Search by voice, Google Maps with Street View, YouTube, and Picasa.
“We’ve heard loud and clear from our customers that a deeper
level of personalization matters to them,” said Denny Marie Post, chief
marketing officer, T-Mobile USA. “That is why we placed so much emphasis on
breaking the mold with myTouch 3G: to provide customers with boundless ways to
make their phone a true expression, and extension, of themselves.”
You can customize the myTouch 3G with widgets, icons, and
wallpapers that can be added directly from the home screen. The myTouch 3G also
supports the Android Market for easy access to thousands of applications for
further customization of the device.
T-Mobile also plans to launch a new application within the
Android Market called the AppPack next month. The AppPack will highlight a
variety of applications in order to help customers further personalize their
myTouch 3G, manage their T-Mobile accounts, and make the most of their T-Mobile
experience.
A variety of accessories and pre-designed shell patterns
will be available soon at retail and online stores. Customers will be able to

bundle with portable speakers and a fitness pack that includes a fitness belt
