U.S. Cellular has quietly started offering the Alcatel ONE TOUCH Premiere few days ago. However, it was only today (late yesterday actually) that we caught a press release announcing the new device and I guess we have the bad PR timing to blame for this.
Anyway, Alcatel’s baby is a low-end Android smartphone with a full QWERTY keyboard located beneath a 2.8-inch QVGA touchscreen. We’ve no idea which CPU it uses but judging by the rest of the specs, I would guess it has a single-core one, clocked at 600-800 Mhz. In addition, the ONE TOUCH Premiere also sports a 2-megapixel camera on the back, 3G (EV-DO) and Wi-Fi connectivity, Bluetooth, GPS and a microSD memory card slot. U.S. Cellular is selling it for $29.99 after $50 mail-in rebate and with a new two-year contract. You can check it out from this page at U.S. Cellular’s website…

The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
