Motorola Morrisson with T-Mobile 3G is at the FCC house
It seems T-Mobile will be the Android carrier in the States. We’ve just spotted the upcoming Motorola Morrisson at the FCC’s website, all in its T-Mobile 3G glory. As we’ve already seen/heard before, it’s the full QWERTY keyboard equipped device with touchscreen, which we hope is of capacitive “kind.” Now, I guess, it’s all about…

A new Nokia flip phone has been spotted while gaining the so-much-needed FCC’s seal of approval. Not much is known, except that it doesn’t smell like an S60 device and that it’s heading to AT&T. Both the carrier’s logo and the fact that its 3G runs on 850 and 1900 MHz bands prove that. I…
