Is Smartphone doomed? T-Mobile is dropping out...


Is Smartphone doomed? T-Mobile is dropping out...

Postby GreyWolf Ghost » May 22, 2003 @ 12:12am

I have been waiting to see who in Canada picks up Smartphone, and so far only Rogers has plans to add Smartphone. However with the latest hit to Microsoft by T-Mobile, I wonder where the future of smartphone is.............


T-Mobile Drops Smartphone:

Sendo drops Microsoft Smartphone O/S for Symbian Software:

This was going to be the Sendo Z100 with Smartphone O/S ( but it's not to be)

If you order a SmartPhone on eBay then T-Mobile will still program it for service. It's just a SIM card that is put in the phone that has all the information on it anyway. I think this just means that TMobile isn't going to sell SmartPhones.

If you weren't getting a Smartphone you probably wouldn't think that, as the only way the PPC is beat in gaming by the Smartphone is the wireless in it, and even then, it's not going to be great due to bandwidth costs, etc.
