Yesterday we reported on a leaked list that showed a number of phones possibly heading to AT&T. One of the phones we focused on was the AT&T Tilt 2, which we wrote was the name that the carrier was calling its version of the HTC Touch Pro2. Now we have a photograph that seems to confirm that AT&T will be offering this sizzling hot device. In baseball, a player that hits a single, double, triple and homer in one game is said to have hit for the cycle. With handsets, being offered at all of the top four U.S. carriers (Verizon, AT&T, Sprint and T-Mobile) is hitting for the cycle, which the Touch Pro2 has accomplished.
The T-Mobile version is due out on Wednesday, with Sprint following on September 3rd. We have no possible launch dates for Big Red or AT&T, but we can't imagine those two would give the other carriers that much of a head start. By the way, note how AT&T's version of the Touch Pro2 eliminates the top row of numbers on the QWERTY keyboard and replaces them with a numbers pad and a dedicated row of function keys on the top row. Also, it does seem that the carrier has dropped the Fortress name in place of the Tilt 2.
