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".

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.

Hey all,
My HTC uni was sent to the shop for repairs. So, I bought a backup unit to use when it happens again. Let's just say the two new roomies got along very well...

That's prolly the best use of two universals i've ever seen

humping universals which one is the male?
:shock: dude if you have to ask which one is the male....well that's just sad!
So, it will be like what.. after 9 months, you will have a new Universal-mini for free?

Remember the HTC branded devices, though SIM unlocked, are still CID locked, you can CID unlock it in stages 2 and 3......just a thought......though im sure HardSPL reports SuperCID regardless if olipro has used the same format as with the trin and herm versions.

I am thinking about selling the galaxy 3 and I was wondering how much money I could get for it? It's untouched, unlocked and with a new battery, and I would install the stock froyo on it. In euros would be easier for me.
Just check on ebay but i think it's pretty worthless. Maybe £25 if you're really lucky so i think you should just keep it and wait for JB
Click thanks if I helped.
In it's last days the g3 was priced at Rs.9,000 (~150-160$) Now it would be absolutely worthless and I doubt there would be any customer to buy it. I am using it as an autofocus webcam nowadays

I got mine for £80 one year and 2-3 months ago and thats equivalent to €100 (i think). The price has decreased by a LOT because the hardware is outdated and android phones are improving and being released so quickly. Also, it's not oficially sold anymore.

It's not worthless! I mean, you can do anything with it. Hardware is outdated, but for me that only counts if you want to play HD games or record HQ video.
Perfect phone, GPS navigation, everyday camera, email client, mp3 player, social media stuff, etc. Kudos
As for the price, german Amazon's got it for 190€, a good used one on ebay is 50€ or so. Seems pretty much if I compare to other numbers here...
Well, if somebody still lives in Mumbai, India, this phone is available in R City Mall Croma for some 8~9,000.

I live in England but I've been India twice so i'm familiar with the currency conversion and i have to say, whoever is selling that is ripping you off so badly! I got mine 1 year and 2 months ago for less than that! And i got it brand new from a respected retailer that works all over the UK
