Cingular 8125 officially announced

T-Mobile has its and now Cingular has its 8125. The Cingular 8125 (a.k.a. HTC Wizard) is the latest Windows Mobile 5 device to join the carrier's smart phone lineup, right behind the Cingular 2125. The quad-band (GSM 850/900/1800/1900) world phone comes with integrated Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and EDGE support. In addition, there's a full QWERTY keyboard hidden behind the slider design, and since it will be upgradable to Microsoft's Messaging and Security Feature Pack, you can receive your e-mail in real time with push technology. Cingular will offer two versions--one equipped with a 1.3-megapixel camera and one without. The Cingular 8125 is available now to corporate users through Cingular's B2B sales channel, while the rest of us will have to wait till the end of February. Oh, and start saving now as the smart phone's price is set at $299, although you should be able to get it for less with service. We are due to receive our evaluation unit today, so check back very soon for our First Look video and full review.
