Text fans rejoice, AT&T announced four new phones for you. All they feature QWERTY keyboards, instant messengers and email clients and are non-smart handsets...

Basically direct copies. The Pantehc Matrix copies the Samsung Glyde, the Pantech Slate copies the Nokia E61, the Samsung Propel looks a lot like the Samsung SGH-a737, and the Pantech Quickfire looks like the T-Mobile Sidekick Series of phones. I don't like all of 'em.

uhhhhh
not really =.=
the matrix isnt touch screen and its not nearly as fat as the glyde
the slate kinda is like the e61 but there are SO many phones like that
and yes the propel looks like the 737 but theyve had the version of it in europe out for a while now
it used to have windows mobile on it too so this one will be better
and yea the quickfire looks like a sidekick ...
except it adds touch screen and should be really cool and new
all the sidekicks are the same now -sigh-

The glyde... hahaha. I used to work for VZW, BOO! That phone is problematic! Its slow... it freezes. Come on...that phone is a joke hands down. good luck with a company that all they will do is steal your money and walk away!

By "non-smart" handsets, I take it that it means that there is no Exchange synchronization, and the ability to add additional applications like with Windows Mobile, Symbian, Palm devices?

Opera Mini and some little Java should be available for all of them,and the email will be at&t's non push mobile email app. No Exchange or really cool stuff,but enough to get the job done for the no smartphone consumer.

the most interesting of that bunch is the Quickfire, but they're all pretty impressive, and i agree, AT&T has almost no QWERTY phones that aren't smartphones

Lots of nice phones.
The Quickfire is the one that most interests me but I'm either getting a XPERIA or Fuze next year when I upgrade.

the Propel...I can't stop thinking about the drink haha
it seems to be really similar to the Blitz but cooler

and I think all 4 phones are pretty neat, especially the quickfire I just hope the UI is neat too

No,if it were similar or was the Xenon,phonearena would have said so. I spoke to an LG sales rep recentlly who said the Xenon may not be released on at&t because it would cost too much for most customers to feel like paying for. Look for it to be only available unlocked or through Rogers,T-Mo somewhere in Europe,or Russia,but not a carrier in the US.
