Aug 5 2009, 2:48am CDT | by Luigi Lugmayr

Today T-Mobile USA, Inc. announced the national retail availability of the highly anticipated T-Mobile myTouch 3G with Google Android Smartphone. T-Mobile announced their 2nd Android phone back in June. See also this myTouch 3G Review.

To celebrate the myTouch 3G arrival, T-Mobile is aiming high and plans to launch an aerial spectacle in the sky over San Francisco. Today at noon PDT, 100 skydivers, each dressed as unique personalities to reflect the individuality of the myTouch experience, will colorfully parachute in synchronized formations over the city.
Designed by HTC, the T-Mobile myTouch features a 3.2-inch HVGA touch-screen display and virtual keyboard, which orients automatically from portrait to landscape mode in most applications. The myTouch also features a 3.2-megapixel camera, a music player with a pre-installed 4GB microSD memory card, and enhanced video capabilities to make it easy for users to record and share pictures and videos, whether via e-mail, MMS or one-click upload to sites such as YouTube and Picasa.
The myTouch 3G mobile Web experience is supported by fast data speeds via Wi-Fi and T-Mobile’s 3G network.
The T-Mobile myTouch starts at $199.99 with a two year contract.
Five distinct accessory bundles will be available this month online, including a music pack with portable speakers and a bonus promotional card for Amazon MP3 downloads, and a fitness pack that includes a fitness belt and arm band — each allowing customers to further match the phone to their unique lifestyle.
