T-Mobile's Shadow Steps Into the Light

Oct 28, 2007, 11:24 PM by (staff)

Today T-Mobile announced its newest Windows Mobile 6 Smartphone, the Shadow. The HTC Shadow is a slider with a SureType keypad and quad-band GSM/EDGE radios. T-Mobile and Microsoft developed a user interface overlay that users can use to access most of the phone's features without diving into Windows Mobile. The D-pad doubles as a scroll wheel to navigate through the menus. It also has stereo Bluetooth and a 2 Megapixel camera, expandable storage with the microSD slot, and Wi-Fi. It is compatible with MyFaves, and goes on sale October 31st for $150 with two-year contract. T-Mobile has also recently reduced its unlimited data plan pricing from $30 per month to $20. This is the first phone in a "planned franchise of phones" under the Shadow brand exclusive to T-Mobile.

If it only had a touch screen, UMA, etc....

A faster processor would be nice too. It's a "Windows Mobile Samsung Blast" with a nicer camera and a prettier finish. Some may like it, but I'll stick with my Curve. 😎

Faster processor is always nice. At least the Shadow is not as bad as the Wing. Also, they doubled the ROM (256MB) and RAM (128MB) from the Dash, so it runs a lot smoother.

Good decision

🙂 This sounds like a good decision on T-mobile's part. $30 is extremely pricey for their data speeds and coverage. $20 is understandable. It's also a good idea for them to try to trademark a pda under their name. We'll see what the product's quality is like...

beeferjay

well, brains, we are speaking about t-mobile and HTC.

of course it will be a device of distinction

the $20 unlimited is prolly in response to the lack of 3G

Wireless Buddy

They already trademarked a PDA under their name. It's called the MDA.
