Documents seen on the Federal Communications Commission web site today revealed details about an unannounced handset from Alcatel. The Sparq II is a sideways slider with a numerical keypad on the front and a QWERTY keyboard for messaging. The FCC confirms that it supports T-Mobile's spectrum bands, in addition to Bluetooth and Wi-Fi. Pictures show that the Sparq II includes a camera with a flash. A draft user manual included with the FCC filing mentions features such as an FM radio, web browser, media player, and support for microSD cards, but these details are not confirmed. Neither Alcatel nor T-Mobile has announced the Sparq II, and its pricing and availability are unknown.
