AT&T Fuze showing carrier branding

We’re closing in on AT&T’s launch window for the HTC Touch Pro, rebranded as the AT&T Fuze, and it seems that AT&T is dressing up their touchscreen darling with a nice, fat carrier logo. It was apparently too much to ask that AT&T stop short of defiling the beautifully clean face of the HTC Touch Pro with their own logo.

AT&T Inc. announced today it has deployed assisted GPS technology (A-GPS) within its wireless network to enhance existing and planned location-based services (LBS) used with A-GPS capable devices.

The company also announced it will launch two new navigation applications in the coming weeks, MapQuest Navigator and AAA Mobile navigator. The new applications add to the company's AT&T Navigator and AT&T Navigator Global Edition offerings, underscoring its focus on providing superior navigation tools and customer choice.

Other than the Motorola Q Global, AT&T officially announced the HTC Touch Pro PDA Phone as the HTC FUZE.

It seems AT&T will be enhancing its low-end offering with LG’s low-end CP250. According to the details found at FCC’s website, this entry-level clamshell won’t excite many people. There’s a dual-band 850/1900 MHz GSM/EDGE radio on board, stereo Bluetooth support, two screens (external and internal) and a VGA camera.

It's happening all over again. A few months ago we saw AT&T offering their iPhone customers free access to all 17,000 nationwide AT&T WiFi HotSpot, only to abruptly take the page offline.

 AT&T users who don't like Apple's products will be glad to know Samsung i907 has been spotted while passing the FCC hurdle. We're not sure about all the details, but it seems it's the i900 Omnia iPhone-killa' with the right 3G frequencies for AT&T. That translates into a camera with high-megapixel count, WiFi, Bluetooth, Windows Mobile and that cool TouchWiz user interface.

So okay we’ve had enough of the iPhone 3G for once. With AT&T dealing with wonky iPhone 3G activations, Sprint is doing something on the more conservative — but desirable side and releasing the Palm Treo 800w at $249.00 (after rebates and qualifying two year service & data plan).

Here’s the complete data sheet for the Palm Treo 800w package for Sprint.

Boy Genius Report has gotten their hands on a legit-looking internal email detailing AT&T's iPhone 3G protocols. It directly refutes all of my earlier pie-in-the-sky wishful thinking that you could buy an iPhone from AT&T, not activate it, and then get dinged on your credit card 30 days later for the full price of the phone. The jist: iPhone 3Gs will be activated at AT&T stores, end of story. The only question is whether or not Apple stores will force you to activate in store. By the wording of the AT&T email, it sounds like they're not entirely counting on it, so that may still be an option.

Not to be outdone by ROM leaks and unofficial copies of its Windows Mobile 6.1 update for HTC TyTn II handsets, HTC has gone official with their HTC TyTn II ROM-boosting update.

AT&T has created a multi-cultural print campaign, featuring painted hands that represent cultural and historic traits of Egypt, China and Japan. We're not sure what's exactly the idea behind the ads — except maybe to prove AT&T is all about diversity — but we love the way they look, nevertheless. BBDO is behind the eye-catching campaign and I guess we should ask them what's the point… Anyway, few more images follow after the jump. Enjoy!

Coming up with a plan for people with hearing and speech impediments was just a thing waiting to happen. AT&T are offering a Text Accessibility Plan which includes unlimited text messaging, unlimited data usage (internet and e-mail), visual voice-mail and $.40 per minute pay-per-use voice. All that for only $40/month after service activation.
