T-Mobile River (NYSE: DT) myTouch 3G (known as the HTC Magic in other circles) is acquiring a pretty slickness update come Jan 20th. By teaming up with Fender and Eric Clapton, T-Mobile volition be able to preload this lollipop with a lot of classic songs like “My Father’s Eyes” and “Layla”, along with a few others from Avril Lavigne, Brad Paisley and Wyclef Jean. If that wasn’t enough, there’s also some apps on there for the music buffs, like Guitar: Solo (a guitar simulator) and something called Music Light. T-Mobile already has their hands busy with the Nexus One launch, but this is a nice update for the folks who put a bit more free weight in style than function. If you think it’s just a pretty paint job, there’s a whole draw more to it than that – T-Mo’s going to be launching custom music sync solvent from doubleTwist, and a host of new accessories (including a Fender carrying case and “Rock Dock”), and new battery doors later on.
