The T-Mobile Shadow is getting a smart phone makeover for 2009. The new Shadow will run Windows Mobile 6.1, be HotSpot-enabled for use with T-Mobile Unlimited HotSpot Calling service, and have access to Wi-Fi networks.
The Shadow has a nice balance of entertainment and enterprise features, including a music and video player, pre-loaded multimedia content, a mobile version of Microsoft Office for document viewing and editing, and Microsoft Outlook. The Shadow's 1.6-inch screen, however, is disappointing. I imagine it would be very difficult to review a long document or watch a video on a screen that size.
The HTC-manufactured phone retains the candybar slider design found on its predecessor, but comes in two new colors: White mint and black burgundy. It is quite slim and light, measuring 4.3 by 2.4 by 0.5 inches and weighing 3.9 ounces. The Shadow is will be available in T-Mobile retail stores and online later this month.
Sidekick: The Good News & the Bad News Either way you look at it Microsoft Data Center management did not follow standards or best practices in this failure. In which case it makes me wonder more about the outsourcing of corporate data much less personal data.
