Online, June 18, 2011 (Newswire.com) - Pantech jumps into the US Android market by making an entry-level smart phone with an affordable price for the AT&T network. The body of the Pantech Crossover P8000 is 4.45 by 2.28 by 0.56 inches, weighs 5.15 ounces and feels great with rubberized corners and a textured back. This is a great size for slipping the phone in your pocket or bag. The full 4-row QWERTY keyboard is a dream to use. When it slides out, it locks into place so it feels secure while typing. It has good sized, well-spaced keys that are slightly raised so it's incredibly easy to type without mistakes. If you prefer a digital keyboard, the phone is equipped with SWYPE and the standard Android keyboard, so you have plenty of options.
The 3.1 inch screen has a 320x480 pixel resolution, which makes for very clean lines, great looking graphics and crisp text. The touch response is great, loading apps very quickly after the touch. The 600MHz processor helps ensure the phone runs smoothly and everything runs without lag, even while multitasking. Included is also Android 2.2, which is a great feature on an entry-level phone. The phone is loaded with smartphone features -Bluetooth, GPS, 3G, Wi-Fi, 3-megapixel camera, microUSB port, 3.5mm headset jack, tethering, calendar integration and email support. Browse the web on the full HTML browser, watch live tv on U-verse Live TV, listen to music on the stock Android player, and watch videos on YouTube.
We recommend using a Bluetooth headset for long conversations. The Samsung Original Bluetooth WEP480 Bluetooth Headset is a great and affordable Bluetooth accessory. Taking a multi-faceted approach to clear communication, the WEP480 provides fully integrated background noise filtering, echo cancellation, and wind noise reduction. In moving vehicles, at noisy restaurants, on crowded streets, or at sports venues, crisp and clear conversations are a reality with this simple, petite headset. Comfort is key as well. The WEP480 is sleek and lightweight. The transparent crystal ear hook can be worn on either ear for your comfort. It also includes auto volume control. While in the same feature category as premium-priced Bluetooth headsets, the affordable WEP480 is a tremendous value.
Experiencing dropped calls can be extremely frustrating and having a signal booster can be a lifesaver. The Pantech Crossover P8000 Wilson plug-and-play iBooster™ kit helps users reduce dropped calls, increase data rates in weak signal areas and originate calls from those dreaded "dead spots". The Pantech Crossover P8000 iBooster™ and its external vehicular antenna increases any Pantech Crossover P8000 phones output power to the cell site while improving its ability to hear signals it normally cannot, keeping the user more reliably connected. Designed for simple set up, the iBooster™ can be easily moved from vehicle to vehicle. Built into the Pantech Crossover P8000 iBooster cradle is a Wilson bi-directional Smart Technology™ signal amplifier and battery charger. The 'slip in' cradle for the Pantech Crossover P8000 phones features a pass thru connector for external accessory access. The cradle is ideal for hands free operation in conjunction with a user's headset or Bluetooth device.
