    some people say that the quickfire is coming out in late october and some people say it is coming in november, if it is going to come in novemeber do u think it will be very early november like november 6th or earlier? thanks

  2. Ally says:

    I like the look of the phone n all but it really does mimic the sidekick…whats with that? And the battery life according to this is 3 hours talk time…thats awful! I think the need to consider battery life when making a phone for texting especially!!!

  3. Brent says:

    they or saying the phone comes out in November. but i want to kno if the phone is going to stores in november r going on the AT&T website in November ?

  4. joy says:

    Fine.its style is so beautiful. inform me when wil this product get in Bangladesh? (my state)

  5. shizy says:

    what is gonnna be the battery time before it runs out

  6. shizy says:

    Is this phone going to be comparible to an iphone but execpt with a qwerty keyboard…???…???

  7. shizy says:

    Got to get more colors!!! maybe even RASTA!!!

  8. msnisa says:

    why is the camera so poor?

  9. Derrick says:

    Ok, now this phone is the one that I have been lookin forward to. I have always wanted a sidekick but don’t have T-Mobile service in my location.. The only thing that I really see wrong is the utterly horrible battery life. I hope that the battery life is wrong…i mean 3 hours of talk time?! blah

  10. manas says:

    this phone comes out on Nov. 11th in stores. the cost will be $150 with out a 2 year contract. anything else fell free to email me…manasksh@yahoo.com

  11. nick says:

    hey manas how do u know the quickfire is coming out on november 11th? please dont bs me on this i really have been trying to find out when this phone is going to hit stores and no other website says anything about its release date other then it will be in late october or they just say november!!! please reply back!!!

  12. nick says:

    ya when is this phone coming outttt! i need it!!

  13. Will says:

    im pretty sure that manas source is not reliable because it will be 150 without the mail in rebate not without a 2 year contract. i wouldnt rely on that

  14. Micah says:

    Well my sources tell me that the at&t Quickfire will be launched for release in mid november and hit stores before december for christmas . It will cost $399.99 with out a two year agreement , but with a two year service plan it will cost $150.00. I get all my info from CEO of AT&T.
    Thanks for the wait!

  15. twenty4 says:

    I talked to an att rep today at the store, she had a sheet that said they should be out anytime soon and sheet also said the price is $99.99 after mail-in rebate with 2 yr contract.

    IM JUICED FOR IT TO COME OUT.
    DONT GET THE PANTECH MATRIX. you might as well use a brick as a phone cus thats what it feels like when its in my pocket.

  16. twenty4 says:

    btw. dont listen to micah, he obviously lives in retardland. You get your info from the ceo??? yea ok sure.

    And i went to the strip club with Terrel Owens and the Dali Lama last night.

  17. sm345 says:

    I looked up a lot of information and watched all the videos on the pantech
    matrix because i was stuck in my decision whether to get the matrix or
    the quickfire. I think the quickfire is going to be a better choice because
    i have read and heard a lot of complaints about the at&t matrix, which if
    im going to be stuck with it for 2 years i dont want a sucky phone. But how
    do we know all the cons about this phone because it has not been released yet.
    my contract ends Nov. 22 and im getting a new phone then and it will probably be this phone but i do not know when it is comming out. All i know is this month, some say Nov. 6th, Nov. 11th, or Nov. 15th. we will just have to wait and see
    i guess.

  18. Micah says:

    OH and twenty 4, fyi my father was vice presedent of cingular wireless and then at&t merged with us . So yes I get all of my info straight from them. Everything I said is completly true if u do not believe me just wait and see for your self .
    ps.
    Its so lovely in retardland you really should come visit!!!

  39. Jessica says:

  41. Jetbeautie says:

  42. vertec40 says:

    They’re out now, $99.99, with a $50 rebate w/2yr extension…

  43. Jessenia says:

    Is the quickfire phone a smartphone because I want to get it?

  44. vertec40 says:

    good friend got one for his son yesterday at AT&T store, geting mine tomorrow…

  45. Jessenia says:

    When is the quickfire going to come out?

  46. techlight says:

    I agree with everyone else , MICAH is a dumb ass ! I want to hear the truth about the phone not bull shit! please some one who knows what the hell they r talking about , does the Quickfire have youtube or video?

  47. micah is a butt munch says:

    yeah i went on the at&t website and it said that the phone would cost 279.99 and with the two year thing it will be 99.99 and i want this phone but is it out yet cuz in the att website it says coming soon but i have seen youtube videos of it so i guess it is out but idk :/

  48. Micah says:

    my fathers name is Randall Stephenson

  49. tayyyyy says:

    heyy i just called my nearest at&t store and they said that this friday
    november 14th that they will have the phone and they don’t know the
    prices until they get it. BUT I CAN’T WAIT TO GET THE LIME GREEN ONE<3

  50. querub says:

    it’s out today!
    i already put mine on hold.
    check your nearest store
    or
    go online on the att website.

  51. haha says:

    The people who are complaining about the thickness are stupid because it is the same thickness of a sidekick 3 considering i have one. and if people dont complain about the thickness of the sidekick 3 why would they complain about this one? cuz they wish they could get a phonee like this. the touch screen does not suck, the colors are pretty cool, and the keys are FINE. do you know why? cuz i have one and i do not have any complaints about the phone !

  52. Jessenia says:

    When does it come out because i want to get it? Is it a smartphone or just a PDA PHONE

  53. iff2mastamatt says:

    Cool phone! I was about to buy the Pantech Matrix until I heard about the Quickfire. Glad I waited! I hope it’s $280 w/o a contract because I use AT&T’s Pay as you go service.

  54. Jessenia says:

    dOES ANYONE NOW IF IT IS A SMART PHONR OR A PDA?

  55. KING STUN says:

    CHECK THE LINK ABOVE I WAS JUST THERE AND IT SAID 149.99 RETAIL PRICE AND IT ALSO SAYS 149.99 WITH 2 YR AND 99.99 AFTER REBATE WITH A 2 YR .??????

  56. micah is a butt munch says:

    dont listen to micah because it does not take a lot of brain power to google ceo of at&t and if her dad was the ceo then what she said would have been true which it wasn’t and she probably wouldnt be on thhis websiite because im sure she would already have the phone so micah get a life and go sleep with someones dad

  57. Midee1 says:

    Well all I can say is I have the phone in my hand. I paid $100.00 for it plus I get a 50.00 mail in rebate. So far so good.

  58. Laur3n says:

    i cannot wait to get this! :) im getting it 2night and its gonna be awesome! orange or green??? lol bYe!

  59. babyyy braxton says:

    i lovee the phone . but yhu need brighter colors like hot pink lime green and like a bright blue . more people will get them if they are attracted . but it is a pretty nicee phonee !
    i love and i want it for christmas

  60. Ttown says:

    God… there’s a bunch of little kids on here I see. All Micah was doing was giving out some info. She doesn’t WORK for AT&T her DAD does. It doesn’t mean she’s gonna know everything he knows. She’s just trying to help out with questions. Even if she’s wrong.. oh well! A lot of you are probably wrong too. God. Anyways. I’m getting this phone in a few weeks. Pretty excited about it. It looks like everybody has it in orange though.. I’m leaning towards green. But yeah it looks like a pretty cool phone.. the opinions that i’ve seen on it have been pretty 50/50 but I mean that’s with any phone. So yeah, looks cool. Can’t wait to check it out. Don’t let the pix you see online fool you.. it looks kinda bulky but I played with it at the AT&T store a few days ago and it’s actually pretty small.

    Peace.

    && leave Micah alone lol.

  61. Ttown says:

    && to the person who asked if it had video, yeah it does.

  62. hotti says:

    ok somebody is lying cas i’ve been to the at&t website and it says the phone will cost $299 not $279 without a contract!!! anyways… i already have a contract and its not up as soon as i want this phone (now!) so i will be getting one (green) next week with an employee discount of 30% off!!! yippy!!!!!
    ps
    you are all very childish ; )

  63. Brookiee_yo! :] says:

    hmmmm kinda like this phone but i think the pone should be cheaper cuz of the low battery promblen!!

  64. jU says:

    yo i want this phone 4 christmas ! does any1 know if the camera quality is good?

  65. Ttown says:

    camera quality is 1.3mps so it’s not that great at all. i’ve even heard some people describe it as blurry

  66. jaqueline says:

    Soo, Micah or whatever your name is..I have this phone and it was originaly about 300$ without an upgrade. If you have an upgrade it is 99$. I love this phone btw. It is amazing. bye :)

  67. jaqueline says:

    Oh!and the camera is not that bad. It takes normal pictures. It is not great, but definatly not bad.

  68. ttown is micah says:

    yeah ttown i bet you are micah thats why you are saying that shit face
