Most collaborations and special edition devices come off as contrived ideas that aren't much different from the original device. The myTouch 3G was not your typical special edition device. The design was stellar, the execution was awesome, and judging from its sales, it was wildly successful. We noticed that the myTouch 3G Fender wasn't available for upgrade users a week...

If you're in the market for a myTouch 3G, our advice would be to wait until the myTouch 3G 1.2 becomes official and then decide which one to buy. Even though T-Mobile is going to drop the price of the original myTouch 3G to $99.99 on February 10th, the myTouch 3G 1.2 might be a better option in the long run.

The

The myTouch 3G as we know is getting phased out. But it's not for the rumored myTouch Slide but actually for the myTouch 3G Version 1.2 which adds a 3.5mm headset jack (much needed!). Accessories for the myTouch 3G 1.2 have been hitting stores and

Did the recently released limited edition T-Mobile myTouch 3G Fender really just sell out? Tmonews just received the slide above which specifically states that the myTouch 3G Fender Edition is no longer available to existing customers that want to upgrade...

Our pals at TMoNews have been busy, and they're nailing down some rumored T-Mobile Android devices (some of which we've seen as recently as yesterday), bringing us dates. In a nutshell:

If you think we're only living in a Motorola DROID or Sprint HTC Hero world now, think again. T-Mobile wants to remind you about the T-Mobile myTouch 3G and continues to stress the personalization, available apps, and all around fun factor of the phone through familiar celebrity faces. These commercials are fun to watch if only...

We've seen the Android Dev Phone 1 for quite some time now and it was essentially a T-Mobile G1/HTC Dream with some snazzy graphics on the battery cover. Now, the Android Dev Phone 2 is essentially the myTouch 3G/HTC Magic/Google Ion with the cute Android Robot peering out on the battery cover.

The Android Dev Phone 2 is available for $399 and comes unlocked for use with any GSM carrier. Developers should note that the ADP2 comes with Android 1.6 and not Android 2.0...

Update: Check out the myTouch 3G fender edition in the picture above! We think it turned out quite well!

If you thought T-Mobile would just forget about the myTouch 3G especially since the Motorola CLIQ is coming up, you were wrong. T-Mobile has just announced that they'll be releasing a myTouch 3G Fender Limited Edition that'll pack a 3.5mm headphone jack complete with pre-loaded songs (on a 16gb microSD card). Along with...

You can never say that Oprah doesn't have your back. To celebrate the premiere of Oprah's 24th Season, Oprah and T-Mobile have decided to offer a $100 discount to the T-Mobile myTouch 3G, bringing the total cost of the still-new mobile device to $99. What a steal!

To activate the savings, type in KICKOFF24 in the promo box, the deal will reportedly be valid until September 24th. What're you doing? Go get it!

The T-Mobile myTouch 3G has been rooted. The wonderful folks of XDA developers have already hacked the myTouch 3G and were even thoughtful enough to provide detailed instructions on how to gain root yourself!

As with all rooting methods, if done incorrectly it may brick your device, so please tread carefully when following the instructions. Rooting a phone can be beneficial to those who want to take advantage of the full power of the...

We first heard about the HTC Magic aka the T-Mobile myTouch 3G way back in February at Mobile World Congress. And now finally after waiting half a year and seeing the Magic launch all over the world, the myTouch 3G is available stateside. Go out to your local...

We’re getting some reports that the T-Mobile myTouch 3G has shipped and tracking info has been already sent out to customers who have pre-ordered it. Did any of you guys receive your tracking information and if so, how much longer do you have to wait?

Let us know in the comments!

What makes the T-Mobile myTouch 3G marginally unique, when compared to all the other Magics across the world at least, is T-Mobile's involvement in promoting applications that'll make your Android experience that much better (oh, and the personalization). Luckily, we now know which apps T-Mobile believes as must-downloads since their myTouch "AppPack" has been leaked and

The T-Mobile myTouch 3G isn't exactly new around these parts--we've seen the myTouch 3G as the HTC Magic many moons ago. But as much as you know about the T-Mobile myTouch 3G, it doesn't hurt to learn more. We've got our hands on the leaked Getting Started Guide for the myTouch 3G and though it details much of what we've already known about Android, it'll be incredibly helpful for those who are jumping to Android for the first time. If anything, it's a...

Want to know more about the T-Mobile myTouch 3G and can't wait for today's media event? Well, Tmonews got a heck of a grab: pricing, launch info, and target release dates for the myTouch 3G. And though it's great to finally get the details on the myTouch 3G (a device that should have been released months ago), not all...

The T-Mobile myTouch 3G news has been rolling in and the plans are being set. To recap: T-Mobile is holding an event on July 8th to showcase the myTouch 3G, pre-orders will be available July 8th to July 25th, and an...

T-Mobile just announced a myTouch 3G media event scheduled for July 8th in New York City. The date is notable because that's when T-Mobile will start taking pre-orders for the myTouch 3G. So when July 8th rolls around, don't be surprised when a ton of hands-on pictures pop up!

Because the tech world is filled with so many black and white gadgets, we've been getting a lot of interest regarding the 'Merlot' color of the myTouch 3G and how it'll end up looking. Luckily for us, some in the wild shots of the Merlot myTouch 3G have popped up and it looks like a winner.

The lighting and angles of the pictures aren't the best but the 'Merlot' definitely adds character and is undoubtedly unique. We expect T-Mobile to be...

You can't stop the inevitable. Whenever there's a new gadget to be had, cue the unboxing videos on youtube! The T-Mobile myTouch 3G just received its glory and there are a few nice surprises. The unboxing can actually be called an unzipping because the 'box' that houses the myTouch 3G actually seems to be a 'travel case' that is...

And it is finally official. The T-Mobile myTouch 3G aka HTC Magic aka Google Ion has been formally announced as T-Mobile's Second Android Device with pre-orders starting July 8th and an expected August release date. The myTouch 3G packs a 3.2" HVGA touchscreen, 3.2 megapixel camera, T-Mobile 3G, quadband Edge, WiFi, GPS, Bluetooth (A2DP as well), and of course Android 1.5 Cupcake and your usual Android suite of Google applications.

What...

This is odd. According to T-Mobile UK's twitter account, the Second Android Device on T-Mobile UK will be called the G1 Touch. We thought all along that the Second Android Device (the HTC Magic) was called the MyTouch 3G? Are they going to call it two different names in the US and the UK? Or is the G1 Touch an entirely different device?

...

And the T-Mobile myTouch 3G has been leaked. Well not really. We only got pictures of the T-Mobile myTouch 3G box art (and really, it's as art-sy as it gets) but the myTouch 3G box art confirms what we've previously thought/known: the HTC Magic is going to come to T-Mobile and it's going to be r

Hmm. Reports are speculating that the device we know as the HTC Magic and speculated as the T-Mobile G2 will actually be released as the MyTouch 3G. An odd choice of name, to be sure, but not one without reason: the HTC Magic is a strictly 'touch' device and to differentiate...
