Engadget Mobile got their hands on a survey being sent around to AT&T customers, and it might foretell of some new QWERTY messaging phones coming soon to the carrier's shelves. The survey asks for consumer opinions on a number of text-centric phones, including a T-Mobile Sidekick and VZW's new enV2, as well as an AT&T branded, dual-sliding Pantech device that looks a little sleeker and svelter than the current Duo. Duo 2, maybe? There's also a Samsung slider with... At long last some news on the forthcoming sequel to Helio's flagship device: The Ocean 2, aka OZ2. The notable changes seem to be on the inside, as OZ2 rocks the same dual slider form factor as the original and looks to be more or less the same size, if a little more rounded and futuristic looking. Honestly, it's hard to tell from the sole photo that hit the Web over on Engadget Mobile.What's easier to get a read on are Ocean 2's specs: 3mp camera (up from 2mp), 30 fps video...

3G support, a 1.3MP camera, and support for AT&T's Mobile Music and CV (video) packages make this a really compelling choice in the newly hot "entertainment smartphone"... 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.

The handset has recently shown up as a "Coming Soon" device on wirefly.com, and the listed... Earlier this year, Helio CEO Sky Dayton said that the Ocean is the phone he "dreamt of making" when he first took over as the MVNO's chief executive. The Helio-designed, Pantech-built Ocean has also been near the top of my - and every other phone reviewer's - "can't wait for it" list since it was announced. Featuring a unique dual-slider design affording dedicated QWERTY and dialing pads, a 2mp camera, media player, and messaging-centric features running over Sprint's 3G data... Have you even seen an iMate? That is already a bad sign. It may have all of the bells and whistles, but where are you going to go for support? That is the problem I had with my Pantech Ocean.
