Ocean for the rest of us: Pantech C810 Dual-Slider coming to AT&T
Multiple reports have cropped up in the past few weeks all but confirming the Ocea-esque Pantech C810 all but ready for an AT&T launch. Built by the folks responsible for manufacturing the Helio Ocean, the C810 will feature a similar dual-sliding design with discrete layers for numerical and QWERTY keypads. Unlike Ocean's proprietary OS, the C810 is slated to run Windows Mobile 6.
The handset has recently shown up as a "Coming Soon" device on wirefly.com, and the listed specs include full 3G data support including HSDPA, a two-megapixel camera that supports AT&T's "Video Share" videoconferencing solution, and a QVGA display.
Boy Genius has a photo of the device showing the QWERTY board in full extension. Hard to tell the scale of the thing, but it looks to have keys that are larger (and hopefully a little more comfy) than those found on the Ocean, though the C810 is said to be smaller overall. BG also has run photos of an AT&T price sheet listing the device at a $299 price point with a two-year contract, or $499 with no commitment.

Noah's got the iPhone 3G and the old iPhone - the old one's jailbroken, unlocked, and running on T-Mobile. Side by side you can see how the unlocked version works just like the new one (minus 3G). All hail the iPhone-dev team! Also, check out the T-Zones hack for T-Mobile users! Another Internet speed test pitting four 3G phones against one another. The takeaway? 3G coverage is lousy in Oakland. Or ... Noah has no idea what he's doing. Noah puts Instinct and iPhone 3G head-to-head in a Web and speed battle. First is a raw download speed test, and then a few Web page load tests. Who won? Watch the video and find out ... The big news with the new iPhone is price, 3G, and the App Store. Noah takes a look at Super Monkey Ball, Pandora, and Box Office in Part 2 of PhoneDog's look at the App Store. The big news with the new iPhone is price, 3G, and the App Store. Noah takes a look at installing Apps and checks out a few of them in Part 1 of PhoneDog's look at the App Store. Three hot touchscreen phones - which one's right for you? This is the loooong version of a head to head to head between Instinct, Vu, and iPhone. If you're not up for 15 in-depth minutes, check out the short version for the summary. So this guy walks into a bar and says, "Wait, is that a BlackBerry Bold
in your pocket or are you just happy to see the Phone Dawg?"
Sorry,
couldn't resist. But seriously, that blurry photo? It's me, in a bar
late last night, posing with a an AT&T-branded BlackBerry Bold.
The Bold belongs to the person who took the photo, and said person had
also just bought our second round of Guiness, so you'll have to forgive

always used Apple products, have never bought a non-Apple computer, and

Using Opera Mini browser on my Nokia E71 and N95 on T-mobiles network I can browse the web faster than using AT&T or Sprints 3G networks, I've tested it. The pages load about 3 seconds faster than on the 3G networks. I have found that this is not well known among T-mobile users that I know. None - Verizon and Cingular are on different networks
