Trimble introduces GPS-equipped Juno SB and Juno SC workforce handsets

Trimble might not be the first mobile manufacturer that comes to mind for average consumers, but those in the construction biz probably have it on speed dial. The outfit has just unleashed a new duo of rugged, field-ready handsets in the Juno series: the GPS-equipped Juno SB and Juno SC. Both units also feature WiFi, Bluetooth, a 3-megapixel camera, 533MHz processor, 128MB of onboard memory, microSDHC slot, 3.5-inch display and a battery good for at least a day of toiling; if you're looking for 3.5G data support, you'll need to select the SC for that. The pair runs on Windows Mobile 6.1 and is available now, though there's no public mention of pricing details.

Is the Shadow set to be T-Mobile's new hot brand?


While we're waiting for the Shadow's official unofficial launch date of October 31st, BGR has served up a couple other sweet little morsels on this lovely little device. The specs are looking decent with Windows Mobile 6 -- sporting some exclusive interface -- WiFi, 2 megapixel camera, OMAP CPU at 201 MHz, 128 MB RAM, and a QVGA screen. According to rumor, the Shadow is set to become T-Mob's next hot brand for those that no longer -- and really, did anybody ever? -- see the Sidekick as chic. Pricing has apparently been set at $149 after $50 rebate on a two year commitment with whispers of an exclusive $9.99 unlimited email plan in the works. The Boy Genius also reports that we could well see a Shadow II in the future, but we'd be happy to simply get our hands on this one first.

T-Mobile Shadow unboxed, still not released


Here it is again, the HTC Juno / Pheobus / Dopod C750 all boxed up in its soon to be announced T-Mobile Shadow branding. A tipster over at The Boy Genius Report claims that it might be sporting a VGA screen like we've already heard and that center-button is actually a scroll-wheel which serves as a 4-way navigation pad. The green and brown colors are said to "look great" with your fall wardrobe while sporting a soft-touch finish around back to keep this slider, sliding in your hand and not off the tabletop. BGR's got a full gallery just beyond the read link.

HTC "Phoebus" hits the FCC, could be the Juno for T-Mobile


Details (other than super-nerdy RF interference specs) are light right now, but an HTC device labeled the "Phoebus" just hit the FCC's website, and a look through the specs reveals what appears to be a GSM 850 / 1900 device, with a 2 megapixel camera. Unfortunately, there's isn't a picture of the front of the device, so you'll have to make do with this sexy shot of a flayed backside while we dig up the real.

Update: Goodness, the back end of this thing certainly bears a striking resemblance to that of the Dopod C750, doesn't it? Looks like this could be the upcoming Juno for T-Mobile.

Dopod C750 and HTC Juno one in the same?


Unless our eyes are being mighty deceitful, IT168's photos of the Dopod (HTC's consumer brand for Asia) C750 sure look an awful lot like the HTC Juno image we've already seen. Granted, there's no way to confirm this suggestion just yet, but it's hard to deny that the two form factors are eerily similar. According to a (very) rough translation, the C750 boasts a 2.6-inch VGA (640 x 480) display, Windows Mobile 6, a microSD expansion slot, USB connectivity and a built-in camera to boot. For those still skeptical, click on through for a few more looks.

HTC Juno headed to T-Mobile?

Not a lot of dirt on this one just yet, but BoyGeniusReport has it that the HTC "Juno" should be headed to T-Mobile, and soon. Of note, the Juno moniker is apparently just a codename that could change upon official launch, but this sexy handset will purportedly include Windows Mobile 6, a "consumer friendly interface (TouchFlo?)," and a whole lot of wow-factor in the display. Regrettably, that's practically all of the details available at the moment, but considering that it should hit T-Mobile exclusively late next month, official word shouldn't be too far behind.
