T-Mobile today announced the T-Mobile Wing, a T-Mobile smartphone with a blue soft-touch exterior, touch screen, and full, slide-out QWERTY keyboard.
Designed by HTC, the T-Mobile Wing brings many enhancements in form and functionality including a new keyboard design, longer battery life, a 2.0-megapixel camera, speakerphone, and Bluetooth connectivity for reliable handsfree use. The messaging options and full QWERTY "slider" keyboard provide quick and convenient access to personal and professional email, and all four major instant messaging providers - AOL, Yahoo!, Windows Live Messenger and ICQ - while the vibrant, high-quality screen provides a rich experience for Web browsing or watching video clips in landscape format.
The T-Mobile Wing is the first device brought to market in the U.S. to be powered by Microsoft Windows Mobile 6, offering faster access to contacts, the ability to view and edit Microsoft Office documents, and even richer Web experiences. Windows Mobile 6 supports HTML email so that people can view and compose email messages in their original HTML format with live links to Web sites, support for images, tables and bullets. Text and images are displayed as they would be on a PC, whether from their Microsoft Office Outlook and Exchange Server account, from a Web-based account such as Windows Live Hotmail or from a myriad of other popular service providers.
Customers will also enjoy integrated Windows Live services including Windows Live Messenger to chat with more than one person at a time and to express themselves through emoticons; Windows Live Hotmail that is up-to-date and delivered directly to the device; all contacts in a unified, presence-enabled list; Live Search to quickly and efficiently search the Web for news, local businesses and entertainment, directions, maps, images, and more; and Windows Live Spaces to access links to friends' spaces within contact cards and send photos directly to their space from the Wing.
The included Outlook Mobile software offers up-to-date email, calendar and contact information. Customers using the T-Mobile Wing at work with Microsoft Exchange Server can get instant email and enhanced security features that let them clear data from a device if it is stolen or require high-security passwords to access information.
The T-Mobile Wing is a myFaves-enabled phone, taking advantage of the personal wireless communications experience available only through T-Mobile. Customers are empowered with a fun and easy-to-use phone interface which, when coupled with a myFaves rate plan, facilitates unlimited nationwide calling to any five U.S. phone numbers, even landlines (excluding toll-free and 900 numbers).
The T-Mobile Wing will be available exclusively to T-Mobile customers beginning May 22 at T-Mobile retail stores and online.
