Samsung Releases T349 Budget Phone For T-Mobile

Enter the Samsung SGH-T349 budget candybar phone from T-Mobile. It sports a 20-key partial QWERTY keyboard and XT9 predictive text technology for easy typing, along with a 1.3-megapixel camera with 4× digital zoom. There is a built-in media player capable of handling MP3, AAC and AAC+ file formats, storage capacity of up to 4GB, and support for wired or Bluetooth headsets. This is perfect for creating text, picture, video or instant messages, or email (take your pick) and it does so without breaking the bank by retailing for $14.99 alongside a new 2-year contract. Other features include a personal organizer, an alarm, calendar, calculator, notes, international clock, timer and stopwatch. One major blemish on the SGH-T349? Its EDGE connectivity.
