T-Mobile director of handset innovation Saj Sahar hinted earlier this week that T-Mobile T-zones would be relaunched and rebranded into something similar to “Web n’ Walk”. Available only in Europe, Web n’ Walk allows full Internet access on any T-Mobile phone. Novel concept, huh? Novel at least for T-Mobile who, as part of their T-Zones service, blocks certain ports on its branded phones in order to force users to use only the standard xHTML browser included on the phone. For those T-Mobile folks who have suffered through this crippled web experience, an overhaul and an opening up of T-zones is very good news .
