black-dashT-Mobile has relaunched the now venerable T-Mobile Dash with a new more conservative black bodyshell and various bugfixes designed to address longstanding bugs in Windows Mobile 6.0.

 The refreshed device was never meant to have Windows Mobile 6.1 as some outlets mistakenly reported when the device was first spotted in the wild, with the forthcoming Shadow 2 being the first new Windows Mobile device on T-Mobile to launch with 6.1.

The Dash is now available for $149.99 after new 2 year agreement before an additional $50 mail-in rebate, bringing the total to $99.99.

In related news, T-Mobile is also waiving the $36 activation fee for new customers that sign up with the carrier online, which can easily add up to $180 in instant savings when activating multiple lines under a shared plan.
