T-Mobile Wing myFaves Smartphone (T-Mobile)

T-Mobile Dash myFaves Smartphone



The successor to the popular MDA Smartphone, the T-Mobile Wing quad-band phone has a surprise waiting up its sleeve: just slide the top of the phone sideways to reveal a full QWERTY keyboard. It's especially handy with the inclusion of the new Windows Mobile 6 operating system, which enables you to view and edit Word and Excel documents as well as provides instant message capabilities via Windows Live Messenger. (See more details about Windows Mobile 6 below.) The included Outlook Mobile software offers up-to-date e-mail, calendar and contact information. If you use the T-Mobile Wing in conjunction with Microsoft Exchange Server, you can get instant e-mail from your work account as well as enhanced security features that let you clear data from a device if it is stolen or require high-security passwords to access information.

The T-Mobile Wing has a sleek profile that measures just 17mm (0.7 inches) thick, and it weighs a svelte 6 ounces (with battery loaded). The 2.8-inch color touchscreen transreflective TFT screen automatically orients itself depending on how you hold the phone (i.e., from portrait to landscape and back again). It displays 65,000 colors and has a 320 x 240-pixel resolution. You can scroll through onscreen functions with a pen or finger, or you can use the function buttons placed on the front of the phone.

In addition to supporting GSM/GPRS and EDGE, the Wing also features Wi-Fi (802.11b/g), which enables you to use open wireless networks (as well as T-Mobile's more than 8,000 HotSpot locations) to access the Internet as well as access all four major instant messaging providers--AOL, Yahoo!, Windows Live Messenger, and ICQ. With the Bluetooth 2.0 connectivity, you can go hands-free with a headset or listen to music with wireless-enabled headphones.

The phone offers 128 MB of ROM (which stores the Windows Mobile 6 operating system and applications) and 64 MB of RAM (which can be used to store user files). It's powered by a 1130 mAh lithium-ion polymer rechargeable battery, which offers between 150 and 200 hours of standby time and 3 to 5 hours of talk time.
