Another busy week for PhoneMag, so lets not delay with our review. First off, we got a good look at several concept phones this week. A Nanokia concept phone utilizing e-ink for a flush screen that doesn’t look like a screen at all. But the real attraction was new Pantech phone concepts that might actually get developed one day.

There was a lot of HTC news this week, actually. For starters, the HTC Touch Pro went official on Sprint and it has also shown up on AT&T. A few new HTC Touch Diamond photos have leaked of the device in white and we learned it would be available from Rogers without a contract, though for quite a hefty price tag. Lastly, there’s a new rumor floating around that a HTC Touch HD Pro will be on the way in the near future, full with a QWERTY keyboard.

In other news, the Samsung Epix was revealed to have an optical mouse this week. If this sounds familiar to you, the device is also known as the BlackJack III. It was also revealed that Samsung may very well have a camera phone in development that has an impressive 12 megapixels. Sony Ericsson also announced their 8-megapixel Hikaru to add to the other 8-megapixel offerings out there.

Those with a BlackBerry Curve got access to OS 4.5 on T-Mobile this week, plus photos of the new BlackBerry 8320 Curve leaked out. Interestingly enough, a new HP iPAQ Data Messenger is in our near future as well.

Finally, in AT&T news, Q3 results came out this week that showed some significant growth in data usage. Plus, a new slider phone called the Samsung Propel is now available on AT&T.
