(REFRESH FOR UPDATES!)
THIS CONCLUDES THE LIVE BLOG OR LIVE UPDATES OR WHATEVER YOU WANT TO CALL THEM!
Stay tuned all day to phandroid for complete coverage of the MyTouch 3G
11:44 – wow it is embarrassing how far behind I am! I just finished writing up a post about MyTouch 3G Accessories and now I’m headed downstairs to check out the phone.
11:34 – 100% You will have a HUGE advertising campaign that will launch in August. Silent on details of TV/Print and Online but it IS coming.
11:31 – “Skin It” is creating the custom shells for the phone. They first partnered with T-Mobile for the Sidekick.
11:28 – DIRECT BILL options, making it “frictionless” to purchase stuff from the App Market. It won’t REPLACE existing options just add another option. Pretty sweet!
11:26 – sorry this is slow I’m doing 23542332 things at once! We’re about to hear some new apps that come with MyTouch.
11:21 – showing a musician using Qik who also Tweets stuff about his band using MyTouch. They get a Facebook and ringtone reference in while saying “The iPhone Can’t Do That”… can’t marketers stop comparing their device to the iPhone? It’s going the wrong direction if you ask me. You want to differentiate but mentioning iPhone only makes you compare directly and brings out the similarities. (If you ask me)
11:17 – We’re seeing a promo video – “MyTouch – 100% You” is the slogan
11:16 – BTW I’m recording this on video and will post it as soon as I can afterwards!
11:15 – “MyTouch 3G is the first real big bet we’re making on Android for 2009” and they say more Android devices will come this year.
11:09 – they just started!
11:08 – counting down the minutes kids
11:04 – these seats will soon be occupied and the demonstration going!
11:01am – It’s not a surprise but it is certainly a pleasure: I’m at the T-Mobile MyTouch 3G event in NYC and the program is about to start in 10 minutes. I’ll follow along with information as quickly as possible!
Rob – Thx for the “real-time” updates and the fact that you managed to get the press release posted also warms our hearts!
