HTC TyTN II/Kaiser coming to T-Mobile

Posted by Patrick Kortendick on Jul 31, 2008 Share

From phonenews.com: “The FCC has revealed a version of the HTC Kaiser/TyTn II with 1700Mhz 3G access, making it one of the first smart devices to be compatible with T-Mobile’s emerging 3G network.

The device also includes a front facing camera for video calls, but it is unknown whether T-Mobile will support the functionality on its network according to UMTS spec or if it will offer a one way service similar to AT&T.

It is otherwise similar to the current Kaiser/Tilt with the addition of TouchFLO and Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional Edition along with Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 2.0+EDR, internal GPS transceiver with both TomTom and QuickGPS software, and 3.2 megapixel camera.”

Guess we gotta deal with no more AT&T exclusivity now… Read the full article here.

Pretty cool. Been looking to upgrade my TyTN currently on T-Mo.

I saw this yesterday. The picture that they show is a old cropped picture of a non-branded Kaiser with front facing camera.

I have no doubt that T-Mobile will in fact get the Tilt (or Kaiser) but I do highly doubt they will start using video calling since they JUST NOW started rolling out 3G.

Thanks for catching that. The At&t tilt's 3G will work on TMo's 2100 band...but you'd probably get crap signal indoors.

AT&T; Tilt uses a quad band:
Wireless Technology
GSM/GPRS850/900/1800/900 MHz

3G 850/1900/2100 MHzEDGE High Speed Data Network

Should still work on T-Mobile 2100 MHz

Of course SOME of us have been using a T-mobile Kaiser for some time ;)

TMobile will be offering 3G service in 27 markets on 1OCT:

New York City, Austin, NJ and Long Island, Las Vagas, Minneapolis, Miami, Dallas, Chicago, Houston, Philadelphia, Denver, Detroit, Orlando, Kansas city, Atlanta, Los Angeles, New England, Portland, Sacramento, San Diego, Seattle, Washington DC, San Francisco, Birmingham, Memphis, Tampa and Phoenix.

At&t will have 3G service in 350 markets by '09. I won't list them.

TMo 3G service will use 1700/2100Mhz frequencies for their 3G service. At&t uses 850/1900. So your at&t tilt won't work on Tmo and vice versa.

At&t > TMobile

From a soon to be Tilt owner: Whats the difference between T-Mobiles 3G network and AT&T's 3G network? This phone seems to be a little better, should I wait for it? Any idea of a time frame for release?

Thanks, to everyone who contributes to this site ...

C'mon in and join the fun!
