I am in shock.. but a good one. As you know we discovered a new Android phone coming to T-Mobile, that was the Samsung T959. Now the big surprise.Thanks to howaredchui, we could see that they got, what it seams, a T-Mobile version of the Samsung Galaxy S. Under the sharing setting, we can see a field called Media Server Name and with the model number SGH-T959. As you well know all the Samsung models starting with T and ending with 9 will end it up on T-Mobile’s line up.
Another clue we can notice is, under the main menu, there are some features just used by T-Mobile, like Help, with the magenta question mark, Amazon MP3 store, TeleNav, My account shortcut to web2go to see your account balance, and the most clear one, TMO contact, an application that you can upload and download your contacts direct to you phone.
As you can see, there are many clues that indicate the Samsung Galaxy S will hit T-Mobile’s stores soon.
Powered by Android 2.1, the smartphone boasts a 4-inch Super AMOLED display, a 1GHz processor , a 5-megapixel camera with HD video capture and is the first phone with Samsung’s new Smart Life user interface. Other features include FM radio, Bluetooth 3.0 digital compass, WiFi b/n, GPS, 16GB of memory and microSD card slot.

A little less than a year after introducing its second Android phone, the HTC-built myTouch 3G, T-Mobile unveils a new flavor of the handset, complete with a roomy slide-out QWERTY keypad, a trio of custom widgets, and an upgraded camera. The device slides in at 15mm thick and features a 3.4″ HVGA screen, Android 2.1, 5 megapixel camera, Wi-Fi, 3G, and even a Genius button powered by Dragon Dictation. It will come in 3 colors, red, white and black.
Given that the myTouch 3G is on sale for $149 with a two-year T-Mobile contract, I’d guess that the Slide will arrive somewhere around $149 to $199 (hopefully closer to the lower end of the scale).
Specifications:
The myTouch 3G Slide runs on Android 2.1, the latest version of the Android OS, and while it lacks HTC’s handy “Sense” user interface (good for quick access to your latest e-mails, social-networking updates and weather), the Slide boasts a trio of custom widgets: Genius Button (not to be confused with Genius on iTunes), which fires up voice commands at the touch of a button; myModes, which lets you create a series of discrete modes for, say, home and work (complete with specific themes, widgets and apps, all of which can be set to activate according to the time of day or even your location); and Faves Gallery, which collects 20 of your favorite contacts and their latest texts, e-mails and social-networking updates in a single home-screen widget.

Finally T-Mobile unleash another Android phone, this time by Garmin. Just few months ago, we mentioned that FCC approved a new Asustek phone with AWS bands. Now its finally here. T-Mobile just launched the new Garminfone today. This new Android phone will feature 3MP camera with autofocus microSD expansion up to 32GB, WiFi, and full HSPA, Android 1.6 maybe, a 3.5-inch HVGA display. It’ll come bundled with a charging dash / windshield mount when it launches “later this Spring.” Follow the break for the full press release. It will come in 2 colors, gray and black.
Because maps are on the phone, rather than streamed over the Web, the navigation system will work even in areas where there is no wireless signal, using GPS. There won’t be additional service fees for the Garmin service but the company will charge for additional maps, and more frequent updates of the U.S. map than the one annual free update provided with the phone.
