Pantech C810 in the FCC's loving embrace

by Chris Ziegler posted Apr 20th 2007 at 3:59PM

We're not sure exactly what it is that sparked AT&T's newfound love affair with Pantech, but let's be honest, it works out well for everyone involved: AT&T gets to stock its shelves with a wealth of decent quality, inexpensive handsets (some of which are 3G), and Pantech gets a paycheck and a much-needed boost in its American presence. We've nothing to support our theory that this new C810 is headed to AT&T other than the fact that its model number begins with "C" -- indicative of a Cingular / AT&T launch for every model thus far -- so we're sticking with it until we get word to the contrary. Oh, there's the little fact that it's a WCDMA 850 / 1900 phone, too. Care to shed any light on the sitch, Pantech?

Is this the Ocean for AT&T???
The Helio Ocean model number is PN-810

If it does turn out to be an 0cean-like device, I hope it uses data for IM...it would be the perfect match for MEW1.

It turns out it is a Windoes Mobile 6 smartphone that slides both ways like the Helio Ocean.

Can't wait for this to come out. I just hope AT&T (if that's where it's going) doesn't take too long to release it. My 2yrs are almost up with Sprint and can't wait to switch.
