UTStarcom Knick will launch as AT&T Quickfire
A previously reported device, UTStarcom's Knick, has been renamed as the Quickfire and the name sits well with the fact that it will bring the user an easy messaging experience.

The feature set will include a 1.3 megapixel camera, the ability to send/receive email, mobiTV, AT&T Navigator and a touch screen. The device will support quad-band frequencies for GSM/EDGE and dual-band for 3G.

The Sidekick look-a-like will be available in three colors: gray, orange and green. The price point is speculated to be $99.99 after a 2 year contract. It is expected to hit the stores late this month.

Four days and they wouldn't let you upgrade? I'd have called the manager out and made a scene...but I guess you're a pussy that gets walked over continually.

y'know, not all of us have to be emotionally unstable...and really, no need to call names. i guess some people have certain appointments to take care of. hope your mom gives you your meds on time or you'll have to have another APPOINTMENT....

Do you know if this phone has a 9 digit keypad on the touch screen that you can use for texting like in the LG voyager for verizon??

Does the touch screen on the quickfire have the 9 digit keypad used for texting like the voyager?

>>>"i luv this phone to bad it is going 2 att and not vzw" verizon already has its share of good phones. why complain now?

You should get the quickfire. Its got wifi internet and the matrix is just a messaging phone (if you are in to the "just messaging" thing). And not to mention its way bigger and it has a touchscreen with the push out querty keyboard, the matrix is $80 and the quickfire is $100, so why not spend $20 more for a way better phone? I agree with what you say about big fingers, the quickfire is made for people with bigger hands. And I also heard it will not be coming out in late october (which is now) but november, hopes its not late november because I'm dying to get this phone!!! So if you ask me, I'd get the quickfire.

I looked at the matrix. Not as good as i thought it would be. its really thick and the keyboard isn't that great.

44. (unregistered) posted on 02 Nov 2008, 19:33

Comes Out November 11!!!!

54. (unregistered) posted on 08 Nov 2008, 15:17

I looked at the matrix and it felt cheap. It is also a great looking phone though

56. (unregistered) posted on 17 Nov 2008, 15:15

i'm debating between the two of those as well

It's the AT&T version of T-Mobile's Sidekick! And that's not a bad thing.

20. (unregistered) posted on 19 Oct 2008, 10:24

but with a touch screen

24. Jyakotu (unregistered) posted on 19 Oct 2008, 15:52

Even better!!! I will make sure to upgrade to this phone ASAP!!!

3. (unregistered) posted on 10 Oct 2008, 08:35

this phone will be easy to sell

4. Armo (unregistered) posted on 10 Oct 2008, 09:14

u sure it has a touch screen? everywhere else i read about this they didnt mention a touch screen. and i doubt it is considering the price tag.
