AT&T Service
This AT&T phone can handle high-speed data connectivity via AT&T's 3G mobile broadband data network, which is available in most major metropolitan areas. The AT&T 3G network uses the UMTS 850/1900 network (also known as WCDMA), making it possible to enjoy a variety of feature-rich wireless multimedia services with speeds up to 3.6 Mbps. It also gives AT&T the advantage of offering simultaneous voice and data services.

In areas where the 3G network is not available, you'll continue to receive service on the AT&T EDGE network, which offers availability in more than 13,000 US cities and along some 40,000 miles of major highways. Providing average data speeds between 75-135Kbps, it's fast enough to support a wide range of advanced data services, including video and music clips, full picture and video messaging, high-speed color Internet access, and email on the go.

With 3G connectivity, you'll be able to access AT&T's Cellular Video (CV) service and the Internet while on the go. Cellular Video features content from CNN, The Weather Channel, iFilm, Comedy Central and exclusive premium content from HBO and much more. And you get access to AT&T Mobile Music, which enables you to buy tracks while on the, access the Napster subscription music service, stream music video, discover what's playing with Music ID song-recognition software, and find out what's hot with The Buzz music news portal. (A MEdia Max subscription bundle is recommended for accessing AT&T's Internet, video, and music services.)

The phone has a built-in web browser for MEdia Net downloads and mobile web browsing. AT&T's MEdia Net service enables you to receive and send emails, read news headlines, get weather updates, download games and ringtones, and more.

Phone Features
The Pantech Duo intuitively and stylishly transitions between your communication and computing needs with the dual sliding keyboards. When holding the Duo in a wide, landscape orientation, the QWERTY keyboard slides open for writing e-mail and editing Microsoft Word and Excel documents. And the drop-down numeric keypad is ideal for sending quick texts and dialing on the run. A flip of the wrist initiates either keyboard to address any mobile need. The Duo's lean design houses both keypads and a large 2.2-inch color screen in a device that measures just 0.83 inches thick, 4 inches tall, and 2 inches wide.

With Microsoft Office Mobile you can leave your laptop behind. Synchronize with your computer and Mobile Outlook provides up-to-the-minute management of your calendar, contacts and e-mail. Windows Mobile 6 also delivers the ability to view e-mail messages in their original rich HTML format with live links to Web sites and Microsoft Office SharePoint sites, which means that text and images are displayed as they would be on a Windows PC. View and edit Excel, Word and PowerPoint documents.

In addition to having the ability to take the office on the road, the Pantech duo includes the AT&T Xpress Mail push e-mail service--with support for most popular POP3/IMAP personal e-mail services--instant messaging capabilities, and the ability to send and receive multimedia messages with color videos and photos. You'll also be able to use Windows Media Player to store and access pictures, videos and music.

Handsfree communication is easy thanks to the integrated Bluetooth wireless connectivity (version 1.2), which includes profiles for communication headset, handsfree car kits, and audio/video remote control. With the A2DP Bluetooth profile, you can stream your music to a pair of compatible Bluetooth stereo headphones.

Simple, intuitive controls allow for easy access to any of features of the Pantech Duo. Use the 5-way navigation key to locate and select options appearing on the display. Instantly answer and end calls or initiate a call from your contact list, all without using the concealed numeric keypad or QWERTY keyboard. Other features include:

  • Real music ringers from MP3, WMA, and WAV files and 64-chord polyphonic tones
  • XT9 predictive text entry

5 out of 5 stars Smartphone - best yet! (non-touch)   July 25, 2008
First, I'm amazed at all the non sequitur comments, i.e. I bought mine on ebay and can't get warranty replacements from AT&T. DUH! Or that the battery life doesn't last as long as my pocket watch. If you're going to have a cellphone for at least a year, then do your homework and look at the mfg. specs. Check the review sites, compare, know what you're getting. If the device doesn't live-up to those expectations, then complain at will. And as one comment mentioned, there are third-party software packages that can improve the experience - thank you Handango :)

Now about the Pantech C810 duo... I don't have one... BUT I have to support several people that do use them. And they love them! Realize that this device is a Windows Mobile smartphone, hence a PDA with calling capability. Yes, batteries are short-lived, but compared to the TILT/TyTN/etc it's probably longer on average. If it locks-up, maybe you didn't close applications and left a bunch of them running in the background (which will bring any device to its knees). I have several users who need access to corporate email / calendar / contacts, but don't want the hassle of blackberries. And they don't care a lot about internet - just enough to check the headlines and weather forecast now and then. So ditching the touchscreen was not a total loss. Besides, those were the same people who hated the on-screen dialpad and wanted a fast (traditional) dialing method. That is the biggest advantage of this device, compared to other smartphones. (And who likes the miniscule buttons on the MotoQ / Blackjack / Palms anyway?) I've had two replacements - one for call stability and another for a poor speaker (distortion, low volume), but in both cases I had the replacement in hand the very next day.

You will not find a better smartphone in such an efficient package anywhere. And if you hate on-screen dialing, but have to have email access & qwerty keyboard, then look no further. So charge the phone when you sleep at night and be happy!



3 out of 5 stars pantech duo   June 25, 2008
The size and keyboard is great. The slide out feature is great. The sound quality is not very good but comes through better when using a hands free device. The picture quality is also not very good. I would only buy again if there was no comparable AT&T product which had the same features because the sound quality thing is a big hurdle to jump....Also I have not been able to get mine to pair with the Jabra SP5050 bluetooth speakerphone....which is too bad because I really like the speakerphone.


5 out of 5 stars Great phone.   June 16, 2008
I've been using it for weeks now and I must say, I've impressed by it. It can do everything I want it to, and everybody wants to see if when I flip it out. I recommend it whole heartedly.


2 out of 5 stars The phone part doesn't work for me!   June 11, 2008
I have had this phone for 6 months now. I love the qwerty keyboard and the ability to receive my email on this phone. That function is perfect. The phone part however has only worked 5% of the time and I am beyond frustrated. When I call AT&T they have given me every excuse except exchange the phone or fixing it. If you want this phone to actually talk on it, don't buy it. Every call ends right after I dial and the phone hardly ever rings, my calls go directly to voice mail. If I do get through, the person is mumbled. I don't think the network or it being Windows based is ever in-synch. I just plain give up!


2 out of 5 stars It died after 10 days   June 6, 2008
 1 out of 2 found this review helpful

I purchased the phone from EBay Express for my teenage daughter 10 days ago for over $325.00. We are not yet in the period of our 2 year phone contract therefore this phone would have cost $450.00 through the AT&T store. The phone was brand new (not reburbished) and exactly what we expected in size and appearance. My daughter loved the Qwerty keyboard, and was more then pleased with the look and style of the phone. The phone however was extremely slow with transmitting text messages and super slow with any photo downloading or attempts to navigate on the internet.
We have now had the phone and entire 10 days and it has completely shut down and does not work at all. I am in the process of trying to get reimbursment through pay pal from my ebay purchase. I would warn anybody who purchases this phone from a non AT&T dealer, that you lose your "return it to the store" option when you do not purchase it direct from the store. I am not sure how the process works through Amazon, but I want to say "buyer beware".. The phone is super cute, but not very hardy.
