Smartphone Thoughts is reporting the availability to pre-register with T-Mobile on the MDA & SDA avaialability!
T-Mobile is finally going to release a modern Windows Mobile Smartphone and Pocket PC Phone! Hell has indeed frozen over.
Here is one that I’ll be making use of once the T-Mobile MDA (their US variant of the Wizard) is out! I’ve always thought a Pocket PC should have a cradle available for charging, syncing and simply someplace to set the device where you always know where its at. This one is made by Boxwave and can be found here. The cradle works with the following versions of the HTS Wizard: O2 XDA Mini, Orange SPV M3000, T-Mobile MDA Vario, Qtek 9100 and iMate KJAM.
Thanks to Cool Smart Phone for the tip!
Techdirt Wireless has a post about how T-Mobile USA is now committing to 3G, hoping to launch 3G services by the end of 2006. They also mention that it may be to T-Mobile’s benefit to be rolling out 3G later than their peers and that nobody has figured out how to market 3G yet.
I’ll agree with this completely – T-Mobile can roll out a much more mature technology instead of spending billions implementing through trial & error. The result will be 3G services for less than the competition, and that is the key to 3G that all the carriers just don’t get. There is no magic ticket for 3G except for a big fat wireless pipe for cheap, just like a home broadband connection.
The sooner carriers understand that they simply supply a connection and get away from the idea that they need to wall the customer in, or provide some ‘hip’ service like ringtones (LOL), the sooner they will be able to sign up the majority of their existing voice customers as data customers.
The business plan for 3G is simple if they will try it, and remains the same as many business models: Volume!
Well the tidal wave of new Windows Mobile 2005 devices is building. Here is the current state of device releases:
Fantastic stuff! Many of these devices on are available direct on the internet from places like MadMonkeyBoy, Expansys, MobilePlanet and more. Watch the carriers for there releases over the next 2-3 months. Great time for Windows Mobile, especially if you are considering a change from RIM’s Blackberry!

@MAC_Arms Pay taxes when you make your money, pay taxes when you spend your money, pay taxes when you successfully invest your money, pay taxes when you save enough taxed money to afford a house, pay taxes to live in your house, pay taxes when you sell the house that you paid taxes on to
Yup, taxes are criminal and we need serious reforms. I've always said that if you want to see a tax revolt, make withholdings illegal and have Americans write a tax check every payday. They'll revolt for sure. You don't miss what you never had.
I think it’s safe to say that @GovEvers should stop blocking audits in Wisconsin and open the books…
“Only AMERICAN citizens should vote.”
Sen. @berniemoreno says voter ID and proof of citizenship are simply common sense.
“We’re talking about a very low threshold — identify who you are and prove you’re a U.S. citizen when you register to vote. I think we’re getting closer to
Wrong. Democrats are solely responsible for hours-long airport lines.
They voted to defund TSA three times and won’t even entertain a conversation about reopening it. Why?
They’re using it as leverage to stop enforcing immigration laws.
