thats the only thing, i'm very particular, i dont really like nokia, se, or moto(i actually despise moto). if i get a unlocked phone, i'm getting the HTC Touch Cruise. But i really want to get a t-mobile brnaded phone cause i'm lazy and i dont want to have to configure things, and i'm cheap so its with a T-Mobile phone.

I appreciate your feedback though man, still looking for a good T-Mobile branded phone that will come out soon.

well since beggars cant be choosers the 6263 is getting really good reviews. Might I ask why you dont like Nokia?

Yeah, mean they are good phones, but they have always felt cheap to me, LG, and SE too. Also, more people i know have had problems with Nokia phones and SE phones than the phones I use like Samsung (still cheap but better quality), this is also based on experience working in the mobile industry, those were the most commonly returned cell phones we sold.

I'm not saying i would never own one, but it would not be in my top choices.

I have played with the 6263 and it seems to be built very well so you could consider that. I have a Nokia N73 and configuring it to get on the internet is very easy.

I've worked in the wireless industry before and had a phone for a loooong time. I'm not a noob, I'm very particular with the phones I choose for myself.

The phone you keep suggesting has nice features, but its not a phone I would ever want.

Well i have been hearing that T-Mobile might be getting sony phones soon. they have an aggrement to build out the new 3g network this year and i would have to think some phone might be on the way.

Nokia, well i have seen a few pics on the fcc site of some new ones something like an s60 and some candy bars. a few flips and some new wifi phones too.

Moto? nothing...

Samsung, there are a few in the pipe line too.

Htc, a new upgrade to the shaddow is on the way and a new unnamed htc for us.

Black berry 9000 series is on the way. the name might change but its online as the 9xxx series.

Awesome info man thank you! Do you know what quarter they will be released? I know this is a stretch but do you know what updates the shadow is getting?
...

As far as i know the updated Shadow only will be adding the uma or Hotspot at Home service. There is a rumor that it will have our 3g service too since it should be up and running by Feb-April area. I'll keep ya updated...

I had a shadow and i think if they do an update it needs to have:

-3G
-A tighter scroll wheel
-More theme options (the download-able custom ones don't always function the same)
-Unlock only on the slide out keypad(my phone used to unlock itself too easily and call people)
-BETTER BATTERY LIFE!
-Open customization! Would dominate the market for sure.
-Faster processor and more memory, it was kind of ridiculous that just running the phone with no apps took up 35% of the memory.

The Shadow is a brand name, just like the sidekick... so there will be more Shadows phones in the future.

as for the unlock only on the slide out keypad, it already does that. you just have to change the option, and more themes were added with the update.

I never saw the unlock only on slide option in the settings so if you could give a path it would be awesome. And when I say open customization, I mean Full access to customize themes, icons, menu options, fonts, everything and it would be great to have it included in the windows sync disc, I know this will never happen but you have to admit, it would be a killer idea. with that I would even be willing to pay $15 for an official version.
