The lowly Moto V365 really can’t soldier on forever as AT&T’s only “rugged” (and we use that term loosely) clamshell; we’d thought the W760r was coming in to save the day, but sadly, it’s yet to materialize. So what’s a butterfingered AT&T subscriber to do? With any luck, the answer is to wait just a few more weeks, because Boy Genius Report claims that the Samsung a837 will launch in the mid-September timeframe with HSDPA, Video Share, Bluetooth, GPS, push-to-talk (naturally), and a 1.3-megapixel cam, making it AT&T’s first and only beefed-up 3G set. Yes, it could be prettier, but something tells us that’s not really the market AT&T’s going for in this place — then again, with de facto competitor Casio trotting out the Boulder in orange, maybe we’re off base on that one.

Remember that wild, sporty W6 that Moto unveiled a few weeks back? TmoNews is claiming that T-Mobile will be picking up a suspiciously similar handset known as the MOTOACTV W450 in early September. There’s really not terribly much continue in this place other than water resistance, apparently, with a 1.3-megapixel camera, Bluetooth, media support with microSD slot (the phone’s designed to be jogged with, after all), and that’s pretty much it. Fortunately, the pleasure of shrieking at your own yellow keypad should only run you $30-50, so they say, when it launches.
