More details on Samsung's t819 3G slider for T-Mobile


It looks like T-Mobile had a change of heart about the coloring of its next 3G device -- Samsung's t819 slider -- after it hit the FCC
recently, changing from a rather lovely medium blue to "coffee brown."
That got us to thinking: does a phone have to go back through the FCC
when it changes color? Probably not; in fact, we can think of plenty of
examples to the contrary. That seems a little odd considering that
color formulations could almost certainly affect SAR ratings, but
whatevs -- point is, Boy Genius Report has a little more info on the
midrange slider now. Besides the aforementioned color change, we now
know that T-Mobile expects to start offloading this bad boy come
January. Whether the carrier will actually start to admit that its 3G
phones are 3G by then... well, that's another story entirely.
