Pantech C820 (Pantech Duo 2) spotted at FCC on its way to AT&T

Fans of the no-frills, messaging-oriented Pantech Duo with that dual-sliding hybrid keyboard/keypad setup will be glad to hear that the AT&T (NYSE: T) Pantech Duo 2 is almost ready to prime-time. The Pantech C820 has been spotted hanging out at the FCC with a refreshed, shiny exterior and cleaner, sleeker lines. And, that means we’ll likely see the Pantech C820 dropping on AT&T’s network as the AT&T Pantech Duo II in short order.
The Pantech C820 Duo 2 features the same dual-sliding keyboard/keypad setup that makes for quickness in 
numeric or QWERTY typing. The Pantech C820 Duo II runs Windows Mobile 6.1 Standard (no touchscreen here, folks), features a 3G data connection, and sports a 2 megapixel camera. Unfortunately, the Pantech C820 Duo II mirrors its predecessor with its lack of a WiFi connection and GPS receiver.
Still, the Pantech Duo 2’s expectedly entry-level price-tag should make it an appealing messaging handset for text-message-crazy QWERTY lovers.

whem does the pantechc820 get released?
I just purchased the Pantech Matrix from ATT and on my rebate form good for now until May 20th, is listed the Pantech Matrix Pro C820. So my guess is very soon
This phone is actually called the Pantech Matrix Pro…not the Duo 2…it is like the Duo yes, but it’s not the name…as stated at the Mobile World Congress 2009 in Barcelona.
Hello!! It is cheap and very perfect but i live in Greece. Janelle can you know if they send to Greece? Please..
