Pantech c810 dual-sliding Windows Mobile 6.0 smartphone to hit AT&T

If you’re a fan of the Helio Ocean’s two-way sliding, keypad/QWERTY keyboard configuration, you’ll love this. Boy Genius reports that the Pantech (the same company that makes the Helio Ocean, by the way) is bringing their Pantech c810 to AT&T (NYSE: T) in Q4 of this year. The dual-sliding smartphone looks and works much like the Helio Ocean, but will be rocking a Windows Mobile 6.0 OS, 1.3 megapixel camera, microSD card slot and 3G(!). That means all you WinMo fans out there can get your dual-sliding fix on a wireless-broadband handset.
We’re excited for this dual-slider to hit AT&T. The Helio Ocean is a fantastic concept, only held back by it’s lack of power – the WM6 packin’, 3G-enabled Pantech c810 is just the ticket!
Look for this thing to drop in Q4 at an estimated price point of $249.99 with 2-year contract.

Pantech makes the Helio Ocean, and the AT&T Duo.
And they have made phones better than the Ocean. (Not that that was a hard task.)
@whatvick?
No, neither phones are made by AT&T.
They are both manufactured by Pantceh.
AT&T are two completely different companies, and have different networks.
