Check this out. T-mobile has re-imagined the myTouch 3G. They’ve added something that was sorely needed: a 3.5mm headphone jack for a new version of the phone later this year. The other news is that the new myTouch is being released as a special edition thanks to a partnership with Fender.

This baby sports a super nice woodgrain finish, comes bundled with a 16GB microSD card, and has some preloaded music content. Pretty nice huh?

One of the problems with T-Mobile in many areas is that there are very limited retail outlets where you can walk in and check out their offerings or sign up for new service. The other big problem is that T-Mobile’s network isn’t that great in many smaller cities and rural areas.

T-Mobile and RadioShack announced a new retail agreement today that will almost double the number of retail stores T-Mobile has in the country. RadioShack stores will be selling T-Mobile service and devices including the G1 and myTouch 3G with Google.

Lawmakers are looking into possible antitrust violations centering on exclusive deals that most of the major cellular makers offer with handset to get customers. The exclusive deals allegedly make it hard for small providers to compete.

For now, exclusives are still the norm and Samsung and T-Mobile have announced a couple new exclusive handsets called the Samsung Comeback and the Samsung Gravity 2. We have talked about the Comeback already, so I won’t focus on that handset other than to say T-Mobile will offer it for $129.99 with a new agreement and it is available now.

T-Mobile has made the new myTouch 3G available for pre-order for those who don’t mind the lack of a physical QWERTY keyboard. It’s a solid choice for Tmo customers looking to get some Android. If you’ve been waiting, you’ll be able to place your pre-order from $199.99 with guaranteed delivery by August 5th.

This pre-order offer is good until July 28th, which gives you plenty of time to figure out if this one is for you. If you need a refresher on the MyTouch’s specs, you’ll find them here.

The highly anticipated myTouch 3G (aka HTC Magic) will soon make its way to T-Mobile USA in early August. The Android-powered handset features a 3.2-inch HVGA capacitive touchscreen display and a 3.2MP autofocus camera with YouTube and Picasa uploading support.

Some other features include a microSD card slot with an included 4GB microSD card, GPS, WiFi, Microsoft Exchange support and supports quad-band EDGE, UMTS/HSDPA (1700MHz/2100MHz) connectivity. You can pre-order it starting on July 8th for $199 with a 2-year contract agreement.

T-Mobile has a new mobile phone that it is offering to its customers called the myTouch 3G. The handset features an interesting software offering that makes it great for users looking for information about their local surroundings.

The application is called Sherpa and is a local discovery app that learns what a user’s favorite types of locations are as it is used. That means that over time if a person searchers for more restaurants than retail stores, the application will return restaurant results rather than shopping.

What’s this? A branded myTouch 3G? Yep. The first T-mobile branded MyTouch 3G shots in the wild. Can a launch be behind? Maybe. Who knows when.

According to the poster on Android Forums, this device was handed out by someone at Google, not T-Mobile. Not much else going on here though. It looks like a nice successor to the G1.

Smartphones are booming today despite the fact that the economy is worse than sitting through an episode of Dancing with the Stars (ok so maybe the economy isn’t that bad). Despite the fact that computer and electronics sales are down, sales of smartphones are still growing nicely. Some analysts say that’s because consumers are looking to devices that can fill multiple needs, which the average smartphone can.

T-Mobile users will soon have a new smartphone that they can choose called the Sidekick LX. The LX is T-Mobile’s first 3G enabled Sidekick and integrates social networking applications Facebook, MySpace, and Twitter in a bundle. Other features include built-in GPS, a 3.2-megapixel camera, and a integrated music player.

T-Mobile’s new webConnect USB Laptop Stick is a portable modem that allows you to connect to the Web on your laptop using T-Mobile’s 3G network or Wi-Fi. The device comes with T-Mobile Connection Manager software to automatically detect the best available Internet connection.

The WebConnect USB laptop stick offers tri-band 3G connectivity (HSDPA/UMTS 1900/AWS/2100), and is compatible with GPRS/EDGE networks. It can also double as a portable storage device with a microSD/SDHC expansion slot that can accept up to 8GB cards.

Mobile phones and other electronics devices are the subject of recycling efforts all around the country. The goal is to keep the devices and their batteries out of landfills. Some companies out there recycle the internal components from discarded electronics to build new products or simply for the raw materials.

T-Mobile has the first handset that is actually made from recycled materials itself. The plastic case of the Moto W233 Renew is made from recycled water bottles. The packaging that the phone ships in uses 22% less material than other handsets and all of the packing materials are made from recycled materials as well.

Battery life on many smart phones isn’t as long as what most owners want from their devices. I hardly think you will find a smartphone user who wouldn’t want longer battery life from their device. You will however find many users who want longer run time, especially among those who use the G1.

One of the worst features for many G1 owners is the battery life, which is oft described as abysmal. The standard battery is an 1150mAh unit that doesn’t cut it for long days of gaming and surfing the Internet. A rumor is circulating that says T-Mobile may be getting ready to give every G1 owner a new battery.

We had word that it’s been showing up in mailboxes and in stores for a few days, but T-Mobile has just officially stated that the G1 is now available in white. So, now you have a snowy wintry choice along with the bronze and plain black. The price, hardware, and software remain the same. It’s just white. Vanilla if you will. Think a minty cool breeze white. A great gift for a…white wedding. And so on and so on. It’s T-Mobile’s new tightey whitey.

Google made big waves when it announced that it intended to enter into the mobile phone operating system world. Google’s Android operating system was very much anticipated and finally launched not too long ago on the T-Mobile G1.

The catch for many who might have been interested in the G1 was that the device is a T-Mobile exclusive. A company called Global Unlock has announced that it is offering unlock codes for the G1 that will allow the device to operate on any GSM network around the world.

According to Dow Jones, as of tomorrow, Walmart will be the cheapest place to buy the T-Mobile G1. Over 550 Walmart stores will begin selling the G1 tomorrow for $148.88 to new T-Mobile customers, or those eligible for an upgrade, with the usual two-year contract. That’s a savings of $31.11 at Wal-Mart as opposed to buying through T-Mobile, which sells the device for $179.99.

Unless you live under a rock in the ocean between Patrick and SpongeBob, you have heard something about the G1 smartphone. The G1 is the first Google Android device to hit the market and compete against the iPhone and the other smartphone players.

T-Mobile announced today that the G1 can now be purchased. According to T-Mobile, you can walk into any T-Mobile store and walk out with the G1 ready to go. the handset can also be purchased on the T-Mobile website. In some 3G T-Mobile areas the G1 can also be purchased at select third party retailers.
