Alltel has announced that it is offering customers the new Motorola Hint messaging phone. The Hint will be available on November 28th and uses a slider design. Under the display section of the phone is a slide out QWERTY keyboard.

The handset features a 2MP camera, MP3 player, and offers users web access. The display is 2.5-inches and it weighs 4.23 ounces. The handset is compatible with Telenav, XM Radio Mobile and more. Bluetooth is integrated and the camera can record video as well. The Hint will retail for $99.99 after a $50 mail-in rebate.
