AT&T’s Pantech Slate available now – only 9.9mm in thickness
By Ilinca Nita on 29 Oct 08Pantech Slate C530, first announced by AT&T together with three other new QWERTY phones, is now available for purchase from the largest North American mobile carrier.
Presented as the world’s thinnest handset to feature a full QWERTY keyboard, Pantech Slate can be bought for $49.99, after a $50 mail-in rebate and the signing of a 2-yr contract agreement. Its no commitment price is of $249.99.
The Slate measures 4.2 x 2.5 x 0.39 inches (107 x 63.5 x 9.9 millimeters), so it is, indeed, very slim. Unfortunately, apart from its QWERTY keyboard, the handset doesn’t offer too many features, being an entry-level device.
The full specs of Pantech Slate include:
-
Quad band GSM/GPRS/EDGE connectivity, 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900 MHz
-
2.2 inch TFT display with 176 x 220 pixels and 260K colors
-
Email, IM
-
Web browser, MEdia Net
-
Stereo Bluetooth, but only the 1.2 version
-
20MB of internal memory and no MicroSD card slot
-
1.3 MP camera
-
USB (a USB cable is not included in the package, though)
-
Talk time: up to 3 hours
-
Standby time: up to 10 days
You can buy a Pantech Slate C530 either from AT&T’s stores, or online, if you hit the carrier’s official website.
