Buying Magician problems from Nowicom, any recommendations ? - JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General

Had 4 Magicians on order from Nowicom for a while now, yet they still do not have any in stock.
Can anyone recommend another place that will ship to Spain, within the same price range of Nowicom. I need 4.
Thanks in Advance

I would try expansys.com, now that they have it in stock.

I ordered the Imate JAM for 570 euros with deShop . It is a device with English ROM!!
They'll got stock next week.
I allready bought a lot off stuff over there. Even the Imate PDA2K, I bought from them... Very good shop with good prices.
Compare to other shops I found for the JAM, the price is good too!!
Not sure if you wants a JAM though... anyway good luck with your search!!

thanks for the quick response. Exapnsys are way to expensive though, will check out de shop though. Any other suggestions appreciated

According to a guy here, it comes in English and is branded HTC rather than MDA.

If you go through that thread, a guy in Greece says he cannelled his order on Expansys and ordered from those German guys.
He says he should hav it by tomorrow (tuesday 23 November).
He also said that it was in English and branded as HTC although the picture says T-Mobile.
1) Yes, they have it in stock.
2) No it's a T-mobile branded
3) No the OS is in german and they are waiting for a good flash to flash it in english. They will probably have this flash this week
Yes exactly, the update arrives thursday for english language.
Whats more interesting: The upgrade will (as stated on the expansys forum) be published as download (so you will have to do the "upgrade" yourself.
If anyone gets his/her handon this, please remember to at least post the IntelliPad (aka T9) and Intellidialer CAB files from the ExtROM . . . . .
To get acces to the ExtROM: After a hard reset after doing the initial settings (like calibrating), do a soft-reset (so the customisations wont be run. Voila: Its open. The copy the needed cab's off . . .and post them here
To continue working with the device do another hard-reset and then follow the normal procedure.
Lots of Himalaya users will be very thankful!

I spoke to a guy on their phone lines.
He says they've been expecting them since last week but it hasn't come yet.
Apparently, it's due to shipping issues as the goods have been despatched from Taiwan.
Gotcha. I just ordered one from nowicom.com (MDA Compact in German) and will receive Friday (hopefully). :lol:
I'll let you know when it comes about flashing to English. 8)

This is me. I wasn't logged in.
Hi guys,
First post on this forum but likely not the last one, given that I'm planning to buy a MDA compact asap.
With that in mind, I've a couple of hours to spare in Frankfort airport on Monday:
- Any chance I find a SIM-unlocked version?
- Any chance I find the same with a EN ROM?
- Will the nowicom EN ROM be downloadable by everyone (or will a code be required)?
Belgo
T-Mobile sells them in Netherlands with WWE (English) ROM.
Locked though. Big chance all MDA Compacts are sim-locked as they are subsidised by T-Mobile with a subscritpion (not sold without one)
Edsub,
thanks for the answer but assuming you are right, where are the versions from nowicom coming from then? I thought they were selling Sim-unlocked (but still T-mobile branded).
Belgo
Hi All,
I found this link on the Expansys forum http://www.phones2udirect.co.uk/Products/type/phones/ProductID/5654/NetworkID//I-Mate_JAM.asp
I don't know if it is really in stock but for those that want an iMate on cotract, it might be a good deal.

I'd phone them and make sure it's in stock if I was thinking of buying from them.
Just phoned them.
The guy I spoke with said they had them in stock but that batch has already gone out.
They should have some more by Wednesday.
Not in stock then.
Those guys (phones2udirect) seem a bit slippery to me. Their web site says "in stock" for that item. I called and asked a sales guy about it. He said that they dont have any right now but they hope to get some by the middle or end of this week.
The I asked him why, if that is correct, they show it as "in stock"? After all there must be people who are putting their credit card info on line and being charged, for an item these guys do not have! He then said, "well we are taking orders and then we'll get them an ship them out" SO I said "we'll that's no IN_STOCK, thats ON ORDER", isn't it? He really didn't have much to say after that.
So be careful. They are not honest at all. If you have problems with the phone, it would probably be even worse.
Yeah, I thought it was too good to be true. I am actually waiting for a Jam from Expansys. I don't live in the UK so I have to buy one without contract in my country anyway. I guess the guys that bought from Newcom in Germany still don't have their English language ROMs yet. I think I'll stick with an English imate Jam.
Matt
OK, for those interested in how many units Expansys is receiving, I was told by French Expansys that in total they would be getting 1,000 iMate Jams (for all countries) and the backorder is only 300. It looks like all orders will get filled when the shipment arrives

I am new and wanna buy a Qtek 2020i, please help.

Hi guys, i am from Canada and wanna buy a ppc phone with BT, wifi, camera and faster CPU. is qtek 2020i a good choice? does it often freeze if many softwares are installed on it? is Expansys a reliable online shop? would you guys please give me some suggestion, thx alot.
...
Hmmm...Why not? 2020i is already a little bit outdated and therefore should be the price not so high. I have 2020(without I-MDA II)since May 2004 and I am still satisfied even is the concept already 2 years old. Yes maybe is it a little bit slow while running too many apps in multitasking,but 400MHz processor is working very well. The stability doesn't deppend on the number of installed applications,but on what kind of applications(unstable,crashing,conflicting,etc.). And what about the stability... Put there a Magneto and enjoy the rock-hard system kernel. The 2003se is also not bad. 2003 is outdated and non-friendly for many new applications(couldn't run on 2003). If you have a chance to buy it from a second hand(the price could be less than 500$!),then buy it!. It is not like a car(that you need be focused for a technicat state and for miles droven as well ). The electronics can working many years...with no problem. The software can be upgraded. My suggestion: TAKE THAT.
s Expansys a reliable online shop?

I-Mate K-JAM vs Qtek 9100

Is there any obvious reason why the K-JAM is about £60 ($108) more expensive than the 9100? I'm assuming they're either made in the same factory or the same "blueprints" are given to each company to make the device. If this is the case then I'm guessing I-Mate is just playing off of it's well established brand name... or maybe there are just some software differences.
Thoughts?
The only thing I can think of is the support you get from I-mate. Now I know its not great but have you tried to find an English support site for the QTEK..
Hehe, this is true.

Is it http://www.qtek.fi/ ?

A better site but "distributör för Qtek-produkterna" not them
Still - I have to say the lack of web site etc has convinced me that the extra £50 or so and 1 year warrenty instead of 2 is worth it in the long run so I'll probably get an Imate.
Terran
can we have a list of best price/dealer for the qtek 9100 and the imate k jam sim free, from all purchasers to be in the uk?
qtek 9100 on buymobilephones.net £429 inc vat
imate k-jam amazon.co.uk £449 inc vat
anyone found better deals?
thanks for any replies.
Qtek 9100 on www.smartdevicesdirect.com is £410.08
I-mate K-JAM on www.smartdevicesdirect.com is £468.83
I've ordered the Qtek from above back when it was only £400 (they raised the price by £10 pre-tax!).
Hrm, £449.99 for a K-JAM, thats a very good price indeed. If I trusted that Amazon would get stock early I'd probably change my order.
for a change i have to be patient, going on holiday next week, so wont place an order untill i get back :lol:

international shipping ?
the more i think about it, i would prefer to get the i-mate k-jam, due to the availability of support.
with this type of product you are more likely to have a software problem than a hardware problem, two years is great but probably not as useful as support.
i still cannot find on-line support for qtek in english
note for rookery, do you know anyone in the UK who could order and post to you? that way no import duty cause it's a gift.
p.s. amazon.co.uk is still showing better price for imate k-jam £449 inc vat

Yes, it will cost £349 + £35 shipping around HK5500 when it ship to me, earlier, i think this device will only cost USD4xx, but now it cost much than that, reconsider to get one or not, for me, HK5500 for just a phone, not so reasonable, Thanks for the information

yes, it has a touch screen
Amazon is good but they don't indicate when they will get stock !! If you are a patient person for a new PDA then it's worth waiting at least a month or so before buying as the price always drops.
If your anything like me though waiting a couple of months after release would be detrimental to my health :lol: .
Imagine , you are walking down the road one month after release on your nokia because you sold your Jam to fund your new K-Jam, you turn the corner and there is a guy chatting away on his brand new K-Jam :shock: Nooooooo !!! I'd rather eat Liver :wink:

Wizard Availability in Hong Kong

Hi all. I'm looking to purchase a Wizard when I go to Hong Kong this January.
--
I was wondering if the Wizard is available in stores already [i.e. like WAN CHAI COMP CENTER or FORTRESS]
--
I need a device in English [so the keyboard will be in QWERTY]
--
If it is not available in stores yet then maybe I'll order off Expansys HK and just claim it when I'm there...
--
Any HK peeps out here? Your input will be welcome and appreciated...
In hk, the dopod838(htc wizard) is your only choice.
you dont need to worry too much.
Eng and chi version are both available in market.
You can get one from any store.
Because most people target on Dopod818 pro and o2 Atom.
Anyway, the market place is around $6100 hk dollar.
Do u need any other information?
Maybe i can get you a hand.
Wow HKD 6100! At Expansys HK the Qtek 9100 is listed at HKD 5580 that is around HKD 520 difference.
Would you happen to know where the cheapest English dopod 838 is being sold? TIA

well if the hk local warranty is not a concern, i'll suggest u get 9100 or kjam instead. ( for me they came with much better outlook than dopod )

HK warranty is not really an issue for me. My main concern would be ROM updates I've been to the dopod website and it's all in Chinese, it leaves me wondering how frequent the English OS devices will get their updates.

yeah. that and the fact that the qtek would be HKD 500 cheaper is really a plus factor
Just placed my order at expansys hk and they did not accept my credit card [maybe because I am from Manila, Philippines] anyway I would like to ask our Hong Kong brothers and sisters... is the Qtek 9100 available in retail outlets? i.e. Fortress or Wan Chai computer center etc? I do not like the dopod 838's look... has anyone spotted a Qtek 9100 in retail stores? Please reply asap so I know if I will get from expansys hk or just buy in a store. Thanks in advance. I will be in hong kong on January 1 thru 6 so any replies before this days will be appreciated! Also store info would be really helpful

bad news for you, there are no retail shop in HK are selling either 9100 or kjam. Btw, why don't send an email to Expansys and ask why they are not accepting your credit card ? ( they seems accept cheque or maybe bank transfer ? )
cheers :lol:
thanks for the info! so only the dopod 838 is available in HK retail stores then this is really sad news for me. i've been trying to call them the whole afternoon their line is busy anyway the reason they don't accept credit card from the Philippines is because there is widespread credit card fraud here. This was also my problem last year when I got my imate JAM from expansys hk I asked a friend to deposit for me, before they shipped my order, i thought since i was a returning customer they would accept my card but this is not the case apparently. i asked if i could deposit the money on january 2 and get my order on jan 3 but they have not replied yet. they are a bit slow aren't they!
Not always the best place to buy from but Ebay!

And i know this one is 2nd hand. but always an option
Hi!
@bnycastro: My post has not to do with your problem at all. Did you have the chance to take a look at the dopod 838 "live"? I promise it looks much better than on any picture. I know this since vodafone is selling exactly the same unit here. I found the pictures awful. But as soon as I had my unit in hands I fell in love... So give it a try...
Greetings from Germany

kjam availability
i am from the philippines too. i was able to buy a second hand kjam from greenhills... you should try looking around in that area... you might just find what you are looking for. good luck
how much did you get your unit for? I was hoping to get a brand new one and figured it might be cheaper in hkg. if i'm not to get a cheap one in hk i will probably get from gh as well... may i ask where you bought it? not in the 'tiangge' [bazaar] i hope?

Order your HTC Athena here !!!!

Hi everyone, i am getting more and more people asking me about HTC Athena so i decide to post a new thread about it with all the information.
From the information i heard and from what people are saying in 3GSM, the HTC Advantage and T-mobile Ameo won't be available until beginning of April at least. And also they have lock it to t-mobile network, and currently there is no unlock method for it.
The only Athena available (unlock to any network) is the DOPOD U1000 in Taiwan, it's the same machine just under a different brand. It's got silver finish like the Ameo, (i heard the finish is much better than Ameo, it's got metal finish) so if you are after the black one, you need to wait for Advantage.
************HTC ADVANTAGE RELEASE DATE IS PUSH BACK DUE TO UN-STABLE ROM, POSSIBLE RELEASE DATE NOW CHANGE TO END OF APRIL OR BEGINNING OF MAY ***********
************T-mobile Ameo is out in UK!!!! But it's lock to T-mobile UK, and is with contract only (starting from £35 per month !!! Yes you won't be able to buy it without contract ! Even in the future......but for people who are t-mobile customer or for people who want to sign up new contract, this is your moment !*************************
***********Because T-mobile Ameo is out in UK, which means...........yes !!! Dopod u1000 user will get their english Rom very soon! *********************
Since DOPOD U1000 is already available in Taiwan, and my family is there, so i can do you guys a favor of ordering for you. My parents are the direct reseller of DOPOD, so the price will be a little bit under the Market price, which is £600 /$1150 . It will be cheaper than expansys or Mobile planet, but most importantly, it's available now, so you can get it if you don't want to wait.
So this is how it works, i don't have the machine with me so once i get your payment or deposit, i will order one for you, because they don't ship internationally, once i order, it will shows up at my parent's office next day, and to save time, they can ship out directly to your country on that day, it will take about 4-5 days for it to arrive to US OR UK. So once you pay, you should get it within 1 week.
Now for the payment, i accept all kinds of reasonable suggestion, but please understand one thing, since i am doing the favor for you guys, i won't risk myself and nor i am trying to make a profit on it. So if you don't feel comfortable, don't do it. I have an ebay account, i can put a private listing on then you can buy there, or if you are in London, i can meet up and hand you the machine with cash, or you can transfer money to my bank account, then i ship out the item for you. For UK buyer, i will also accept postal order. If you decide to pay by paypal, you will need to add the extra tax on, which is 3% i think? (need to check on that)
Now this is what you will get, the DOPOD U1000 Silver Athena with CHINESE rom, yes it's chinese ROM, you can surely change it to english rom later. The keyboard layout is exactly the same (unlike german keyboard) but there will be small chinese symbol on it, it's how we use to type chinese. It won't make any difference if you don't use it. Of course the manual will be in chinese, but i think there will be english part on it as well, or you can download from internet. The charger will be in chinese charger (the same as US one i think, but not sure), all you need to do just plug in a converter or buy a new adapter. And don't forget, you can always use to USB to charge your PDA as well.
So after reading all this, if you still want the device, let me know, or PM me, or post question here, i will try my best to help.
I just got a confirm that the postage to US, UK, and similar country will cost £50, i will be able to put the parcel as gift, so you should be able to avoid customs Tax. I might can put the price down if a large amount of people want it, or to ship to the same country.
p.s. The phone is unlock to any network, so no matter where you are, you can use it with no problem.
******Ok, i have received quite a lot of message regarding about shipping cost, they all cost around £50, but for some special country, they might cost more, it's impossible for me to check each postage for you, since i don't know the answer as well. So i will say the postage will be a fix price of £50 to any country, but if it works out to be far more cheaper or expensive, i will let you know **************
!!!!!!!!! Although i will try my best to avoid custom Tax for you, if you get charge with custom Tax, i won't be responsible for it ! so please understand this point !!!!!!!!!
****It seems like a few member here are looking at the HTC Advantage selling on Google, it is your own risk to buy it there, but i must inform you they are 99% fake, i have spoke to HTC, and have official confirm that the HTC Advantage won't be out until beginning of April. So don't be foo by the price there and waste the money, don't believe me, look at the list of item that seller is selling, he se selling the Apple iPhone! you make the call *******
p.s. Here is a link with nice Photo of DOPOD U1000, and this is what you will get if you order it from me. http://www.go3c.com.tw/
p.s. I have just received mine, wowowow, the build quality are much nicer than i expect. And also Unlike the Ameo, the DOPOD U1000 is brighter metal finish. I have attach the pic of what you will get if you order soon enough, the DOPOD U1000 + HTC Stereo BT Headset
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ok, i think there are a few confusion here about the language and english rom update ability. The DOPOD U1000 is in chinese, if you are a heavy PDA user, then it shouldn't be a problem since you already know which icon does what. And the new software you install yourself will all be in english. But if you want all your menu and settings to be in English, you can install the CE-STAR SUITE, like this one : http://www.expansys.com.hk/p.aspx?i=144165 . It basically translate all the User interface into english, so all your setting will be in english. Or the final and most complete way is to do a ROM upgrade to english ROM. Dopod u1000 will 100% have no problem doing the english Rom upgrade, so why don't people do it now? It's because English Rom is not out for Athena yet, or in another word, Athena is not out in english market yet. That's why some member here choose to buy it from me, they will use their machine now, and when English Rom is available, they will upgrade it.
So When is English Rom available? Answer is simple, when Ameo is out in UK (not anywhere else) or when Advantage is out,then you will be able to use their ROM to upgrade to english.
I hope this is clear enough, have been seeing too many confusion in a few thread.....
****Latest Update! English DOPOD is now possible, look here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=299176. No need to worry about the chinese interface anymore, all solve d!!! ******
7/4/07 update: faisal has comes up with a cab file which will translate your chinese DOPOD into english, here is the link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1212411&posted=1#post1212411 . So for people who is waiting for english solution, this is your time !
I have also attach a today screen of my DOPOD U1000, which running the software i install, see all in english !
Will it work with Fido/Cingular/Virgin mobile/Rogers/T-Mobile SIM's? Is it unlocked to work on those networks or only on Dopod? I like that price. I am ordering one. I dont care about the keyboard. Although I think that I will be keeping this phone for 5 - 10 years so i want a black one. >.< T-Mobile Ameo is going to be black. I think i will wait another month or so for a black one. I like that price though $1000 USD best price!

Well, if you understand chinese, you can order them online, but the problem is they don't ship internationally, that's why i need to ask my parents to help me, they live in Taiwan. The cost of the machine is £600, and the shipping is around £50, if i get charge far more than £50 for shipping, i will let you know. But £650 should be all

Good news!
Here is a good news i heard from my friend, who is happily using his DOPOD U1000 Now.
He has reported that the Dopod u1000 is EXTREMELY stable, after 80 third party software installed on his machine, it's still running very smoothly.
Another good news is apparently, the build quality of DOPOD u1000 is higher than expected. I here confirm again, it uses a different material than T-mobile Ameo, the DOPOD U1000 has a metal finish which boost up the feel of this machine.
Man, i really can't wait now, if i am lucky, i should get mine tomorrow

i don't really care about the magnates, it shouldn't do any harm, otherwise this product won't even be on market. As i say before, if you only want black one, wait for HTC Advantage, it will be out at the beginning of April.

well, at the moment, the DOPOD rom seems very smooth and bug free. It's quite unusual they produce such a good rom in the first go. Anyway, as i said, if you want the black one, you should wait for Advantage, if your contract is due to end, consider the Ameo as well, otherwise you should consider getting the Dopod u1000 from me

I want black but aslo i want a good device
you say the quality of build is better
because the rom's problem can repair, but the device buliding no
I see the U1000 and Advantage in pictures, and maybe U1000 really be more nice than U1000
If you see, please tell me, what is your opinion about that
tanX and Sorry

Look guys, i only going to say this onee more, those HTC Advantage are not real! The Advantage is not out yer, you can confirm that by e-mailing HTC yourself. It won't be out until beginning of April. If you look at that seller, he is also selling the Apple iPhone 8G, do you believe it? you make the decision! Don't waste your money there......please
Yup i agree. That looks fraudulent. Wire transfer... I dont trust it at all. Anyways i will email the person asking for proof or payment via paypal with buyer protection upto 2000USD. Maybe that will keep me safe. The 8G iPhone really looks fishy and bs!
