T-Mobile launched the second handset for its future 3G network, the Nokia 6263.

This is a flip phone supporting 1700/2100MHz frequencies and quad-band GSM/EDGE networks. It has a QVGA display, 1.3Mpix camera, built-in FM tuner, stereo Bluetooth, and microSD slot (up to 4GB) with an included 512MB card.

The Hamburg District Court announced on Monday that it would delay by one a ruling on dispute between T-Mobile and Vodafone over the right to sell the Apple iPhone in Germany.

Now the ruling is expected to be announced this afternoon. Just to remind you, the case started on November 12 when after the Vodafone's appeal T-Mobile was forbidden to sell the handset exclusively.

T-Mobile announced that they will soon launch the HTC Touch Dual smartphone in the UK under a different name, the MDA Touch Plus.

So don't get confused, these are two similar handsets. And now let's see what the device has to offer:

• 16-key numeric keypad;
• TouchFLO interface;
• 400 MHz CPU;
• 2.

According to a T-Mobile representative, the company plans to launch its long-awaited 3G network next week.

There is not much info on this matter right now, mostly rumors, but as we expect the network will be using the 1700 MHz frequency band and will be online by December 6, 2007.

Until then we wait.

As you probably know, T-Mobile Germany has recently started offering unlocked (contract free) iPhones for 999 Euros.

Well, they are not really unlocked; you purchase a regular locked handset, and then send the phone's IMEI to Apple for unlocking. Within 24 hours they send you an e-mail saying "thank you”, and after that you just connect your iPhone to iTunes and voila.

If you recall, T-Mobile has recently stopped selling Motorola's Sidekick Slide smartphones because of their battery problems.

Now Motorola claims it has fixed all the issues and will implement the solution in new and existing devices.

So we can expect Sidekick Slide to appear on the market again next week.

On November 14, T-Mobile has notified around 600 of its customers who roam too much that they will be disconnected from the service if they don't change their voice plan to T-Mobile To Go.

And this move is reasonable: there is no point in keeping subscribers who spend too much time outside the carrier’s coverage area.

T-Mobile's Sidekick Slide is now off sale until Motorola fixes a defect in the handset.

The carrier has recently received a number of complains from customers whose phones turn off when the screen is slid open or closed. All Slide owners who have the same problem should contact customer support to return the device into a T-Mobile store.

FCC has unveiled some info about the new BlackBerry 8120.

The device is a GSM/EDGE version of the 8130 model, and has almost the same features as the previous including GPS, 3.5mm headset jack, stereo Bluetooth, external microSD slot, and updated mail client.

In addition, the 8120 also comes with 802.

The new Sidekick Slide smartphone is now available from T-Mobile and replaced the Sidekick LX.

The device doesn't differ much from its predecessor with technical characteristics, but it has a nice streamline design and a low price tag of only $199 after a 2-year agreement.
