It seems T-Mobile USA have decided on a name for their launch of the HTC Magic, and it’s one of the suggestions the carrier tested out in last month’s survey. The HTC T-Mobile myTouch 3G is the same underlying device as the Magic smartphone Vodafone Europe launched recently, but will go on sale in the US as the follow-up to the T-Mobile G1.
The screenshot above, from T-Mobile’s own inventory system, suggests that three color options will be on the table: black and white, as we’ve already seen, and a merlot (i.e. red) option. Still no word on release date or pricing, however.
The T-Mobile myTouch 3G has a 3.2-inch capacitive touchscreen, 3.2-megapixel camera, WiFi, Bluetooth and 3G HSDPA. It runs the Google Android OS, and differs predominantly from the T-Mobile G1 in that it solely has an on-screen keyboard, rather than a hardware ‘board.

This phone could be a big hit IMHO. I had the chance to play with the phone yesterday and am very impressed with the build quality and feel of the hardware, and even more impressed with the great Android software that accompanies the phone.
