Nokia 3710a, some Motorola (Morrison, perhaps?) get FCC approval for T-Mobile

For T-Mobile USA customers, the FCC slid a couple particularly interesting batches of docs into its vast library in the past week: the Nokia 3710a and a mysterious Motorola. First, the 3710a (pictured) is simply an Americanized version of the 3710 flip introduced a couple months back, offering a 3.2 megapixel cam, Series 40, and a concealed external display in addition to that all-important dose of 3G on T-Mobile's AWS band. The more interesting item, though, might be this Motorola -- as usual Moto has done a terrific job of concealing virtually all useful bits of information about this phone, but we have reason to believe that it could be the Android-powered Morrison since it's got WiFi on board in addition to 3G, Bluetooth, and the usual RF suspects. With Moto's big announcement just around the corner, we wouldn't be surprised.

hmm.. interestingly enough, it looks like that may be a front facing video calling camera below the display.. I checked the users guide, and it does reference to it as being a secondary camera.. and there are mentions of video calling throughout the manual.. I wonder if this will still be there when it launches..

You're right, that IS a Front facing camera. T-Mobile has been interested in introducing true video calling in America and they were rumored to be starting it with the Touch Pro2 but obviously plans fell through for that so maybe this one will be the phone that finally introduces the service.

Although I think once the Feature comes here we'll all use it for a couple weeks then rarely use it much afterwards. Still an Exciting Idea if it did Materialize soon.
