Specs

T-Mobile's myTouch has a 600Mhz TI processor, and 288MB RAM.

Keyboard

myTouch 3G's software keyboard is easy to get used to. The downside to it is that the "keys" are set too close together, making you more prone to typing errors, and generally make typing quite difficult.

Home Screen

This T-Mobile 3G smartphone, which features the Android OS 1.5 update, also has widgets on its homescreen. However, myTouch 3G has media-player, calendar, analog-clock, search and picture-frame widgets. You can even pull up the full menu from the home screen.

Multitasking

myTouch 3G, uses pop up notifications to alert you to app updates, IM, etc. All you have to do is simply tap and pull down these notifications menu.

Calendar

T-Mobile's 3G smartphone naturally supports Google Calendare and allows you to set up reminders that pop up on your status bar through the notification system.

So this really doesn't look anything like that Bigfoot we saw a little while ago, but we can sorta see the familial resemblance if we squint really (really, really) hard. According to Boy Genius Report, what we're looking at here is allegedly Samsung's Android-powered Bigfoot for T-Mobile, said to be attacking the high end of the carrier's smartphone line thanks to a 3-inch capacitive AMOLED display, full QWERTY, 3 megapixel camera, and naturally, HSDPA. If we had to guess, this is probably a newer version of the same product concept that we'd seen in that roadmap a few weeks back -- Sammy probably started with its Beat DJ (or an Ocean 2) and worked backwards from there to get to the retail version they wanted to launch. We're told it'll launch "like, really soon," so would-be G1 or myTouch 3G buyers might want to hold on for a hot second.
