It is most certainly going to T-Mobile USA. While Juno is the codename, we haven&rsquo;t got word of the official launch name yet. It&rsquo;s a Windows Mobile based device and has a &quot;consumer friendly interface, most likely HTC&rsquo;s TouchFlo,&quot; says our source. He also goes on to tell us that it will have a QWERTY keyboard, but from the looks of things, is that SureType? T-Mobz should be positioning this phone as an &quot;adult Sidekick&quot; and the phone has a &quot;wow screen and interface.&quot; It is currently a T-Mobile USA exclusive and set for a mid to late October release.&quot;</em></p><p><img alt="" border="1" src="http://images.thoughtsmedia.com/resizer/thumbs/size/500/spt/auto/1189687394.usr3.jpg" /></p><p>The BGR has some information about a new device that's coming to T-Mobile.&nbsp; The image seems to indicate that this is a Smartphone (or Standard) based device.&nbsp; You can easily see the home and back keys which are unique to the standard platform. However, the post indicates that the interface will most likely be HTC'sTouchFlo.&nbsp;The TouchFlo needs a touchscreen, so I really don't think that's going to happen on this device. Perhaps the new interface they say is the same as the one we saw on <a href="http://www.smartphonethoughts.com/news/show/23032/palm-treo-500v-new-carousel-home-screen-menu.html">Palms new Treo 500v</a>?&nbsp; Maybe it's not a Palm interface at all.&nbsp;&nbsp;Either way, this device looks appears to have some sort of SureType-like keyboard on it.&nbsp; It's got my attention.&nbsp; It's going to be hard picking my next device. </p>

THAT'S HOT!</parishilton> :D

How does this compare in size to the Dash? And if it has the TouchFlo interface, then it must be a WM Pro device, right? It doesn't look like it has a touchscreen though... :confused:

No idea about the size. I would guess that it's smaller, but thicker.

As for TouchFlo, I'm sure it doesn't have it. The keys are a dead giveaway when it comes to touch screen or not. So this phone doesn't have a touch screen. I'm guessing whoever said touchFlo saw the new Palm style home screen on this device and thought that it must be TouchFlo. If you didn't know better, then it could be a simple mistake.
