Here’s a great news for those of you out there who own a Pantech C810 Duo dual slider with AT&T carrier: you can now download an upgrade including Windows Mobile 6.1 Standard operating system. But you should understand one thing very well: this upgrade is for AT&T customers only. If AT&T isn’t your service provider, do not update your product with this software! More than that, after updating the Pantech Duo with this software, the product will only work with AT&T service.

The company warns users to back-up all of their Duo handsets with their AT&T Mobile Backup available on their official website, because the update will erase all data from their devices. So you are asked to ensure that all critical information has been backed up before applying this update. All user data (including contacts, photos, ringtones and videos) can be backed up by using Microsoft Sync which was included in your installation disc.



Among the list of exciting upgrades to the user experience for both business and consumer customers, Pantech Duo owners now enjoy a more efficient use of key phone features. The improvements include: customizable home screen, threaded text messaging, Web, Support for Enterprise Device Management and Security, productivity, Bluetooth, Mobile Banking, the addition of Windows Mobile 6.1.



Sliding panels streamline access to frequently-used phone features, allowing for picture and video viewing, listening to music and coordinating calendar appointments. On the other hand, SMS text messages are threaded together into a single conversation, so users can view the entire conversation as they type. As far as the Web is concerned, zoom in and out capabilities provide enhanced Web page viewing. Advanced enterprise device management support features sophisticated security settings and simplified access for IT managers. You also have the ability to cut, copy and paste text, auto-fill options for email addresses, select multiple messages in bulk, you can also easily manipulate contacts, calendar and tasks features. When it comes to the Bluetooth, there is a seamless pairing of headset to device without pairing code. With Mobile Banking, you can perform secure banking transactions with many of the nation’s largest banks directly from your handset.



But probably the most important improvement is the addition of Windows Mobile 6.1 to the Pantech duo, “which is another example of Pantech’s commitment to improving the mobile experience for our customers”, said Sandy Gomo, Director of Product Management, Pantech Wireless, Inc. “Availability of this update online is part of Pantech’s strategy to protect the investment of loyal Pantech product users. Out continued relationship with AT&T and Microsoft brings customers fun and productive tools to enhance their everyday lives”.

This updater will function correctly under Windows 2000 & XP. Other requirements include: (1) USB port, fully charged battery for your phone (standard or extended) and USB data cable which was included in the retail box.

The new Pantech duo is now available in the US exclusively from AT&T for as low as $79.99. For those who already have their devices, they can download and have more information about the new update on pantechusa.com.
