T-Mobile Prepping Windows Mobile Smartphone with VGA Display

T-Mobile has offered a number of different Windows Mobile smartphones over the years, most of which were built by original design manufacturer HTC. Currently, America's fourth largest wireless carrier supports the Dash and the Wing, with another model, the Kaiser, rumored to be coming soon.

You can now add the HTC's Juno to the list, if unconfirmed reports are are correct, according to Brighthand.

Rumor has it T-Mobile will offer Juno as the Shadow.

As a Windows Mobile 6 Standard smartphone, the Shadow won't feature a touch screen. However, it is supposed to be the first Windows Mobile Standard device with a display that sports a 480 x 640 pixel(VGA) resolution. The screen measures 2.6 inches diagonally.

The GSM smartphone (it is going to be coming from T-Mobile after all) is said to also include Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, a 2 megapixel camera, and a 4-way navigation pad with a trackball.

There's 128MB of RAM, 256MB of ROm, a 201MHz processor, and a microSD slot for storage expansion.

The Shadow is supposed to have a BlackBerry Pearl-like SureType keyboard that slides out from the bottom in portrait mode. That means each key of the smartphones keys has more than one letter. Predicative text technology decides which one you meant to press.

Although it is expected T-Mobile will introduce the Shadow soon, it is not known how much it'll cost or exactly when it will ship.

When Shadow does ship, consumers will have the choice of two colors, brown and sage green.
