T-Mo launches Samsung Katalyst with HotSpot @Home

Seriously. Do anyone’s friends actually look like this?

What does $79.99 and a two-year contract get you these days? The Samsung Katalyst (SGH-t739), a slim slider from T-Mobile that supports My Faves and HotSpot @Home. While you probably won’t feel like the coolest kid on the block with this WiFi-enabled phone, you can make calls over WiFi and it’s technically a world phone even without the WiFi capabilities.

As you recall, HotSpot @Home is great because you can make calls from any hotspot in the world, which is great. Not so great? The meh phones T-Mo is throwing at this service except for, obviously, the Curve. Oh well. Trade-offs, I suppose.
