T-Mobile Unveils a New Full-Featured Smartphone, the T-Mobile Wing
T-Mobile USA, Inc., today announced the availability of the new T-Mobile Wing?, a phone designed to help customers master their busy personal and professional lives. Developed by High Tech Computer Corp. (HTC), the world?s leading provider of Microsoft Windows Mobile-based devices, the T-Mobile Wing has a blue soft-touch exterior, touch screen, and full, slide-out QWERTY keyboard - a great fit for customers seeking a powerful all-in-one device with an eye-catching design and enhanced ease of use.
"In today's hectic and fast-paced world, staying connected to those who matter most is not easy," said Leslie Grandy, vice president, Product Development, T-Mobile USA. "With the T-Mobile Wing, customers have the freedom to choose how to communicate, whether it's calling their loved ones, e-mailing with friends, or sharing presentations with a client from one of more than 8,000 T-Mobile HotSpot locations."
Designed by HTC and available exclusively from T-Mobile, the T-Mobile Wing brings many enhancements in form and functionality including a new keyboard design, longer battery life, a 2.0 megapixel camera, a great phone experience with speakerphone, and Bluetooth connectivity for reliable hands-free use. The powerful messaging options and full QWERTY 'slider' keyboard provide quick and convenient access to personal and professional e-mail, and all four major instant messaging providers AOL, Yahoo!, Windows Live Messenger and ICQ(a) while the vibrant, high-quality screen provides a rich experience for Web browsing or watching video clips(a) in landscape format.
"The HTC-designed T-Mobile Wing is a versatile, user-friendly smartphone that will appeal to a wide range of consumers," said Todd Achilles, vice president of HTC America. "The T-Mobile Wing is 30 percent smaller than its predecessor, the T-Mobile MDA, and is packed with broad functionality that enables users to experience the best in connectivity, productivity and mobility."
T-Mobile Wing Features New Advances in Software Including Windows Mobile 6
The T-Mobile Wing is the first new 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 e-mail so that people can view and compose e-mail 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.
T-Mobile Wing 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 e-mail, calendar and contact information. Customers using the T-Mobile Wing at work with Microsoft Exchange Server can get instant e-mail 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 myFavesSM-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).
