T-Mobile's Samsung t229 launches, looks at us funny
If you're going cross-eyed looking at the front of T-Mobile's new t229 flip from Samsung, you're not the only one -- we seriously thought it was some weird mistake in the press materials before we realized that Samsung was just trying to mix things up a bit by skewing the secondary display off to the side. We're not so sure how we feel about that, but with a VGA camera, 160 x 128 screen, and an utter lack of WiFi or 3G to keep us interested, odds are we'll never have to worry about it too much. The bright red flip can be yours now for a song -- $29.99 with contract, to be exact -- just remember not to stare directly at it.
T-Mobile's latest pair of cheap Samsungs: meet the T229 and T339
We don't know much of anything about these two, but as phoneArena points out, their model numbers suggest that they'll shore up T-Mobile's bottom shelf (so to speak -- we don't think T-Mobile stores really have a bottom shelf, per se). The T229 and T339 look the part, too, though we suppose the squarish T339 has a sorta stately, uptight appearance that we think could pass for a slightly higher-end device. No word on a release date or anything like that, but with any luck, we'll find out a thing or two about 'em at CTIA next week.
