New Messaging Phone from Alcatel Passes FCC Scrutiny

Yes they would but no major gsm carrier in the US carries Alcatel. Most are sold through places like buy.com and the sharper image.

AT&T and TMO get all of those type phones from Samsung and LG, the way they want them.

I don't think it'd be half as bad if it wasn't bright yellow-green!

Maybe its just me but I think the bright color fade to black in the middle looks pretty sweet.
