    Default What a Monday!

    So I have been wide open since about 5:15AM this morning. Its currently 10:19 and I am just sitting down to unwind . . . So did Cingular hold any kind of press conference about pending Treos? Best I remember, I was hearing that Cingular announced they were holding one today . . . Anybody hear anything??

    OK, so I dug around this AM and answered my own question. No Treo news with Cingy . . But they did announce a "Q" lookalike . .

    Copied from Engadget:

    We love the Dash and all, but if you're Stateside and have been waiting for a formidable Q competitor complete with 3G, you've probably had your eye on the i607 BlackJack. It's a little chunky, a little clunky, and the keys and keyboard are not exactly our favorite (think: i320 meets Q), but it's the only GSM phone on the block with EDGE / UMTS / HSDPA. Other notable features include a QVGA display, new Cingular Music support (as well as Cingular Video), Bluetooth 2.0, and a 1.3 megapixel camera. Like its other holiday 2006 QWERTY smartphone competitors (see: Treo 680, Dash, Q), it too will be priced at $200 with a two year contract (and unlimited data plan). And hey, lucky you, both Phone Scoop and LAPTOP have reviews of the device, both of which seem pretty positive about Cingular's latest (even despite that sad lack of WiFi).

    Sometimes, I think you know WAY too much about phones.

    By the way, does the Q come with a touchscreen, yet?

    No, the Q runs Windows Mobile Smartphone which does not support touchscreen. There is a Pro version coming, but I haven't seen anything that would indicate it will run PocketPC (which supports touchscreen).
