Pantech C150 and LG Trax now on AT&T


As expected, AT&T has officially added a couple to its stable -- one on the midrange and one at the very bottom. The LG Trax -- once known as the CU575 -- has gotten plenty of press recently as the anticipated replacement for the CU500, offering stereo Bluetooth, a 1.3 megapixel camera, stereo Bluetooth, HSDPA, and a cool external touch strip for music control. The Pantech C150, meanwhile, looks like a great candybar for the price (free, that is) considering that it still manages to rock a VGA cam and Bluetooth support, and we're digging the pure white. Grab both now for $130 and $0 on contract, respectively.

AT&T launching LG CU575 "Trax" HSDPA musicphone later today


With those last minute bugs now apparently eradicated, LG has officially announced plans to deliver their 3G CU575 "Trax" clamshell to AT&T. Touting 850/1900MHz HSDPA 3.6Mbps-capable downloads and quad-band GSM, this flip fancies itself a part-time media player with the inclusion of a Touch Pad bar and up to 4GB of microSD expansion for your AAC, MP3, and WMA music files. Still no word from AT&T but we expect the announcement later today with all the pricing detail you crave.

Update: The joint press release is finally out: available August 14th for $130 after mail-in rebate and two-year contract.

Last-minute bug holding up LG Trax launch?

Anyone worried that AT&T might actually manage to get the LG CU575 "Trax" out the door today can probably put those fears to rest now; it seems a software issue has cropped up on test units that is preventing DRM-enabled music from playing under certain circumstances. Wasn't a similar issue rumored to have held up the Nokia N75 for a while? Sheesh. Anyhoo, no word yet on when this thing might get fixed and relaunched, but we'll have our ear to the ground.
