Amazon.com. Inc. today announced its beta launch of AmazonWireless, its new branch, which offers both cell phones and service plans as well. Additionally, it offers easy shopping services plus two-day free shipping offers (can you imagine that?) and a fantastically broad range of mobile phones and smartphones from Verizon and AT&T.
Right now, AmazonWireless is offering over 100 phones, including the latest smartphones. What is more, these models are available on a budget. This service also allows customers to shop by carrier, price, model, color and so on. The website is also designed on the lines of Amazon.com, so checking out is an easy job for interested customers.
Amazon will also collect feedback from customers, so that they can improve their services in due course of time. Click here to know more about AmazonWireless.
Sprint Nextel has officially announced that it will be adding Wi-Fi to the BlackBerry Tour, starting next year. The carrier also said that it would include Wi-Fi in all its future smartphones. Sprint did not reveal how long it would take for its entire line-up of handhelds, but one thing is certain – Wi-Fi certainly is coming very soon.
Not only Sprint, but Verizon Wireless also revealed it has the same plans of introducing Wi-Fi to its own BlackBerry line of smartphones as well. But Verizon has not yet given a definite deadline as to when this service will be released. Right now, the BlackBerry Tour and Storm devices do not include Wi-Fi.
The RIM Blackberry Tour 9630 for Verizon Wireless is a fantastic smartphone that enables users to surf the web, download music and stream videos, on its splendidly fast 3G network. Once on sale, this device will be up for sale in more than 200 countries across the world, with email and web browsing in over 175 data destinations. Click here to know more.

The FCC site has one more inclusion today, that of the new Casio G’zOne mobile phone. The G’zOne, according to FCC documentation, is supposed to carry CDMA EVDO Rev.A and Bluetooth networks.
As far as we can see from the info in the files, this also seems like a clamshell phone, just like the previous G’zOne phones. So far, Verizon Wireless had been the official carrier for all Casio G’zOne mobile phones, but neither Verizon nor Casio has yet come up with any info on this one.
