Can anybody tell me: if I buy the non-contract version from an AT&T store, will it bu unlicked for use with other SIMS/carriers? If I buy one from AT&T and need to get it unlocked, any suggestion for doing this in NYC?

Its the coolest. Got one today. I can tell you this. Its reasonably priced (not close to what has been mentioned thus far)

battery life is good considering all that it does. Having a spare battery and/or car charger would be smart.

and when u see all that it does you’ll want to use ur iphone as a door stopper.

I have more info, i just can’t share it yet.

Okay Guys, please don’t come out with another date if you are not a 100% sure, I mean come on just keep it real, beside I don’t know why people like boyG don’t have any such imformation on when is it going to be hitting at&t. hey if I were HTC, I would pushed to xmax, you know more people would be like hey I want one…so what you guys say to that? would you want it for Xmax?

Does anyone know of another release date. I am in my Warranty period and I don’t want the treo 750. I would like to use a yukky phone and save the money for the new one!

Thanks

BGR drops the bomb repeating a vague internet rumor that is now proven wrong.

All those of you that bet against at&t based on their previous TyTN release record win.

Actually the only reason that tmo’s plans may be cheaper is bc they dont have coverage to use as many features….

Is the Tilt still on for a Sept 3rd release? I asked a AT&T Store Guy on Sunday and he never heard of it

Does anyone know if the AT&T Tilt will work in Japan?

Can you buy a unlocked phone directly from ATT? I want this phone, but 800 bucks!?

@javisan23

No, it will come like the pics, the one with the clock and shortcut tabs is the HTC Rom, apparently it can be downloaded though.

One question: If I buy the phone at my at&t store, will it come with the cool homescreen with the big clocks and shortcut tabs?

Hi,
I broke my Palm Treo 650 2 months ago and have been looking at the Kaiser since. I have yet to see any negatives with this phone other then the price. (Considering it’s an unreleased phone at this point). One thing I am uncertain of, is this a quad band or tri band phone?
Thanks,
Phil

On the last picture that shows the comm Manager.

On the far bottom on the right, there is a picture that show a globe and a computer. What is that picture all about and what does it mean?

So how do I get that Instant Messaging app that shows on the Today Screen for my 8525 or my Treo 750?

By: Randy

Damn, this looks hot! Too bad though the Tilt is so large. I really like the Blackjack for it’s size. I just wish the BJ had Wifi like it’s European Twin….

Does this mean Jeff B. won’t post “Kaiser….” on every post? I for one, am going to miss that.

BG,
Good to know, I haven’t much experience with Sammy phones but the 3125 and 8525 I spent time with were extremely nice. The guy who owned it had to beg for it back. It’s hard resist the HTC lure.

pretty sure it still has the vga video camera on the face and the full camera on the back. vga is for video conferencing. Unlock will work for Tmo but not the 3G that is has built-in, different frequency than tmo.

I have been looking at getting this since i saw the first stories on here, and it has yet to disappoint. BG, you might have just sold me on it, are you going to drop your iphone for this?

By: Jeff B.

Jeff B. — Fri, 17 Aug 2007 03:02:02 +0000

Well…I know what will replace my Blackjack…

I am new to the cellular world so please excuse if this sounds silly.

Can some one answer me this? What kind of data service quality would I get on t mobile with this phone? I know they are not 3g but they do have GPRS

I have pre ordered one unlocked and like t mobile call quality here in the bay area(they provide my work cell) and as some one here pointed out, their prices are so much better.

Thanks in advance.
