IMPRESSIVE! VERYYY IMPRESSIVE!

That's good news, especially that everything sold in Dubai is NOT sim locked. But is this info confirmed? Anybody already bought one (he must be among the first in the world) ?

read the posts below
in the posts below the news there are some with pictures of the boxed product.
and more important: manual with an optional battery pack with CF sleeve
this is more than outstanding specs

AED 3050 is the going cost ( NB no income tax and no Sales Tax only a 5% import duty is raised here in DUBAI) so higher than YOU GUYS will have to pay, the beast only comes with a charger (Connection plug is bigger than the old Qtek or SmartPhone,also it comes with a FIXED Euro Wall Plug...the old one here came with an exchangable wall Plug) , a chrging adapter (also changed !) a USB/Charging Cradle a CD with ActiveSync/Outlook 2002 (Outlook 2003 was launched Yesterday here in Dubai!), a spare stylus...and a couple of handbooks...
YOU must use the autoconfig on Powerup ! if you dont you will not get IA phot, Camera,Album and a host of other things...BUT be warned it will try to install ARABIC OS Extensions...so If you do get one you must start the Autoconfig, but CANCEL all the requests to install the Aribic apps. It seems only to do this once..so be warned..
Quick Review
Screen is better than a HP1945 but about the same as a HP 2xxx
Batt seems to be longer lasting than the old qtek
reception is improved also
OS and APPS seem to have some issues Stability is poor, I did run PC2003 4.05/4.16? for the last 3 months on my qtek and seemed much more stable
GPRS has improved now you can select 4R1 or 3R2 !
modem is there.
if some one can figure out how to get the beast into Boot loader I will make a ROM image on SATURDAY (going to the UK tonight) when i return
cheers
derek

:shock:

Great idea DEREK !
You have to contact to Developer or Jeff or York...
:roll:

One question NoBackUp if you dont mind:
how is the screen like in bright outdoor daylight. Can you see clearly to read say in a bright outdoor cafe or to use the camera under direct sunlight?

Hey
i just got 2 they are excellent so i think by that i confirm the availibilty of the XDA II under the i-Mate brand in Dubai is certain.
If anyone needs any info plz contact me anytime

Where to get an XDA II in the US?

I currently have an XDA I (Siemens SX56 AT&T) and would like to get an XDA II (unlocked) as soon as they're sold by a reliable US source. FYI, I called AT&T Tech support and they said an unlocked phone should work great, just swap the SIM chip over from my XDA I.
It looked like Phone4Devs would be a good source, but they went out of business. The other sources (below) I've found are mostly overseas and pretty expensive.

I'm sure I'm like many of you who would like to pay less than the $850-1,000 + Unknown Custom Charges, that overseas sources are asking.
There are many versions of the HTC Himalaya phone out there (qTek 2020, O2 XDA II, i-mate XDA II). It looks like the i-mate and qTek are the best for the US. Any feedback?
Let's see if we can find a good supplier in the US !!!
Thanks.

www.expansys.us
Use this link for USA marketed iMate or O2 XDA II. Sales tax charged in Illinois only.

XDA II Prices before Shipping
Benshop - US$905
Compume - US$830
Club i-Mate - $850
4Cellular - US$990
Mobilefly - US$880
PPCW-net - US$846
Expansys.us - US$833
I converted to USD where necessary and all are BEFORE shipping. Compume (Australia) and Expansys (World-wide) seem interesting.

and how about eBay ???
has anyone considered that option to acquire a/m XDA II ???

monika

Ordered an iMat XDA2
Gave up on Expansys.us. Ordered a iMtae XDA2 unit from PPCW.net (Arne). On route, looking forward to it.
Still trying to sell my existing XDA1 though, pass the word

cshields1,

When you get your phone please let us know of your over all experience with PPCW.net and also how the warranty or technical support is handle for the phone. I understand Expansys.us will play the middle man if you have an issue with phone during your warranty period (which is good considering we are in the US).
