T-Mobile’s UMA goodies!
There have been rumors of TMobile rolling out UMA sometime in the near future. Looks like some pictures of TMobile’s UMA beta test kits have leaked out recently. The kit appears to consist of a UMA enabled phone (Samsung T709) plus a wireless router (DLink or Linksys). So why the heck are we reporting this on here? That’s no Sidekick 3! Remember that old post about the Sidekick roadmap? Here’s the pic:
Notice the Sidekick 3 with UMA? Does this mean the roadmap was an lucky fake or does it give some validity to it? The release of the Sidekick 3 was pretty close (about 2 months) and we all have heard about the Sidekick 3 Razr. Are we just grapsing at false hope here? What we’re wondering is how they’re going to fit anything else in the device without absolutely killing the battery life.

I had no clue what UMA was either… when i googled it i got this

From what i red ans was able to understand there, UMA seems useless to me. I rather have animated aim icons.

UMA basicaly allows the phone to connect to WIFI hotspots, so anywhere that there is wireless internet, you can browse the internet on your sidekick at broadband speeds. I believe it also allows you to talk through the wifi, although I dont see how it would make the quality better..

its much like the verzion ED-VO network. it offers broadband speed, available threw the network. but since the sidekick still has to send the page request to the network.. and it willl take that time.. is it really worth it tho? i mean its still not gonna be lightning fast. it will load larger pages faster, but one plus is that tmobile can offer services like HBO stuff and weather, news, and music downloads. like V-Cast, so theres a plus. much like cingulars 3G network.

Can the sidekick handle video like HBO and stuff i mean the camera aint all that great but will it be like nicely flowing streaming video?
And also is 3G where you can see each other and talk to at the same time?

well they better give us some kinda upgrade like they did from sk1 to sk2 cause thats ****.
im not paying 400 bucks for another dumb phone that doesnt even work that well.

Yeah, I agree with onward, it’ll be much better if we, people who already have SK3, get an upgrade instead of making us buy another phone; if its that they make a sk3 video with a better resolution screen, then I guess its resonable but if they’re gonna keep the same thing, they should just include it in the OTA

The sidekickrazr will exist,,,,well I’m not 100% sure but a friend of mine has a friend that has it.. She says he works for a distributer that comes straight from tokyo….we r having a bday party and I guess he’s going so I’m gonna be able to see it….. hopefully its not BS…. if its true… ill see if i can take pictures and y’all would be the first ones to know.. The bday is not till the 20th though.. :(…. she told me that the guy said that the only problem with it was that since it was so thin, it overheats a bit

Is the sidekickrazr the same thing as the sidekick 3 but only thin as the razr cause if it is im not waiting for it i’ll just get the sidekick 3…

from what that chick told me, i guess it will be…. i just to wait till the 20th to see if it actually exists….. i think its gona come included with video streaming… bigger bluetooth capacity… to be honest with you…i dont know… like i said, i gotta wait till the 20th to see if its true…either way.. in the roadmap it says its not coming out till Jan 07
