3 UK kept their word when they announced the INQ Mini 3G handset and two months later they finally released the device. Now it looks like another member of this series is prepared for take-off. That’s the INQ Chat 3G and it will seemingly incorporate a QWERTY keyboard but we don’t have the exact release date yet.

Till then we can take a better look at its younger brother INQ Mini 3G.

You have two possibilities to purchase this product. One option is via Pay As You Go and the cost involved is £60 (around $96) and of course you’ll get it outright or you can have it for free on a special £15 per month plan called “Internet Texter” that packs free voicemail, unlimited Internet and unlimited 3-to-3 calls.

In case you didn’t know, INQ Mini 3G is a candybar device with a few smart specs: HSDPA connectivity, Twitter, Skype and Facebook plus iTunes. The handset also packs a QVGA display, a 2 megapixel camera and an internal memory of 100MB.

AT&T in partnership with Pantech just revealed two phone models, Reveal and Impact, that are shown in the pictures below. The first one, Pantech Reveal shows a pretty simple look with a medium-sized display on a front side dominated by the numerical keyboard, but we must not forget that there’s a sliding QWERTY keyboard beneath.

The second device, Pantech Impact packs a black front side with a numerical surface and a secondary monochrome display. At a pad press away there are some haptic features that give you the touch sensation of real physical keys.

On the other hand, by opening the handset you will discover a new device with full QWERTY keyboard and stereo speakers plus a large color screen. If you want this big screen handset, ideal for full HTML browsing, you will be able to purchase it next month for under $80.

Rogers in partnership with RIM has finally launched a new BlackBerry device called Curve 8520. The handset is available in any Rogers location for $99.99 with a 3-year contract of at least $ 45 per month.

The specifications are pretty unimpressive as this smartphone packs a 3.5mm headset jack, a 2 megapixel camera, Wi-Fi with UMA and a 320×240 display plus a full QWERTY keyboard. 256MB of RAM memory are also on board and the tasks are performed by a 512 MHz processor.

The device comes only in the classical black colour but there are hopes for a new violet shade.

T-Mobile didn’t put myTouch 3G to rest, as we all thought and there’s a new version of it is getting ready for launch at Christmas time. Some new minor eatures were added in hope of attracting more customers than the now-old version.

The manufacturer added a 3.5mm headphone jack, but what strikes you immediately is its fake wood case that resembles maybe too much the Japanese concept phones Touch Wood and Ply. This handset is created in partnership with the guitar specialists at Fender, this being the reason of the new design.

The device comes in limited edition and it features preloaded music and a 16GB microSD card, the exact release date and price still being unknown.

Verizon has just announced a partnership with Verizon, ideal for  launching Android handsets but they have omitted to mention exactly what phone models they were talking about. After this it was obvious that rumours would appear and Motorola Droid, also called Sholes or Tao is one of the suspects.

Maybe to agitate the public even more, Verizon and Google let loose a picture showing their officials holding Android devices. The handset to the right might be Motorola Droid while the device on the left resembles HTC Hero, sold by Sprint.

According to BGR, Hero will be indeed on the Verizon’s list next month but apparently under a different name. HTC Predator might be the one but only time will tell.

T-Mobile might bring to Europe what was designed to be the supreme Windows Mobile device. We’re talking about HTC Touch HD2, also known as HTC Leo. The full specifications list has just been published on the XDA-Developers community and it shows that this is indeed a hot smartphone.

Its main appeal factors are its 1 GHz Snapdragon CPU, an impressive 4.3 inch capacitive touchscreen with multitouch, that can easily make the leap to the WinMo 7, full HSDPA capabilities that provide a speed up to 7.2 Mbps for downlink, Bluetooth 2.1, an integrated FM radio and a 3.5mm headphone jack plus a 5 megapixel camera with dual LED flash.

This handset is dual band 900/2100 MHz 3G capable so it will probably have the same destiny as its predecessor, Touch HD,  leaving North America to Europe. The word on the street says that T-Mobile UK might join O2 to make an offer for it.

CoolSmartPhone came with some kind of a commercial picture that strengthens the assumption of T-Mobile UK being indeed the lucky operator. It appears that the commercial name will be “Touch HD2″ after all. Too bad T-Mobile USA doesn’t take an example from its European cousins.

SKT is the lucky carrier that will get to sell the Samsung SCH B900 phone in South Korea, as the manufacturer just made the official announce of this Haptic series handset. A mysterious inscription is present on the battery’s cover saying “CHAK” that can probably mean an important feature or maybe just a South Korean trade mark.

The specifications are pretty heavy, the handset being equipped with a 3 megapixel camera, GPS, geotagging capabilities, a 3 inch TFT touchscreen and Bluetooth plus T-DMB. B900 also packs the TouchWiz User Interface together with a music player.

You should know that this cellphone comes in three shades: pink, white and black and is available for $511 via the  South-Korean mobile carrier mentioned before.
