AT&T 2008 Smartphone Roadmap Leaked

Believe it or not, AT&T actually does have other smartphones coming this year besides the iPhone 3G and BlackBerry Bold. Four sequel-y Windows Mobile phones all slated for winter, and 6.1 updates for existing ones. Besides the Pantech Tech Duo 2, there's the BlackJack 3 (with a better cam and a little faster hardware), Tilt 2 (Update: BGR says Tilt 2 is probably the Touch Pro), and another unnamed Sammy, possibly the Omnia. There's also a "non-QWERTY" LG phone of some sort and a Wi-Fi version of the Curve (8320). Since these are all smartphones, we're guessing there's another consumer roadmap. [Gear Diary]

Latest by vagrant: @DoPeY5007: My understanding was the Xperia X1 was due to release in September. I figure we'll see it before year's end. I also presume AT&T would carry it. While the Touch Pro is nice, it's not quite the X1. more »

HTC TyTN II Gets Windows Mobile 6.1 Update, AT&T Tilt Soon

HTC's TyTN II, the Euro/whitebox version of AT&T's Tilt, just officially got updated to Windows Mobile 6.1. While you could put the update on a Tilt if you were seriously jonesing for WinMo 6.1, it would wipe out all the AT&T stuff and give you a regular HTC phone. Besides, it'll start rolling out to branded phones like the Tilt soon, probably in a matter of weeks. [HTC]

Android Beta Running on AT&T Tilt

The Windows Mobile hackers over at XDA forums seem to have gotten Android working on an AT&T Tilt (HTC TyTN II), meaning that eventually you might be able to get an Android phone working without actually buying a particularly "Android" phone. The stability is pretty nonexistent, but you can see that it actually works insofar as you can load it up on top of Windows Mobile and do stuff with it. Entirely replacing the phone with Android's ROM is another story, but if anyone can do it, the nerdlingers on XDA can. [XDA Developers via WM Experts via Boy Genius]

HTC Says Software Fix is Coming For Lousy Video Drivers

Users have been complaining about HTC's undercooked video drivers for the TyTN II, the touch and the Mogul for a while—only to get various reassurances that everything is OK in response—but HTC's finally released a statement saying that a fix is coming. They say that the video acceleration will be supported in the future, and will be included in software upgrades for current devices. No date yet, but hit the jump to see things in their words.

Latest by n/a: After reading the previous posts, especially bigredabrahan 01/19/08 I also agree. The one thing I want to add is the big performance increase in bluetooth. Using both a motorola S-9 and a motorola S-805 headphone before the upgrade really sucked more »

AT&T Tilt to Get Bug Fixes, Maybe Stop Sucking Today

A ROM update (version 1.62.502.0) for AT&T's Tilt—basically the best Windows Mobile phone around, hardcore bugginess aside—is supposedly rolling out today that'll fix a handful of the critters, such as device freezing during a password unlock, busted Bluetooth headset functions, tones for the slide-out keyboard and occasionally buggy touch screenage.

Want to get an AT&T Tilt? Apparently it's only available (as of right now) on AT&T's business site. That explains why you can't find it normally. [AT&T via Crunchgear]

AT&T Tilt is Official

The AT&T Tilt (8925) is official. This ship was leakier than a sunken pirate ship, the successor to the 8525 is finally here. The important specs: Windows Mobile 6, Mobile Office, 2.8-inch screen, GPS w/ TeleNav, Push to Talk, standard IM program, slide-out and fold-up keyboard, glorious HTC-style QWERTY keys, Wi-Fi, 3-megapixel camera, Push Email, 3G HSDPA—but no TouchFlo on the top level like the Touch (seems like they're saving that for "Touch" designated phones). $299 with two-year contract starting Friday October 5.

AT&T Tilt Spotted In The Wild

A HoFo user got his hands on an AT&T Tilt, also known as an HTC Kaiser or the HTC TyTN II, and took a few shots of its exterior hardware buttons and its fairly standard Windows Mobile 6 UI. From the shots, you can't tell whether the phone has the TouchFlo topscreen UI like the standard HTC TyTN II does, but the default WM6 home screen along with Push-To-Talk is still there. The same HoFo user says that an October 1 launch date "seems right", but we'll have to wait until next week to be sure. In the meantime, hold off on any Windows Mobile phone purchases to see how this one pans out. [Howard Forums]

AT&T Tilt Gets Further Specs, Price, Launch Frame

The AT&T Tilt (also known as HTC Kaiser or AT&T 8925) has further firmed up for a September launch by way of a few leaked details from AT&T. The phone will be $349 with a two-year voice and data plan, push-to-talk, Wi-Fi, 2.8-inch tilting screen, push email, Microsoft Office for WM6, as well as AT&T Mobile Music and Media Net. There will be two versions, the 8925 with camera and the 8900 without camera, but both of them will be sans front video cam, even though AT&T's Video Share video calling service is live. There should be a formal announcement on this soon. [Boy Genius]
