The Pantech... Elvis?

by Chris Ziegler, posted Apr 16th 2008 at 11:01AM

This dual-band CDMA handset with EV-DO just popped up on our FCC radar this morning with the model designation "ELVIS," and while we have no idea what it is, where it's going, or when, we have to admit -- we can kinda see the resemblance between this and The King in his later years. If you catch our drift.

Update: Turns out it's the UTStarcom TXT8010, which has a QWERTY keyboard; no wonder it's so wide. Thanks, everyone!

Looking at the "Atennan Specification" it uses terms like BT and a frequency range of 2400 ~ 2485MHz which is the range for bluetooth. So what every it is, at least has a bluetooth antenna.
