Now here’s something that is sure to give T-Mobile some bad press — The carrier has recently announced that due to a server failure personal data users may have had on their Sidekicks “has almost certainly been lost”.

Of course, they are in the process of attempting to recover this data but judging by the announcement there doesn’t seem like a very good chance they will be able to.

What will T-Mobile do to remedy this situation? Let’s wait and find out.

T-Mobile has a brand new project ready for its current and future customers. Dubbed as Project Dark or Project Black, T-Mobile’s new initiative is very secret. That doesn’t mean we don’t have some hot stuff for you. It looks like T-Mobile is getting ready to roll out its very own 21Mbps HSPA network, launch a new $50 Everything Unlimited plan and announce a few hot new phones like the BlackBerry Bold 2 and the Nokia N900. That will all happen at once and T-Mobile should make everything official by the end of October. In the mean time we hear T-Mobile is training the staff for the upcoming changes and the carrier isn’t prepared to confirm anything just yet.

RIM’s newest BlackBerry, the 9700 also known as the Onyx or the Bold 2 is coming to U.S. customers in the following weeks from both T-Mobile and AT&T. What about Canadian the consumer you ask? Well it looks like Rogers Wireless is going to bring the Bold 2 to Canada starting with October 26. It’s being speculated that the 9700 will be available for $299 with a new three-year contract but as long as we don’t have the actual press release to back that up, we can’t tell you anything for sure. What do you say folks? Are you ready for the new Bold in town?

It’s probably too late for RIM to launch these white smartphones right here. Instead of the Bold and the Curve 8520 you could very well choose a Bold 2 or a Storm 2. However the white versions will be also available at some point in the very near future. The white Bold 9000 will be available from AT&T starting October 18 while the white Curve 8520 should already be available in T-Mobile stores.

There are no prices available for the white Bold but the white Curve will cost $129.99 after a $170 instant discount and with a new contract. Anyone excited about this angelic BlackBerry smartphones?

The next Bold version, also known as the BlackBerry 9700 Onyx is apparently coming from two U.S. carriers this month. Both T-Mobile and AT&T will launch the Bold 2 on, or around October 21. The phone will be available in the following weeks although there are no details regarding prices from neither AT&T nor T-Mobile. The Bold has been, and still is, one of the most popular phones launched by RIM so far which means that we’re probably going to love the Bold 2 as well. What’s the next phone that you’re most likely to buy? The Bold 2 or the Storm 2?

T-Mobile has announced the addition of two new phones that will be added to their selling list, more specifically the Tap and Nokia 3711.

The Nokia 3711 can be considered a normal phone, with one goodie which is the inclusion of GPS with Nokia Maps. It also comes with a 2-megapixel camera, and it should be released in the upcoming weeks.

As for the Tap, it is a touchscreen cellphone available in two colors - berry and blue - and boasts GPS, stereo blutooth, and a 2-megapixel camera as well. Unfortunately there are no exact release dates, and no information about the price.

If you’re a fan of touchscreens, Google’s Android and guitars then boy does T-Mobile have a device for you — A partnership between T-Mobile and Fender was recently made known that will bring the myTouch 3G Fender Limited Edition to the carrier later this year.

Not much has changed hardware wise but the Fender Limited Edition adds a 3.5mm headphone jack along with woodgrain finish. In addition to that you will be given a 16GB microSD card with some preloaded music.

No word on price yet but we’ll let you know as soon as we find out.

It looks like Motorola fans over the pond will be able to enjoy the company’s first Android phone earlier than everyone else. The DEXT is available already in the UK from Orange so go get it while it’s hot. The phone will be available for free if you select a 2-year contract of at least £34.26 per month. For that monthly tariff you will get 900 any network voice minutes, unlimited SMS messages, Orange Maps and anytime Internet browsing.

On comparison, the CLIQ will be available from T-Mobile USA for pre-order on October 19 for $199.99 on contract. Will the CLIQ/DEXT be a hit phone? Do you intend to purchase it?

Here’s a great idea coming from T-Mobile that might make you consider leaving AT&T or Verizon Wireless and start buying BlackBerry phones. T-Mobile is willing to let BlackBerry phone owners make calls over WiFi networks. The only condition is for these BlackBerry phones to have been purchased by a company and distributed to its employees. That’s right, T-Mobile’s newest offer will be available to corporations only.

How it all works? It’s actually very simple. Employees will be able to make WiFi calls while at work which will significantly reduce cell phone costs for the employer. Whenever they leave the office space and the local WiFi network, the calls will automatically switch to T-Mobile’s network. Too bad this brilliant idea doesn’t apply to regular consumers and regular phones!

After announcing the coming of the Nokia 6350 the other day, T-Mobile adds another Nokia phone to its roster with the Nokia 2330. The Nokia 2330 will be paired with T-Mobile plans, presumably cheap ones.

The Nokia 2330 is not a new handset in the market. It came out in 2008 and boasts of features such as a VGA camera, dual-band and a 32 MB internal memory. The Nokia 2330 is set to be offered to customers in the coming weeks but pricing has yet to be announced. Just to give you an idea, the Nokia 2330 carries a MSRP of €50 in Europe.

T-Mobile has announced the arrival of the T-Mobile Pulse at UK shores, being offered via contract and pre-pay. The phone is available now at Pay As You Go (PAYG) for £176.16 or for free if you get it with an 18-month contract that will cost you a monthly subscription of £27.50.

The T-Mobile Pulse is from Huawei and features a 3.5” touch screen, GPS, and a 3.2 megapixel camera with auto focus among others. This low cost Android phone also comes with a tweaked home screen and new theme and 5 panes.

You all know the drill folks! If you want a hot Android phone from T-Mobile you will have to patiently wait before you can pre-order it and then you’ll have to patiently wait for it some more until you actually get it.

Motorola’s CLIQ is the hot Android in question and in about 19 days from now you will be able to get pre-order it. The CLIQ should be available for $199 with a two-year contract which isn’t exactly the price we heard about a few weeks ago. The phone is certainly worth buying and you have plenty of time to decide whether you desperately want it or you can pass on it while waiting for something hotter. And if you do pre-order it, don’t expect to get it sooner than November!

Don’t look so surprised by that number! Windows Mobile 6.5 is coming and it looks like there are quite a few phone makers ready to roll phone capable or running Microsoft’s newest OS. And while we’re definitely thrilled to see that concept tablet, the Courier already, we can’t say we’re similarly interested in Windows Mobile 6.5. The OS is clearly a transition platform from the old Windows Mobile 6 to the future Windows Mobile 7.

Nonetheless manufacturers out there are ready to launch Windows Mobile 6.5 phones! Those 30 new handsets capable of running Microsoft latest OS will be made by HTC, Samsung, LG, Sony Ericsson, Acer, Toshiba and HP. The phones will be released by the end of the year and we know a few carriers are definitely interested: AT&T, Sprint, Verizon Wireless, Orange, T-Mobile, Vodafone, NTT DoCoMo, Softbank Mobile, SKT, Telestra and Telus.

Here’s something that should not come as a surprise whatsoever — Recent reports suggest that T-Mobile is currently negotiating a deal with MetroPCS and Clearwire that will effectively expand their 4G network to a broader market.

This goes along with the fact that Sprint too is looking to expand their 4G network as a negotiation with Clearwire which they hold a 51% stake in.

Unfortunately we have no other information regarding the expansion but more is sure to be made known at some point in the near future.

While AT&T is upgrading its 3G network to 7.2Mbps and while Rogers or T-Mobile are deploying 21Mbps HSPA+ networks, Huawei is working on something even bigger. It’s not LTE as you’d suspect is 56Mbps HSPA+ which should be available sometime next year in Beijing. The most interesting part is that Huawei is claiming that its partners will simply have to get a software upgrade in order to upgrade their networks. Could 56Mbps HSPA+ be that easy to deploy? That’s definitely a bold move from Huawei and its carrier partners should be very happy to hear such news. We’ll still want to see some more proof before we get too excited about such possibilities. Let’s see if other carriers, and I won’t name any names just yet, are going to be ready to offer similar theoretical speeds next year!

I bet you were not expecting T-Mobile to be the first carrier in the USA to deploy a 21Mbps HSPA+ network. While AT&T is working on theoretical speeds of 7.2Mbps, T-Mobile has gone ahead and deployed HSPA+ in Philadelphia. T-Mobile has twenty cell towers which will handle HSPA+ over Philadelphia but T-Mobile plans to add even more markets in the following year. It looks like HSPA+ will be T-Mo’s transition network from 3G to LTE so don’t get alarmed if you live in Philly and you’re not able to connect to that HSPA+ network at the moment. The top speed is theoretical for now and you’ll need some decent gadgets capable of handling such technology anyway before jumping to any conclusions.

I’m sure that by now every T-Mobile devoted fan is aware of the fact that the BlackBerry 9700 and the Motorola Cliq are going to be released at some point in the near future. What nobody really knows are the launch dates for these new phones. According to inside sources it looks like November 11 is the day to remember. Both phones are going to come out on that day so you’d better get your financial affairs in order if you’re interested in getting one. According to previous rumors and leaks, the Cliq will be available free of charge with a new T-Mobile contract but there’s no info on how much the 9700 will cost. Now that you know when these brand new phones are coming you should make up your mind. What is it going to be? The newest Moto phone or the latest Berry from RIM?

The opportunity to save on buying a new mobile device such as a Blackberry may be somewhat stalled at times. And one main reason seen for this is the price for getting a new one. But if the tweets made by T-Mobile is accurate enough, you may just get a big break. Apparently there are reports that T-Mobile will be giving consumers up to a $50 off if they trade-in their old “working” phones and get a brand new Blackberry Curve.

There seems to be some confusion on what actual phones are included in this promotion. In fact, it seems that the promotion only offers a Blackberry Curve 8520. That was until T-Mobile posted a lot of current curve models tied up with it. But one thing is for sure, you will get a $50 off. So if you are aching to get a new Blackberry, here is your chance so I suggest you grab it!

T-Mobile has decided to pick up a new Nokia phone for its customers. Unfortunately for smartphone lovers, this particular handset will not suffice. The 5130 XpressMusic is the newest addition to T-Mobile’s lineup and the phone is a music-oriented, entry-level device. T-Mobile will sell it for just $29.99 after a $20 mail-in rebate but you’d have to get a mandatory 2-year contract.

Besides the obvious music-related features like external controls and music player support, the 5130 will definitely not surprise you when it comes to specs. You’ll have a 2-megapixel camera to play with, stereo Bluetooth, microSD support and a choice of crazy color combo between black/red and pear white/aqua. So if the phone is not for you, we would definitely understand!
