By: Subha Shankar

T-Mobile today has announced the new T-mobile Wing smartphone with slide-out QWERTY keyboard, touch screen, and sleep blue exterior. The phone, developed by HTC, also has a 2.0-megapixel camera, extended battery life, Bluetooth connectivity, and full internet access.

With the T-Mobile Wing, we have the freedom to choose how to communicate, whether it's calling our loved ones, e-mailing with friends, or sharing presentations with a client from one of more than 8,000 T-Mobile HotSpot locations.

This is 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.

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* - while the vibrant, high-quality screen provides a rich experience for Web browsing or watching video clips* in landscape format.

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 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).
