AT&T and Pantech launched in the US the new Impact mobile phone, which is first announced in early October. The side-flip Impact has a haptic touchpad and a small screen outside. Flip open of the phone reveals the QWERTY keyboard and a larger color display.
Pantech’s Impact supports A-GPS and AT&T Navigator service for voice-guided, turn-by-turn directions in real time. The handset supports 3G and gets a full HTML browser. The Impact is available for $99.99 after mail-in rebate with 2-year contract.

It looks like the AT&T branded Curve 8520 dummy units have started to arrive in some stores. The new device is ready for AT&T and was stated to be arriving "in the coming weeks", but no exact date just yet. We've seen this in the past over and over with dummy units and accessories popping up just a few days before the actual device is released. So if you've been waiting on this one, you may not have much longer to go.

Man, the loot you can uncover when you go snooping around spec pages. That most ambitious of Sony Ericsson projects, the XPERIA X10, is still a long way from being released, but already we can narrow down the list of potential US carriers to just one: AT&T. The guys over at Phandroid were the first to spot the newly added UMTS frequency specs for the phone, and the available 800/850/1900/2100 bands fit only AT&T's 3G network. That's gonna be a bitter pill to swallow if you were looking for something like (or better than) an iPhone, but were put off by the wireless provider. Then again, with pre-order prices for unlocked X10s showing up at $999 in some places, maybe you can just look at our lukewarm hands-on and convince yourself this phone ain't worth it anyway

AT&T has just pumped out a new OS for the BlackBerry Bold 9000. I know, I know, this isn’t 5.0, but at least AT&T is doing their best here to keep up with the joneses. This latest update brings you up to OS 4.6.0.304, and you can grab it from the BlackBerry download site.
As always, be sure to backup your device and take all necessary precautions before you proceed. I will not be held responsible for any bad things that happen during your upgrade[Via: BerryReview]

When you're rolling out a new 7.2Mbps upgrade to your network, it naturally helps if you've got some compliant hardware in the stable — so to that end, AT&T has announced its USBConnect Lightning from Sierra Wireless today. Apart from 7.2Mbps downlink capability, the new model's little more than a run-of-the-mill USB stick so there's not a lot to say about it, though it features a trick swiveling USB connector that should make the thing more likely to work with unusual (and unusually tight) port configurations. It'll be available on November 22 for free after rebate on contract, just in time for service launches in Charlotte, Chicago, Dallas, Houston, Los Angeles and Miami expected by the end of the year.
