T-Mobile's HTC Dash 3G and Touch Pro2 training kicks off on June 16th

Exclusive June 4, 2009

T-Mobile fans, we’ve got good news and bad news. The good news — internal training on HTC’s Dash 3G (Snap) and Touch Pro2 is set to kick off June 16th on the east coast. In other words, we’re likely very close to seeing both handsets get official. The bad news — training doesn’t wrap up until July 2nd in Baltimore/DC so the rumored July 1st release date for the Dash 3G is pretty much not going to happen. The rumored July 22nd launch for the Pro2 could be on the late side of things however, so it’s not all bad. Our ninja only has access to the east coast training schedule but assuming the rest of the country wraps up around the same time, we could see one or both of these handsets by mid to late June — because June isn’t already jam-packed with sweet handsets launching left and right. Woo!

Thanks, Dominic!

    Man, I was all about the touch pro until I got my cupcake update for the G1. Now I’m re-dedicated to my G1!! How crazy is that?

    this looks fake.

    Um that’s cool….but where’s the TOUR!!?(it had to be done)

  • DigDug

    Not a moment too soon for TP2. I have been TMO customer for 7 years and thus punished with their utter paucity of handheld selection, the brick G1 being the lone exception. If I see one more sidekick released I am going to puke.

    TMO is this || close to losing me if they dont get their dang act together REAL soon and focus on customers other than female teeny boppers.

    @DigDug:

    While I can definitely relate to your feelings of disappointment with regards to the “utter paucity of handheld selection,” you have to give credit to BlackBerry Curve 8900 also. Plus, at least the Sidekick LX 2009 is pretty on par now with other handsets.

    Besides, in case you haven’t noticed, the newest subscribers are “[female] teeny boppers,” and not high-end cellphone connoisseurs.

    Nice. I’m still getting the BlackBerry Driftwood when it launches, but one of these outta hold me over till then.

    I think I’ll finally port my Sprint number to T-Mobile for one of these. Anyday now T-Mobile?

  • DigDug

    @Jeremiah, I agree. TMO is smart to go after that market. The other carriers do as well. But TMOs problem is that there are very few options available for other customers, like me, who have been quite loyal and want a business oriented smart phone.

    Curve 8900 is nice, but not 3G. ATT/VZW/Sprint each have non-teeny bopper options.

    In the end I may move anyway, I am in Manhattan and there is no TMO signal where I work so I may switch just so I can use my cell phone during the day.

    I’m actually curious as to when the driftwood will become available?

  • Kyle Collins

    has the price been nailed down for TMo

  • codered

    @DigDug

    Look for all the new 3G devices that T-Mo is releasing this year. Example Dash 2, Touch, Wing 2, and 3G Curve. If you were smart you would have a 8900 and use the UMA function to ensure a signal in your office through WiFi. Plus no one is trying to get ahold of you and your lonely Friday/Saturday nights.

    Where is the review for the Touch Pro2…didn’t you guys have it “in hand” a few days ago?

    You give a crap ass review of the Pre because you wanted to be the first to do so, but you can’t give us Touch Pro2 review

  • Kumar

    I just got off the phone with a T-Mobile CSR who said that she couldn’t tell me about the new phones coming in August. Then she said late July / August, so it sounds like the July 22nd may still be intact.

    I wonder if there is a 3 to 4 week window for WM6.5 availability…

  • Peter Nguyen

    Zach, what does exactly “training” mean?

    If I am assuming what it means than are people just too stupid to simply know how to use a device? How can people be so tech illiterate?
