A new Pantech device has been spotted while gaining the so much needed FCC approval in order to sell in the U.S. market. It’s the QWERTY keyboard-equipped Pantech P9020, which comes with a 3G radio that sings along AT&T’s bands (850/1900 MHz).
The user manual is also on the FCC’s website and from there we learn this texter-friendly device supports AT&T Music and AT&T Navigator — the latter means there’s a GPS on board. Rest of the specs (aside from the slide-out QWERTY keyboard) include a 2.8-inch QVGA touchscreen, 2-megapixel camera, Bluetooth, email client, and a microSD memory card slot.
We’ve no idea when will AT&T go all official with the P9020, but the phone seems ready for the prime time, meaning we’ll most likely see it unveiled during the first quarter of next year. CES?
