T-Mobile customers interested in upgrading their phones can go today in any T-Mobile store and look for the two new handsets the company has launched. These are the new HTC Shadow and the Nokia 7510 flip phone.

T-Mobile seems to like being first at stuff so this HTC Shadow will be the first Windows Mobile handset ready to support HotSpot calls over WiFi.

T-Mobile’s Shadow might not be the most interesting smartphone for you to enjoy this year but it can be an alternative to everything else the carrier has to offer. The Shadow 2009 could do justice to its predecessor. The phone is expected to arrive on January 28th but we have no idea how much it will cost yet.

Here’s what you can expect from the Shadow 2009, and if you think we’ve omitted the 3G support, well we didn’t. The Shadow 2009 simply doesn’t have it:

• Wi-Fi – including @Home (Hotspot Enabled)
• Large, vibrant 2.6″ screen with reflective surface
• 20 key slide out keyboard with spin wheel navigation
• Large battery capacity
• Windows Mobile 6.1
• myFaves 1.5 W
• work and personal e-mail
• Music and video multimedia player
• Instant messaging
• Stereo Bluetooth
• Mini USB SD expandable memory slot (4GB max)
• Speakerphone
• Bluetooth 2.0
• Audio postcard
• Mp3 Hi-Fi ringers
• HTML Web browsing
• Quad-band world phone
• Picture messaging
• Text messaging
• EDGE/GPRS
• t-zones/ web2go
• T-Mobile address book
• Mobile Office and OneNote
• Enhanced device help

After announcing the HTC Dream aka the G1, T-Mobile is ready to launch one more HTC device. HTC Shadow 2 is the logical successor of the Shadow.

Shadow 2 will be the first handset to come with Windows Mobile 6.1 with UMA capabilities and T-Mobile is set to launch it on October 15. As long as you’re going to sign a new contract you’ll get it for $149.99 after some mail-in rebate. Hopefully we’ll get more specs by then. In the mean time I’ll let you dream about this baby.
