, but after you review the list of devices coming to the carrier this might be the last thing on your mind. As you are expecting there will be some color variants of existing devices along with some software updates to the Sidekick lineup. Without further adieu here are the 16 devices coming to T-mobile sales channels in the next two months:
- Nokia 5310
- Nokia 5610
- Shadow II
- Nokia 2760
- Nokia 1208
- Nokia 6301
- Shadow III
- Samsung T339
- Samsung T229
- Blackberry Bold
- Blackberry Kickstart
- Motorola W450
- Motorola Rokr E8
There are 13 of the 16 devices with the final 3 devices being kept a secret until further down the road. The big news here is that the Blackberry Bold is expected to launch in this time frame. This is a complete surprise, but keep in mind that the devices mentioned above are yet to be confirmed officially. In any case, this is some solid news for T-mobile subscribers and should keep you patient as your 3g network launch slowly moves along.
