Well, well, look at what we have here. It seems that the FCC has been busy as of late giving the HTC Magic a thorough examination and the good old bureaucratic stamp of approval. So what makes the T-Mobile USA-branded version of the Magic, known as the G2, so special? Well, not only does it have T-Mobile’s special 1700 MHz band of HSPA tacked on top of the 2100 MHz band for Europe and Asia, it also sports Wi-Fi with UMA for Hotspot@Home. Oh, and did we mention the camera has apparently been bumped up fr...

The box, which should be available from your local Sprint store for $99, plugs into your broadband router, providing you with an added signal boost aided by your home internet connection. The service, similar to T-Mobile’s Hotspot@Home, is targeted at folks that live in a fringe coverage area, but are still tied to a Sprint account for whatever reason. It’s a decent proposition, but we’re pretty sure that t...

Exciting these new handsets are not, but if you’re in the market for a middle of the road Hotspot@Home-capable T-Mobile device, your search just got a bit more cumbersome.

We’re not exactly sure how much this will cost, but expect it to slot in towards the lower end of the spectrum (like pretty much everything else T-Mobile has to offer). Hotspot@Home is a great feature, and given the appealing styling, we wouldn’t be too unhappy carrying this sucker around in our pocket. Hit the jump fo...
