Hhhmm.. yeah guyz! when do you think XDA Exec will be out here in Philippines? Im afraid that it will be delay just like the XDA IIi wich was already released 2 months before it was available here.. Do you think Philippines will have it as soon as o2 releases it?
According to my calculation XDA Exec will cost not more than P60,000.00 Pesos.

XDA Exec in the Philippines
I heard that Globe are using it already within their offices ... but they are planning to release it by christmas .... i'm getting one too and using it stateside ... i heard it's around 60K Philippine Pesos ...
C
I wonder when it gonna reach Singapore
yeah 60k just sounds about right haha
what's the difference of exec by the way
the black color and some additional sw
Huh! 60K is so expensive....
I may go for the SE P990i... sad thing is I have to wait till Q1 next year
on christmas? huh.. sounds cool.. This might be the best gift for my self if i bought one..
o2 is the best among the T-Mobile, Orange, I-Mate, etc for me.
to Yankee
You better stick to exec cuz exec will blast all device available excluding "oqo"
It will probably be launched as DOPOD 900 instead of the Exec... either way, still a great gadget..
Meron na nga ba sa Pinas? how much is it now?
Hope you guys get Exec soon -tip for free access.
I sat in Gloreieta jeans , Manila a month a go with my MDA Pro.
One guy asked me if it was an Exec. I was quite rude and abrupt, a short swift Think so. sorry.
My device was new. And I was trying to do an internet chekin to Singapore airlines site which was frustrating me. Their web site does not seem PDA friendly.
Was hoping to avoid checking in at 5AM as opposed to 7AM.
I never managed it. dis use my MDA PRo on a recent flight from Singapore to London. Worked a dream, sending text for the plane via T-mob web site. Shame I had no VOIP or Skype installed.
Glorietta Jeans seems to have free access for PDA's . I was not prompted for login and connected OK.
I purcxhased some wireless internet time whilst in Manila. Wiz and another.
Will look it out and post details here , hardly used. Someone might as well
use it.
Dissapointed with my MDA, like the large screen but my advice wait for applciations. Opera, A2DP and fax software.
I could not even fax singapore airlines as no fax software works on the Exec.
I prefer my MDA compact which has working fax s/w,A2DP and is a nicer size. Until my MDA PRO ROM is improved

Hmmm.. question.. why'd u take offense from that fellow asking if it was an exec? He probably was in awe of you for having such a wonderful pda phone...
well, was just wondering...
Offense.
I was not offended just abrupt in my reply.
Had had a long bad day and was stressed , been shopping with wife,daughter all day and trying to do an internet checkin with a company who's site was not working well and running out of time/against the clock.
If I had managed to check in for my flight, I could have relaxed and shown him my PDA.
AS it was I went to a reacl cybercafe around the corner, used a real PC and the web site was still not working.

hello.......
i was wondering does any body know when this XDA 2 is meant to be coming out, i know it is "before christmas", but i need a more accurate date, beacuse i really want my XDA now and im not sure whether i should just get the XDA 1 now......any ideas?
also, how much will the XDA 2 be on contract? Any good ideas will be welcome...
Thanks in advanced
jay
hi there, I kind of had the same dilemma, but damn it I've got the XDA now.. :wink:
My guess is that the price will be prohibitively expensive at first, and may not be on contract straight away as a result, so you could be waiting a while, there are some good deals around on the XDA now - are you UK ?
Personally I'm thinking of taking the plunge next year, but I'll be waiting until the XDA2 has been around a while like I did with this.. but then will there be something else around the corner ?
yeah...that makes sense...
i really need it now....mainly beacuse i have a lack of a mobile
i am in the uk yes.....where are the best deals then? any good websites? how much you pay for yours?
i will probably by it on contract from o2........
thanks for your help
jay
no worries mate - glad to help..
yeah same again - I needed a mobile and liked the idea of e-mail, but couldn't quite get my head around that plasticky P800.. If you can stand the ribbing from your mates at first, and get yourself one of the ROMS you have got loads of cool stuff..
As for deals, I got my for 209.99 - Although I'm sure thats going down, I price-matched at CPW from a shop in Guildford who had a deal for 235, somehow they went even lower than the price-match to my delight ! (but I have heard that o2/CPW might be dropping the XDA - making an early release on contract for the XDA2 even less likely)
I have 2 XDA's 1 is mine and I have a spare for sale it is ulocked so can be used on any network it also has the latest ROM and Radio Stack.
If you are interwsted let me know by email or post.
Regards your question I contacted O2 they said middle to late December
or early Jan It has a camera as well as Bluetooth. So I am expecting it to be very expensive.
got my XDA for £190 boxed as new was an ex display model had been dropped and had 2 dents abover the ir lens came with everything.
got it from ebay sim free about 9 months ago :\
You can get an XDA from £59.99 depending on contract from:
http://www.e2save.com/e2001/php/matrix/disphandset.php?network=O2&handset=XDA
in case people missed it
http://www.inntalinfo.de/xda/XDA_2/body_xda_2.html
here are some new leaked xda2 pictures and some german description
http://translate.google.com/transla...//www.inntalinfo.de/xda/XDA_2/body_xda_2.html
Translated to english.......
got mine for £200 off ebay.. boxed and unused
hmm this XDA2 is lookin' pretty good I have to say....
If you go to ebay and search for XDA, you will find a guy selling o2 contract xda phones for £149.
I found out today that the XDA2 will be available in the UK in november there is no idea of price, thay also confirmed that bluetooth is built in and not a add-on option like the WiFi is
XDA II Mini ROM upgrade question
Hi all,
I have a XDA Mini II and am trying to use GoTalkMobile. The software tells me that my GPRS settings are incorrect.
All WAP sites work for me, however I am unable to use this Midilet. Please help!!
After 2 failed attempts with an O2 XDA IIs, i'm giving up:
as a phone, it is useless
as a PDA, it hard resets every few days
I've been offered an XDA IIi instead - is it any better?
Dont think twice, smash that piece of crap XDA2s and get the XDA2i
John
Yeah, the XDA IIs is the biggest heap known to mankind. I tossed mine in the furnace. Hey John, you have any simfree XDA IIi's you want to unload? I need one.
Thanks,
Mike
I will tomorow after unlocking put my XDA2s + all the spair bit on ebay, thats going to be fun as if i am honnest in the description no one will buy it.
For sale i have a 4 week old piece of crap called a XDA2s........
I will get a new price for a sim free XDA2i tomorow, they are going down a few pounds tomorow on the 16th
John
ME TOO!
Please. I have my XDAII set up good now, but there are a few glitches and I talked to one guy who said BT worked well and it had a choice of 7 serial ports! I have a BT POS and GPS but I have to use an old IR printer. I would love to use all three at the same fricken TIME.. Man I would love to strangle the MS BT and widcom developers.. Seriously.. I would F*(&@@@( whoop their ass. I wish BT worked like it fricken should!
Seriously, PLEASE, I must have one!

I have been patiently waiting for months now for this superb phone to come to o2 uk. I am already over due an upgrade but have been waiting untill the mini is available. But the wait is starting to annoy me and i am thinkin of jus leaving and going to t-mobile and picking up an MDA Compact. Anyone got any idea when the mini is coming to the uk? i have called o2 and they are as much help as a kick in the balls.
thaks,
Tom
Orange is releasing thier SPV M500 which is essentially a Jam, but it's also rumored it has 128mb RAM, may it's worth holding out a little bit longer for that
very interesting - if it does have 128mb of ram then it is definately worth waiting a bit for - but hopefully not too long! (i am a very impatient person!)
SPV M500
The SPV M500 is already available - I have one now, but alas it does not have 128mb Ram !
hmm if that's the case then i would still rather wait for the o2 XDA mini as i can probably get it cheaper as an upgrade an d i don't have the hastle of moving contracts etc. So any one got any idea when it is likely to be coming out?

I spoke to O2 UK about this a few days ago and the guy on the phone said not to hold my breath waiting for it as they may not do it here in the UK!
I was with O2 and in the same position a few months back - eventually I went with an Orange contract and a Qtek S100 (2 year warranty) - the interesting part is that orange will match O2's '200' contract, so essentially you end up with the same deal as O2 with the benefits of Orange (241 cinema tickets are great) and a extra years warranty! You don't _need_ 128mb, the bigstorage conversion takes care of that! Compared to the XDA2 it's incredible - just as fast, the SIZE OF A PHONE (AT LAST) and battery life is far, far better (i no longer need to charge EVERY day).
Do it...
I bought mine from:
http://www.a1comms.co.uk/store/merchant-4-34-305-Phones.ihtml
..but do shop around. Sell you old device on ebay - i sold mine for 350ukp with a gps unit!
I see they're doing an O2 promotion right now - so you could stick with O2 and save some cash!
e.g.
"O2 200 with 50 messages + Promotion (12mths) £30 per month, phone cost £29.99"
Or do what i do.It takes forever for the companys here in the uk to get the decent phone,if ever so when your upgrae is due,get the best phone possible,sell it on e-bay then buy whatever phone sim free ie i mate jam :wink: that way you don't have to spend time removing all orange,o2 etc's crap off it.You can even sell the phone you got now too to raise more.Works every time for me! :wink: :twisted:

To not install the 'crap' just reset the device after windows setup, that way the extended rom isn't installed and you can do it by hand. I did the math and it would of cost me more to buy, sell and then buy again - remember you can drop your contract rate post-six months in which brings the cost down again. Besides, the problem is, that O2 do not offer the magician as an upgrade
right cheers for the replies guys - very interesting, i am shocked however that o2 is probably not going to realease this phone! big mistake in my opinion! looks like i had better give up waiting then and go do some searchin around and some maths to find the best deal i can!
thanks again,
Tom
i got my s100 on o2 100 for £39.99 and £25 a month contract,

great device (obviously not branded as o2 but its still the same)
Hi
Was searching around for info on this, but it no longer seems to exist. Nothing on vodafone.co.uk, and expansys appear to have discontinued it. Anyone know more?
http://www.expansys-usa.com/product.asp?code=125789
I am looking for an HTC exec on a data contract for reasonable money. O2 want over 600/month for 200MB!!
Nigel
If this is possible:
http://www.expansys.com/product.asp?code=126421
Then I dont see why adding 200 quid for an HTC universal instead of the data card is not equally possible.
Nigel
I had a similar wait for the VPA to turn up but got bored and ended up going with T-Mobile web 'n' walk 400. Picked it up from http://www.buymobilephones.net/ with 400 minutes and 40MB for £55/month plus a decent initial cost and some months half-price line rental to boot.
Hi
I heard a rumour that the MDA does not have MSN messenger installed tho. This alone means that for me it aint worth considering? Can you confirm??
No 3G around here from T-Mob anyway so I am stuck with voda/O2

MDA doesnt have MSN. But for $11 you can buy it.
The Vodafone version does exist and will be out end of Oct , early november.
lol where from? did not know MS were flogging it as a bolt-on!
You know what t-mobile are like for fixing bugs? I found their german support site, but cant locate an english version.
German site is at:

reason being mate is because Vodaafone only sells pda to its busniess customers and not public- on Vodafone.co.uk click on there busniess link to see what they have avaible-p.s if you did get one and called general cusomer services 191 for support they would not have a clue becuse alot of them dont know that VF sells these devices-lol
Jesus, why post it once when you can post it thrice!!

No sign of VPA IV anywhere on vodafone business site. They have only one device VPA Mini (or whatever they call it).
Voda were never a big player in PDA phones. I get the impression from the expansys page posted above that they have just cancelled it.
Nigel
Pop into a Vodafone shop and ask to speak to the business accounts manager. The young lady in the Norwich Castle Mall store (Tamara) was very helpful and went out of her way to get me information. i.e. not just a quick call whilst I was waiting (which she did), but also coming back after a day or so to tell me what information she had gleaned when the first route offered no dates or prices. FWIW that date was 28th October and the price had not been decided then, but this was about a month or more ago.
I have an 'as new' XDA Exec for sale. It has never been out of my office. I am selling as I just cannot get on with the format of this phone/pda and will keep my XDA II.
£400 secures it.

Tempted to sell my 1 month old MDA PRO
Can't find a use for carrying this brick around, No fax s/w , no A2DP, Opera.
checking mail with wifi at breakfast I can live without.
Prefer my compact with A2DP and my BT stereo headphones.
With latest T-mobile ROM very stable.
Was given my PRO by T-mobile after my new compact turned out not be new and full of porn!!!
My contract is up in Feb and I will renew to another phone then.
If anyone interested and in London drop me a line. I work in City.
A2DP and Opera are both coming in Jan. It wont hurt to wait another 2-3 weeks
Forgot to mention that £400 includes cost of next day delivery in the UK
Cheers
Colin
Wait until Jan
Opera is coming Jan.
As is AvantGo.
Where did you read A2DP is??? this will be at vendors discression.
They could make this available only on an updated model if they so choose.

It is part of the MSA MS5.0 upgrade, but only vendors have access to this.
It is not a download. It is a ROM update.
They could make this available only on an updated model if they so choose.
Price Reduced!!!! £340 plus postage
Thought I had sold this but the buyer didn't come up with the money - so it is available for £340 plus postage for a couple of days, before I stick it on ebay.
Cheers
Colin
can u ship it to india?
i can bear the extra shipping costs...not a problem!
could you give me some more details such as how long is it since you've had it, if its unlocked or anything else you think you should tell me about
thanks!
S
It's just two months old - never been taken outside my house. All i have done is sync'd it with my Outlook and set up wi-fi partneship. I have not used it other than that as I have an XDA II which I prefer using. It is in 'As New Condition' as it's box and case etc.
