Just when we all thought we could sit back and catch our breath after scooping T-Mobile's
Dash deets,
rebranding, and
myFaves launch, here comes a barrage of information suggesting that the carrier's not about to let its product lineup rest on its laurels. Most of the information we have circulates around upcoming RAZRs -- yes, we said "RAZR," not
"KRZR" -- with a Nokia thrown in for good measure. We
already suspected a tweaked V3i going by the new moniker "V3t" would be coming shortly, and it now seems the V3t will be available in a variety of flavors. Besides the stock model, two additional types will be made available with permanently etched tattoos (inspired by
Miami Ink's Ami James, apparently) called "Dragon" and "Cherry Blossom." If a tattooed V3t isn't exclusive enough for you, step up to the
Dolce & Gabbana V3i, which will confusingly go without the new V3t model name of its stablemates. All of the new variants should drop in retail locations on or around October 30. If RAZRs aren't your thing, keep an eye out for the Nokia 6133 on October 9. The 6133 is essentially an Americanized
6131, rocking Bluetooth and a pushbutton flip feature that's sure to earn a few "oohs" and "aahs" from friends.

any idea if the 6133 will be the color scheme pictured above, or will it be the black/silver version that's prolific online?

Considering TMobile is releasing the V3i I assume their target audience does not include people who are tech savvy...the v3i is ancient by most standards.
Why can't they want carry the Nokia E50 or N73.
I really want TMobile to carry better phones so that I can tell Cingular to go f*ck themselves...
just gimme any of the new -zrs on cingular...
The Dragon and Cherry Blossom RAZR's will NOT be V3t's, sorry kids, if you want flashy looking V3's AND the capability to do anything more than your plain looking V3, get the D&G. The prettied up RAZR's are plain jane on the inside.
