There were some rumors at the end of last year about the fact that T-Mobile was planning to bring a new handset to join the family of Windows Mobile-based devices, which consisted of only two members, the T-Mobile Shadow and the T-Mobile Wing. The third one was expected to be release in the beginning of this year, more precisely on January 28, and it was said to be baptized under the name of (and now imagine the drums beating) T-Mobile Shadow II. Oh, God, what a surprise!



The device is already available on the market, being sold exclusively by T-Mo USA, as we’ve all been promised. Another great thing is that, being manufactured by HTC, the new T-Mobile Shadow cell phone is indeed equipped with the Windows Mobile 6.1 operating system. But the novelty doesn’t end here: in addition, this is the first device to work with Windows Mobile which supports a popular T-Mobile service, known under the name of Unlimited HotSpot calling.



The new Shadow isn’t different from its predecessor (which, by the way, isn’t commercialized anymore), so the features it comes equipped with include: a sliding QWERTY keyboard, quad-band GSM connectivity (850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900 MHz), a QVGA display, a 2 megapixel camera, Wi-Fi and Stereo Bluetooth connectivity.



Measuring 2.1 x 4.1 x 0.6 inches and weighing approximately 5.3 ounces, the phone provides up to 7 hours of talk time and up to 7 days of stand-by time.

Available in two color versions: black burgundy and white mint, the T-Mobile Shadow cell phone can be purchased from T-Mo USA for $199 (after $50 mail-in rebate), with the condition of signing a two-year contract agreement.
