Matrix: Pantech cooking up Duo successor for AT&T

Matrix: Pantech cooking up Duo successor for AT&T

Remember the Pantech Duo, a Helio Ocean-esque dual slider WinMo smartphone for AT&T?  I really like the idea of that phone, but in reality it was super bulky and just not that fun to use.  Looks like Pantech's cooking up a successor of sorts, and has dumbed the Duo down in a good way to create the Matrix, a dual-slider that's a messaging-centric "dumb phone" with slicker styling, funner features, and (hopefully) a slimmer...

New AT&T Messaging Phones : Duo 2, Samsung i640 Coming?

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,...

Dual Slider Smartphone: Duo Shows Up in AT&T Stores

Boy Genius reports he's got his hands on the new Pantech Duo for AT&T, and word is also trickling in from other sources that the Duo is, in fact, available in select locations.  This Windows Mobile 6 smartphone features a Helio Ocean-esque dual-sliding form factor with dedicated dialing and QWERTY keypads.  3G support, a 1.3MP camera, and support for AT&T's Mobile Music and CV (video) packages make this a really compelling...

Pantech Duo-C810

Overall Rating:
3.7 out of 5
By: Paula DiBacco on Wednesday, July 30, 2008
From: Hummelstown, PA (United States)
Experience: 60 Days
Pros: Nice phone, surprising light and compact. A lot of features. The sliders are well constructed. I previously owned a Motorolla KRZR and was used to a small/light phone. The qwerty keyboard is very easy to use. The layout is simple. Transferring data to and from PC is simple although I purchased an additional program instead of using the free one that comes with the phone. The program that comes with the phone only allows you to transfer contacts at the top level of Outlook. I have multiple addre

Cons: Although you can set ringtones to specific contacts, you cannot use your own ringtones for alerts such as when a text messages arrives or you have voicemail. You must use the phones internal alterts.

The biggest issue I have with this phone is that I am no longer able to get service inside my house. I had no issues using the KRZR inside my home, but this phone's internal antenna just isn't strong enough. I would proceed with caution if you rely soley on your cell phone for all calls. You'

Summary: The phone is nice with a lot of features and I would recommend it to anyone who enjoys texting and wants a full keyboard.

    Hey, look what just came!  Thanks, Vanessa ;-)  Here are some photos of the black LG Lotus for Sprint.  The QWERTY board feels GREAT so far, as those bubbled chiclet-style keys make up for the relatively small size of the layout.  Sprint's new One Click UI is sort of cool and helpful and sort of overdone; I'll have to play with it more, but I hope it winds up being handier more often than it gets in the way.  And I'm...

    WiMax: HTC drops super shiny WiMax phone on Russia

    HTC T8290

    Might this be a peek into our near-term future?  I hope so.  You're looking at the HTC T8290, a shiny, sleek, badass looking piece of kit from HTC destined for Russia's Yota network. What's neat about this device, besides its obvious good looks, is that it packs both GSM and WiMax connectivity so you can get your voice and high-speed data on in style.  There's a 3.8", 800 x 480 hi-res display for all of that content you'll be...

    First off, how cool is it that HTC dropped some significant cell phone news on the blogosphere via Twitter the other day?  I'm not saying Twitter itself is/isn't cool, but rather that it's neat to see a tech company innovate when it comes to communicating with the media.  Particularly so a tech company that uses the word "Innovation" in their marketing materials. Second, my post about the possibility of the HTC Touch HD coming to...

    An Android Community user - and T-Mobile Store Manager in Florida, apparently - who goes by kaziko has posted the first user review of T-Mobile's G1 Android phone.  The review - which takes the form of an ongoing forum thread - is summarized nicely in this post if you don't care to dive into the 11+ page thread. Of course, if you do there's text galore to tide you over until those G1s start shipping on the 22nd. So what's kaziko...

    Hands-Free: Driving with both earbuds in is NOT okay

    Driving with both earbuds

    For the past few weeks I've been considering writing a post about how California's law against driving while holding a cell phone has done pretty much nothing to curb the habit - at least in the Oakland/Berkeley area where I live and work.  Yesterday on my bike ride home from the office I figured out why I hadn't penned the post yet.  The law has done something, I think.  Sure, I still see at least three drivers with cellies in...

    When I first heard that T-mobile was offering a VoIP service, frankly, I wondered what could cause them to do such a thing, and what would motivate a customer to buy it. I've never paid much attention to VoIP because I've gotten so used to being mobile, 100% of the time. I went to my local T-Mobile store to check it out, and saw that they were pushing it as the hot new product. The service is $10 a month for unlimited calls, to anywhere in...
