We're still waiting for it to grace AT&T's pages, but it looks like the WinMo 6 Standard Pantech Duo C810 is now available in most AT&T retail stores for $249 with two-year contract. Phonescoop has the full spec rundown and video hands-on of AT&T's new quad-band GSM / HSDPA dual-sliding QWERTY. Besides that rough, chubby look the phone also sports more than a few operational oddities including a mysterious "turbo mode" and the fact that sliding the phone open and shut does not answer or hang-up your calls. Fat? Sure, but still trimmer than the Helio Ocean also manufactured by Pantech. Check the video review after the break.[Via Pocketnow]

My at&t store had it in this weekend. I played with both this and the tilt. This is quicker then the tilt but the tilt has a nicer keyboard. The two aren't even direct comeptitors but still I had to say it. Personally my iphone kills em both style and function wise. Much quicker. It had a solid feel to it though. No bad.

Hey every one, just to let you all know. I am an employee for at&t and i personally own the duo. There is a setting you can change to get the phone to answer when it is slid open. Settings - phone - call options - check any key answer. This will in turn answer calls when the slide is opened. I was unable to find an option however to end calls by sliding the slide shut. I hope this helps.
