Pantech unveiled its C630 candybar handset to the media on Thursday evening and the handset is scheduled to be offered by provider AT&T starting in December. Â An AT&T spokesperson at the event did confirm the C630 will run on Symbian, however. Now, we already knew the device was on the way.
Spec sheets and press materials also are not yet available. But the C630 displayed last night is a candybar phone which features that include (but aren’t necessarily limited to) Advanced GSM (AGSM), a 1.3 megapixel camera, a speakerphone, Bluetooth, an MP3 music player, a microSD slot, Internet Yellow Pages, e-mail, instant messaging, and AT&T’s Video Exchange and Video Sharing. The C630 will cost in the range of only about $49 to $50 with a service plan, in comparison to the $199.99 price of both Apple’s iPhone 3G and LG’s forthcoming Windows Mobile Incite, said Frank Fay, a company spokesperson, speaking with BetaNews at the Pepcom-sponsored press event.
