The new T-Mobile myTouch 3G with Google's Android OS, as well as a broad assortment of T-Mobile products and services, are available in more than 4,000 RadioShack stores across the United States.
This Android-based smartphone debuted in T-Mobile stores earlier this month, but an agreement between this carrier and the electronics retailer -- which is in the process of re-branding itself as The Shack -- now brings it to more locations.
Other smartphones available at RadioShack stores include the BlackBerry Curve 8900 and the Samsung Behold.
An overview of the T-Mobile myTouch 3G
This model offers consumers a much slimmer option than this company's first Android model, the T-Mobile G1, by leaving off the built-in keyboard.
It has tablet shape with a 3.2-inch HVGA touchscreen and a trackball on its front. For text input, it depends on a virtual keyboard, which can change orientation automatically from portrait to landscape mode, depending on how it is held.
The Android OS was created by Google, and has strong ties to this company's online services for email, calendar, navigation, and more. Other consumer-friendly features in the myTouch 3G include a multimedia player, built-in 3.2-megapixel camera, and more.
To make full use of these features, this model comes with a GPS receiver and a 4 GB microSD memory card for storing music, videos, and images.
Pricing & Availability
In addition to RadioShack and T-Mobile retail stores, the T-Mobile myTouch 3G can also be found at www.T-MobilemyTouch.com.
This device is selling for $200 with a two-year service agreement.
