More Smartphones Spotted on T-Mobile's Roadmap

A new leaked shot of T-Mobile's roadmap unveils some more details on the devices that the wireless carrier plans to add to its offering during the ongoing year. Although the leaked document might not be the most accurate source of information, it still has some nice tidbits to show on the future smartphones, feature phones and other products that the operator's subscribers will soon be able to acquire.

The T-Mobile roadmap document that leaked on Engadget shows that the carrier plans to launch the myTouch 3G as soon as August 5, though we might see the Android handset coming to the shelves earlier than that. In addition, the Dash 3G (the Snap in T-Mobile's offering) should come to the market on July 1, while also being shipped to retail partners on June 26.

Another HTC handset that T-Mobile will soon release is the Touch Pro2, which we already learned that should come on July 22 as the successor of Wing. In addition, the carrier should also launch the BlackBerry Gemini on its airwaves, though it is uncertain whether this will be the market name of the phone. The device should come in two colors, black and frost, yet no release date has been unveiled.

In the feature phone area, the operator is expected to release devices like the Samsung t749 Highlight, spotted before as the Spark, and which should come to the market on July 15 in two colors, ”fire” and “ice,” and sporting 3G capabilities. Another Samsung phone heading towards T-Mobile on July 15 is the Samsung t559 Comeback, which should hit the shelves in frost / silver / cherry and pearl / white / plum, featuring 3G capabilities and support for myFaves 2.0.

The roadmap also shows a Samsung t469 Gravity 2, which should come on August 5 as a replacement for the Gravity, sporting a QWERTY keypad and two colors, berry mauve and metallic pumpkin. The Samsung t819 should be launched on September 2 as the t659 Scarlett, also sporting 3G.

Moving forth, T-Mobile should also release a mid-range music phone, the Nokia 5130 XpressMusic, which is expected to come in black / red and pearl white / aqua. Another handset is expected to come from Huawei under the name of Volcano, and should land on November 11. The last feature phones showed on the roadmap are from Sony Ericsson, namely the CS8, an 8.1-megapixel sliding behemoth that lands on August 20, and Elle, expected for October 28.
