T-Mobile UK have announced that they’re preparing to offer the HTC Touch2 and HTC HD2, though it seems that someone in their web team hasn’t been keeping up with the rumor-mill. Both Windows Phones are listed as coming in November, but the HD2 is illustrated with an image of the Touch HD and said to come with a 3.8-inch display and access to the Android Market.

Sony Ericsson and T-Mobile have teamed up to announce a new exclusive handset called the Equinox that will hit officially on the 28 of October. The device is a 3G clamshell phone with a cool design that offers "pulsating night effects" to allow users to tell when they get a call or text.
Remember T-Mobile Project Dark and the leaked shots purporting to be new price plans for the US carrier? Well, now there’s official confirmation of the new contract and non-contract packages, hoping to lure those looking only for heavy upfront subsidies to a non-contract plan with equipment payments by installments. The new T-Mobile Even More and Even More Plus plans kick off at $59 and $49 respectively, the former offering the more traditional device subsidy along with a two-year agreement, while the latter does without both the subsidy and the contract.
T-Mobile’s Project Dark still has the rumor-gibbons babbling, and so we’re pleased to see what look like hard numbers to go along with the speculation. According to TmoNews, you’re looking at leaked price plan details for T-Mobile USA’s upcoming tariff refresh, which detail a number of new contract and non-contract plans all of which have free nationwide T-Mobile-to-T-Mobile calling and free nights/weekends.
T-Mobile are offering a fuel-cell portable power pack as an accessory for their cellphone range, one of the first mainstream fuel-cell applications targeted at everyday consumers. The Medis 24/7 Xtreme Portable Power Solution runs on sealed cartridges of sodium borohydride, and can offer 20 Watt-hours from a single cartridge.
Each cell lasts up to 18 months unused, and is activated merely by squeezing it and slotting it into the charger device. Once activated, the cell should last for up to 3 months, though Medis recommend using it within six weeks.
I am sure there are some of you Blackberry addicts out there are frothing at the mouth for more information about the Bold 9700 that we have already heard will hit T-Mobile on November 11. T-Mobile officially announced today that the Bold 9700 would be available on its network in time for the holiday season. However, the company did not confirm the rumored November 11 launch date.
If you are a T-Mobile customer and you have been waiting to get your hands on the slick Motorola CLIQ with MOTOBLUR today is the day. The device is now available on the T-Mobile network. The rest of us not on T-Mobile will have to wait until November 2 to get the CLIQ in our grubby little mitts.
T-Mobile’s mysterious plan-in-process Project Dark has been churning the rumor bins for a while now, and this seemingly leaked promo image is doing nothing to challenge that. An unusually coy TmoNews received the shot from an unnamed source, and it seems to suggest that – Project Dark or otherwise – a new, unlimited plan is in the works.
Sidekick owners, you can stop mentally-spending that $100 gift-card T-Mobile promised. In a new statement updated to the Sidekick forums, Microsoft’s Roz Ho – VP of premium mobile experiences – has confirmed that the company has recovered “most, if not all, customer data for those Sidekick customers whose data was affected by the recent outage.” She also confirms that the restored files will begin to feed back into devices starting with contacts; reports yesterday suggested that the process had already happened.
The debacle that was and is the loss of all Sidekick users’ contacts data continues with a new wrinkle. Gizmodo reports that at least a few Sidekick users have suddenly had their contacts returned according to posts on the T-Mobile forums.
