Will there be 2 versions of the wizard? - 8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General

I remember from a while back that there was 2 versions of the wizard. One was the one that we are seeing now as the qtek9100 and the kjam and there was one that looked like the apache(cdma version) but it did not have the aerial stub so it could not of been the apache. Does anyone know if there will be a different looking wizard being made that looks similar to the apache? I am quite sure I like the apache design a bit better but I am looking for a GSM device.

Do you mean this ???

I know what you mean , I remember seeing the thread somewhere when info was very scetchy. The pictures we saw if I have you right where the K-Jam or Wizzard and the Apache although minus the arial. The first shots I saw of these were like this . Saying that though Mobilefun.co.uk swear their K-Jam unit will be CDMA even after speaking to them and sending them the Imate spec sheet .. If so then it's the closest guarded secret this century.
The Apache has just been released on Sprint in the states .. You lucky things :lol: I think though the Apache is now a bigger device than was speculated .. Could be wrong though

yeah that is the one. i am really looking forward to the wizard since it seems to have everything i am after with the exception of built in GPS which i will sadly have to live without.
it seems like the units that are coming out are all in the qtek 9100 style which i am not too crazy about. i plan on buying a wizard the second it comes out but i would like to buy the latter version if possible. trouble is that i am not sure if i will be able to contain myself from buying the qtek 9100 once it comes out. especially since we have not seen any of the companies use the latter version as of yet. who knows when it is going to come out or even if it ever will.

I always thought the alternative styles were prototypes. I do remember seeing different versions in the FCC database but the only difference was that one had a camera, the other didnt (to make the phone acceptable in areas where cameras are forbidden).

It is Dopod 838

New Magician housing ????

I sold my Wizard to get a Universal and funds won't allow it at the moment so going back to a Compact, sold my last a few months back. Just picked up a tatty one cheap....anyone know of a source for new cases if it can be done in the UK ? Ebay link maybe ?
monkeyphonix: do you mind changing the name of this thread to "New Magician housing?" to be a bit more helpful. It's a bit misleading right now.
I haven't heard of anyone selling 3rd party case, but if you search you can find HTC's telephone numbers and might get spares.

I have their website up now with a UK number, looks like they do the work, not sure if they sell spares but will ring them, cheers.
have a look on the board though, I do think a few guys have tried it, so you might be lucky! I still love the Magician, just don't find the wizard attractive enough really. Universal - good for beating a man to death with...

hahaha...I like the comment about the Universal......can be used as a weapon in self-defence
O2mini_noob - it's all true!
This is what I have to wear when I put it in my pocket:

That's me in black :shock: (not really!)
I shouldn't be cruel. It's a nice device. I just wish they had put a lanyard hole on it, otherwise it's bound to fall and get mashed up like monkeyphonix's.

hahaha....that's a great illustration :lol:
There's another option for Magician cases
(1) Buy a silicon skin to protect your device ..black or brown will mask the condition of the exterior.
(2) At skinit.com, buy skins for your Magician and transform a tatty looking handheld into the coolest device in your area
(3) If the screen is scratched, get the "scratch remover" from ebay and DIY the repair of the screen. Then put a screen protector on.
Doing this will increase the resell value of your device when it's time for an upgrade

TYNT II
FTMFW!!!!!!!!!!
as soon as tmobile rolls it out.. its mine.. muahahahhahaa
If you don't need a keyboard the Polaris is a wicked phone...or maybe a shift if your ballin' out of control.
The Shift is not a phone.. it's like 7+ inches long and is a UMPC...but the Advantage is considered a phone and still fits in a pant pocket..unless it's a guy that's wearing those stupid brand new super tight & tapered wussie looking girlies pants they try to sell in the men'sdept stores that have no pocket space at all.. but if you're wearing like Rockawear or whatever..then they might fit in the pocket.. hehe btw... the next gen of Advantage is coming out... the Enhanced Advantage X7510
Why did you sell the Herald before getting your next phone lined up??
What are you looking for in your phone?? another pda phone? or just a smart/multimedia phone? something flashy or something powerful? with or without FM radio? blablablablablabla.... give us some more info on what you want! Do you need 3G? or 3.5G? or too poor to afford it lot a lot of other people hehe.
.. :'(
did you already get a new one?
Try out the Touch Vogue or Touch Cruise...
or Sedna... or do you if you liked your P4350.. go for a Panda(cool name hehe for p6300) or TyTn II
What's your budget??
Anyone keeping up with news from the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona???
is there a thread for that yet?
Thank you very much for your openions, I baught a TyTn II, Lovely device, Solid and Fast.
Best Regards
This thing is pretty sweet.

HTC's hipsteriffic invitations for a June 24th event in London contained precious few clues (DUDE'S WEARING A ROSE), but the Economic Daily News is now reporting something totally reasonable: it's for the Hero and Lancaster, HTC's presumed next Android phones.
Curiously, the paper refers to the two phones as one device, in two versions differentiated only by a keyboard.
The HTC Hero will be available in two versions, with and without a QWERTY keyboard. The model with a keyboard will be named HTC Memphis, or HTC Lancaster for sale by AT&T exclusively in the US for six months starting the third quarter, the paper indicated.
It certainly looks like there'll be a bit more than that to set the devices apart, and for the sake of variety, I hope there is. In any case, we'll be there. [Economic Daily News via Digitimes]

Looks like we won't be getting the Hero, or we have to wait until after the 6 months AT&T has it exclusively?
that phone is UGLY!! the mytouch 3g or what ever their calling it . looks way better
The version without the keyboard will probably be Hero, since the Lancaster is the one for AT&T.

how about this one?
http://ow.ly/b3EG
Anyone noticed that at least the Lancaster version has only a 240x320 display?
If this is also true for the HTC Hero version, it would be a clear disadvantage.

Htc hero clone running windows mobile 6.5

HERO CLONE RUNNING WINDOWS MOBILE 6.5, Check this out, i dont know wether its weird or cool
http://www.wmexperts.com/htc-hero-clone-runs-winmo-weird
The specs on that phone are so low that I wouldn't go anywhere near it.
From working in a phone repairshop i seen phones like this everyday most where nokia , pretty good fakes
According to wm experts they say its made by htc
"The new HTC G3: a clone of the HTC Hero but sporting WM6.5?"
I thought it was a clone, now i am confused lol
its fake, i work on photoshop all day if you look at the offical htc hero images they have a fake lens shaddow all the way down that has been cut and pasted

FAKE
think about design before you speak
yes, i know that the hero G3 clone does not
meet the same caliber of specifications as does
it's htc-designed and built predecessor but
a real phone nerd would appreciate what the design
process is to an engineer...
are you gonna down-rate
a design that is meant to be cheap
on purpose; i mean, come on. stop
being so "hugely" corporate.
i tested and used this phone and
it's actually suberbly designed; stable
and power-saving. no drain. it
eat's very little charge.
given that it depends on which of the "tiger"
manufacturer's we are talking about.
open your eyes a little.
The fact it uses cheap crappy software and relies on the HTC Hero's brand name for marketing isn't at all "corporate" ....
And it uses very little battery because the hardware is hugely inferior (see you're previous point...)
I fully appreciate the design process - so what makes it fair for others to steal someone's design work and sell it on?

Theres certainly nothing wrong with a Hermes. I'm still using mine every day with R13.5 of my ROM. I still can't pick any major issues with it!
What is the latest ROM for Hermes?
Is CRC 13.5 WM6.1 latest?
Any WM 6.5 ROMs for Hermes? ......
I gotta agree, I had 3 Hermes (Dopod 838pro). 2 are still going strong though the keyboard is fading on one - some keys are hard to press. 1 got stolen!

Define latest?
13.5 is the latest release of MY ROM.
WM6.5 is pretty slow on the Hermes. You can only stretch old hardware so far....
