Yeah, T-Mobile didn’t exactly get sexy with naming the myTouch 3G refresh, but hey, with a name so horrible from the beginning, we guess we can’t ask for much. While the name stays the same, the refreshed myTouch 3G definitely brings the slowly-aging device up a notch or two. Here’s a recap of the specifications for the new model:
- 3.5mm headset jack and updated music player
- More memory, with 288MB of RAM and an included 8GB microSD card
- Swype soft keyboard
- Preloaded applications including Barcode Scanner, Music Player, myAccount and Visual Voicemail
The new device is available starting today in T-Mobile locations as well as telesales for $149.99 with a new two year activation, and comes in both white and black color options. Merlot never had a chance.
