So in other words, you basically get to *choose* which US GSM carrier you want to give your business to (imagine that).

A quick browse of the linked article finds that it also has an enabled FM player and forward facing camera for conference calls, though I don't think it's supported (yet) on any US GSM network.

The last time I checked, a capacitive touch screen won't work with 6.1 or 6.5 WinMo. It is what it is, and this looks like it could be a useful phone for mobile businesses looking for an easy way to combine a navigator and communication device for it's employees.

Also, I'm 99% the article is wrong about it being compatible with both AT&T and TMO 3G. TMO 3G only. It will work on edge on both.

Lastly, this doesn't have a 3.5mm headphone jack, which always bugs me.]]>Jun 4th 2009 4:47PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/04/pharos-traveller-137-now-available-can-use-both-atandt-and-t-mobi/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/04/pharos-traveller-137-now-available-can-use-both-atandt-and-t-mobi/

That's the reason why I don't plan to buy another WinMo device. All the HTCs, Motos and Samsungs I've owned over the years have horrendously bad resistive screens. There is nothing in this world that will make resistive screen to act or have the same quality feel as capacitive. Perhaps, manufacturers should have realized by now that having super invention as "stylus" doesn't compensate for the bad-bad-bad look and feel of the resistive screen. I also don't mind not having Asian fonts on my phone (the major reason provided in defense of resistive screens), I am just fine using plain English...]]>Jun 4th 2009 4:46PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/04/pharos-traveller-137-now-available-can-use-both-atandt-and-t-mobi/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/04/pharos-traveller-137-now-available-can-use-both-atandt-and-t-mobi/Jun 4th 2009 5:13PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/04/pharos-traveller-137-now-available-can-use-both-atandt-and-t-mobi/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/04/pharos-traveller-137-now-available-can-use-both-atandt-and-t-mobi/
I have the same set up you do bro, HTC Fuze with SPB Mobile Shell. I noticed an increase in lag when I installed Fennec. I uninstalled it but my phone still lags here and there. Also with S2u2 at times I can't answer a call and the phone freezes for a couple of seconds. It's frustrating but at least I can customize to my desire.

$600 for an unlocked cell phone is kind of steep. Here's a cheap alternative (http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.13480~r.34808797). This SIM card unlock attachement runs for $4.26. It works. I've tried it for HTC Fuze, Palm Centro, Samsung BlackJack, Sony Ericsson W310, and some Samsung phone that I cannot recall the model. ]]>Jun 4th 2009 7:03PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/04/pharos-traveller-137-now-available-can-use-both-atandt-and-t-mobi/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/04/pharos-traveller-137-now-available-can-use-both-atandt-and-t-mobi/Jun 4th 2009 5:21PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/04/pharos-traveller-137-now-available-can-use-both-atandt-and-t-mobi/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/04/pharos-traveller-137-now-available-can-use-both-atandt-and-t-mobi/Jun 4th 2009 5:48PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/04/pharos-traveller-137-now-available-can-use-both-atandt-and-t-mobi/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/04/pharos-traveller-137-now-available-can-use-both-atandt-and-t-mobi/
