Hi,

I am contemplating of buying a new T-Mobile pocket pc phone. I am living in Lexington, Kentucky. I was wondering if I could get suggestions from existing users about the quality of voice and data reception in this area. I would like to use the GPRS network for data connectivity. Moreover, I read in one of the older messages that there is no add-on keyboard available yet. I am tired of using the stylus. Is there any convienient keyboard for this phone yet? Thanks in advance.

That is exactly what I feared. No news about the release. But is the XDA keyboard and accessories compatible with the T-Mobile PPC? I intend to call T-Mobile customer support and find out the keyboard addons they have. I dont see any put up in thier web site.

Hey ppl,

There's an update on keyboard available. I called up 1-800-T-MOBILE. That is the phone purchase service of T-Mobile. They had a foldable keyboard available for $159.99. They do not have a picture of it put up in their web site yet. But I presume it is similar to some of the other xda foldable keyboards.

What about the thumbboard? T-mobile originally said October in early press releases.

Hard to use a foldable keyboard when you're not sitting still...
