    Filed under: Handsets , Samsung , Alltel , ATT , T-Mobile , Verizon Wireless , Windows Mobile , GSM , EDGE , EV-DO , HSDPA , UMTS , CDMA We know about most of these handsets, but it's always fun to get a few final views before they're officially announced and made available, isn't it? phoneArena has what must be the complete (or close to it) lineup from Samsung for the US market in the next few months all in one place, showing the a777 and a867 Eternity for AT&T, the Behold for T-Mobile, and the i770 Saga , i910 Omnia , and u810 Reknown for Verizon. New here is the R600 Hue II for Alltel, a boring-ass little flip that should be available in a handful of colors. There are a couple goodies in here -- the a867, i770, and i910 should all get some blood flowing, depending on how you roll. Which one's your favorite?

  • Alltel tried to buy Sprint, T-Mobile and AT&T as a public company

    Filed under: Alltel , ATT , Sprint , T-Mobile , Verizon Wireless , GSM , EDGE , EV-DO , HSDPA , CDMA , Misc Unless you've been camped out under a Rhode Island-sized boulder for the past few weeks, chances are you know that Verizon has announced its intentions to acquire Alltel . During a recent interview with CEO Scott Ford, Talk Business host Roby Brock was able to get quite a few talking points out of the exec that didn't involve the most recent transaction . More specifically, Mr. Ford noted that prior to Alltel becoming a private company , it had "tried to buy Sprint three times, tried to buy AT&T Wireless [and] tried to buy T-Mobile." He continued by saying that "some of those times it went with partners, [while] some of those times it didn't." Essentially, Alltel was "doing everything it could to get to a national platform." Believe it or not, those quotes really are just the tip of the iceberg, but the full spill is entirely too detailed for this space. If you're curious to know what might have been, break out the reading glasses and hit the link below. [Via mocoNews ] Read | Permalink | Email this | Comments

  • LG Vu, AX565 quietly break cover at CES

    Filed under: Handsets , LG , Alltel , ATT , GSM , EDGE , EV-DO , HSDPA , UMTS , CDMA Phone Scoop appears to have caught LG a little unprepared with a pair of handsets that haven't been officially outed, and as far as we can tell, aren't on the docket to be announced this week at CES. First up, the AX565 clamshell is allegedly Alltel-bound (and we'd tend to agree from the silkscreened label on the front and all) and features an unusual square touchpad for external music control, stereo Bluetooth, microSD expansion, and a 1.3 megapixel camera. Now, onto the moneymaker: the mighty Vu , a Prada-esque handset that should usher in AT&T's MediaFLO age when it gets around to launching in the next few months. We'll keep you posted if we get any more intel on either of these suckers. Read | Permalink | Email this | Linking Blogs | Comments
