exactly my thought... technology is getting really annoying, so hard to keep up. i got my magician last summer when i was in saudi arabia visiting my parents... i think i'm gonna pick up a prophet when i get back.. trade mine in.

But...the XDA Atom appears not to be a HTC device...it's from another comany with no previous experience of PDA phones if MSMobiles is to be believed. I'd wait for the prophet.
Forgive me if I'm completely off the mark with this question! I'm pretty certain it hasn't else I think I would've known as I'm an 'XDA' fan! but! my brother rings me up and says sell off my Motorola A780 cos the Xda mini is out and has GPS built in
I was like no it aint! but he seems adamant!! (sp?)
Can you guys tell me for sure?! also, is there any variant of the XDA that has GPS built in?!
Cheers!
Dennis! West London UK!!
He's wrong...
Howdy, long time reader, first time poster...
I totally fell in love with the HTC series of Pocket PC's after my mate got himself a Himalayan, it's everything i neeed (read: want).
Ive spent the past few days reading through these forums and a few others on the merits of the magician. I like it.. i was totally convinced i was gonna get one.. then i stopped, Win Mobile 2003! :|
So then i saw the prophet and i've noticed there was quite a bit of talk over the previous weeks about it coming to australia soon.. Does anyone have any when? and under what name?
I'm planning on switching providers when i get my JAM or JAMin.. so one last question, does anyone know if any of the major telcos in Australia are bringing it soon?
I hope i dont have to settle for a Magician thats going to be totally out dated by the time im upgrading my phone again.
Thanks in advance..

It's gonna be called I-Mate Jamin' expect around mid-Feb in Australia. Telstra usually deals with I-Mateso you can buy through them on a plan but if you want to buy outright...try calculatorking.com.au which bundles i-mate GOLD warranty (2 years + emergency phone in case your set goes for repair, 24 hour support)
So i did some research today and last night, spoke to many people about the prophet and alot of them have no idea it exists
Seems like O2 have no intention of doing a Prophet based device.
iMate customer service had no idea, so they put me onto CellNet (the australian iMate distributor) and they say march/april
Expansys says it'll be out in 4-6 weeks.
Everyone i spoke to at telstra/vodafone/optus had no idea it existed.. telstra say however, they wont launch the fone for a month after it comes out as they test all their fones for a month before selling them.
Spose i'll be waiting a few weeks or getting a K-Jam
HTC prophet
Order from Expansys HK...they appear available within 3-7 days..

That is definitely true. In fact, I don't expect O2 to come out with any more HTC-based devices.

Just a guess, at least for our Asia-Pacific region - since Dopod & O2 are both targeting the same countries and markets, there would be a clash of interest if O2 marketed the same Dopod-branded HTC devices.
Since Dopod is with HTC, O2 has selected (or had no choice but to select) Quanta.

So's it's "just a guess" and not "definitely true".
You misunderstood my original statement.

The "definitely true" was in response to to Ruxton's comment that "there are no O2 devices based on the HTC prophet". It's definitely true... because it is. There *ARE* no O2 devices based on the HTC Prophet.
My next sentence, the "guess" as you put it (and yes, it is a guess), was my "expecation" that O2 will not come out with anymore HTC devices.
Makes sense as Quantum are not new to the PC Market at all. You have to admit the Atom is a pretty good first start with a Pocket PC of this size, ok so there are a few niggles but nothing an update can't sort
There was a ROM update for the Atom already and that didn't solve much. It just made the device usable from what I've read. What is this then, a BUY IT NOW, USE IT 3 MONTHS LATER offer from o2?
I was WRONG! O2 Germany (at least) is doing the HTC Prophet as "O2 Neo"
http://www.theunwired.net/?itemid=2868
Available sometime in Spring at an unknown price is O2 Germany's version of the HTC Prophet known as the Xda Neo (who comes up with these names?). Perhaps the most noteworthy bit of the announcement is the fact that the Xda Neo will include AKU 2.0 - effectively adding some long-awaited features such as stereo support over Bluetooth (A2DP) and the MSFP (the final piece of the puzzle in Microsoft's push-email solution).
Don't think this will be available in Asia
Hey There Guys,
i'm sliding off topic - Sorry.
my g/f is currently in New York and i would like her to get me a device (Neo/Jamin/Prophet).
do you know which operator sells it there or where can she get it? (do they sell Sim Free devices?)
what is the ~price?
Thanks ahead and Sorry for my bad English,
Lior.

Dear Nash,
Thank you for contacting O2 Asia Technical Support.
With regards to your query below, O2 Asia has not released a camera
patch
for
the XDA II Mini. Our engineers are currently looking into the
possibility
of releasing
a Windows Mobile 5.0 upgrade for the Mini (No further news at the
moment).
Thank you.
Warmest Regards,
Mark Njo

PRAISE DA LORD
Dude, you're 33 days late. I doubt Mark Njo said that. And who wants that slow WM5 anyways? I'd rather have 128MB or more RAM.
Wat did u mean that i am 33 days late???
Dude are ya trying to say this is a lie???
Which date did we have 33 days ago?
You can tell whether it is a lie or not by reading this thread.
Ppl i just thought u guys wud be happy to find out there was still hope..chatty buddy this was a mail sent to the guys at o2 to get asnwers this is wat i got..try and be nice i was just sharing info..
Yo Nash,
April fools has been long due, so I guess O2 Asia has fooled you too. I believe you in that you received this answer, problem is that the subject is just a little tensed (you'll be struck be lighting if you even think about posting something optimistic :-( )
For one of the latest camera & album version you can use this ftp://xda:[email protected]_Magician_T-Mobile_WWE_RC28_Customize.CAB
Take care, M
Thanks Buddy i get wat ya sayin
Come on... be real about it. The Magician is powerful, nice and small device. But it is dead to HTC and their resellers. Optimism was nice when the device was current. It's like waiting for a new AmigaOS... useless!
The one delivering WM5 to the Magician will be celebrated forever, but I don't see any sense in opening more and more threads: "Pssst... I heard something... believe me... source is absolutely reliable... WM5 goes Magician... next month... if not sooner..."
We'll all be happy if it happens... till then we better be quiet about that.

get it from ebay
What we can search for it?
I am searching a Black BlueAngel case for turning my silver Qtek9090.
The only black blueangel cases are sold with the O2 XDA IIs, so search for a case for that.
