what is a SAR??? and is low good?
the SAR is the level of radiation emitted by an electronic device. the smaller the better so we are the lucky ones.
still for me seems that it's TOO low. am I missing something.
Club i-mate confirms the SAR is 0.172
Very good, no fried brains for us then!

It could very well be that the antenna is just well hidden behind other components, thereby being shielded from your head. That may be why it is getting the low SAR value.
It is indeed a good thing. One thing I do wonder about is in what configuration was this measured? Screen on the outside? Screen on the inside closed? Mini-laptop configuration?
I can imagine this making a difference in the measurement.
I am using my new MDA Pro for 2 weeks time now. And I feel that, the gsm/gprs/3G connection is not as strong as the MDA III connection.
On my way to work, i am using the train. With MDA III I am loosing the connection 2 times and on MDA Pro 5-10 times.
:shock:

Hello,
I'm really close to buying the New I-Mate Jam (128 Mb Version). I need some help in deciding what to do. I'll be solving the no wi-fi problem by putting a Spectec or Pretec Wi-fi card. I don't mind that as long as it works properly. I live in Mississaua but will be going to university in Toronto, Canada and currently i'm with Rogers.
These are my following issues which are bothering me.
1) As of now, I'm in Saudi Arabia - They have the latest Jam but not the 850 Mhz Version but the 900 Mhz Version. People who have the 900 Mhz Jam - Can you please tell me how your reception is with Rogers ? If not Rogers, Fido. - This is one huge factor as i need to know how the reception is on the 900 MHz Jam. This is really bothering me as apart from this, everything else is perfect for me.
2) I know i could go for the PDa2k which has Wifi built in and is Quad Band and has a larger display than the Jam but i like the Jam for it's size - as it's really comfortable and not huge - i don't want something huge....please give me ur opinions on this - i fear the sliding mechanism might loosen up and like the vibrant color display on the Jam whereas the PDA2k's color isn't that great.
3) I'm really confused on which Bluetooth headset to buy -
Motorola HS850 or Sony Ericsson HBH-662..
I like the Hs850 for it's style and the black color which matches the New Jam's color and looks really sleek but i heard there have been echo problems. Please Confirm this and the compatibility with the Imate Jam.
Sony Ericsson HBH-662- looks nice but don't like the style compared to the HS850 but i might go for it - i've read good things about both the headsets except that in the 662 - there's no problems and in the hs850 - there's the echo problem. - finally, is the 662 compatible with the Imate jam - does it display the caller's name?
I guess that'll be all. I'd really reallyyyyyyy appreciate it if someone could help me on this. I'm going to get some sleep. I'm going to buy it tonight. I was confused between the PDA2k and the Jam but i like the Jam for it's size and weight plus don't like the PDA2k's keyboard. If the 900 Mhz reception's really good with rogers, id go for tht otherwise i'll buy this and get fido. Please tell me what to do as im really really confused.
Thanks a lot once again.
Don't by a Qteks110, wait for 9100.

That's only if he'd like to wait for 4 months ...
If you'll be doing a bit of traveling outside of N America, I strongly recommend getting the 900 MHz model. i am with T-Mobile, and I have very few problems with reception in the US, Europe and Asia. I had trouble overseas with my old 850 MHz triband phone.
lukybandit,
I am in Victoria, B.C. but am with Rogers and my 900 Mhz model works absolutely great, very few reception problems. I have owned many pda's and phones and this little unit rocks on all of the others. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!!!! Hope this helps

Hello everybody out there,
I have recently purchased a T-mobile bundled MDA Compact III (3) alias O2 Orbit, HTC P3300, and Artetimes. I have been going through this forum to see how I can unlock the simlock: However, I did not find a specific answer. Some people have luck using xdadev_all_unlock-v1[1].6_138.exe but it seems like these people are living life dangerously – I.e. I can’t see if the developers behind the tool says that it supports the P3300. What are your suggestions for having this cell phone simunlocked freely?
Another question: Is there any difference at all between the MDA Compact III and the HTC P3300 at all? Some say the T-mobile unit does not have WiFi, is this true?
Sincerely,
Niklas Laugesen

"Vodafone Germany's online shop preview unveiled that the German carrier will launch the HTC Trinity (also known as HTC P3600) as VPA compact GPS soon. As you can see on the name affix 'GPS,' the Trinity definitely supports GPS which makes it the first 3G enabled Windows Mobile navigation device. Other features of the HTC Trinity are Windows Mobile 5.0, quadband GSM/GPRS/EDGE and 3G UMTS/HSDPA as well as W-LAN and Bluetooth and a 2.0 megapixel camera."

Yeah, I saw it on their website yesterday. Looks great. I am living in Germany and looking forward to it, but I am a little uncertain because of the "peel-off"-problem.
Mark.
Just use a silicon case
Does the german (Vodafone) VPA Compact GPS has a simlock?
I heard that only austrian decives have a netlock not the german ones. Is that right? Nobody with a german VPA Compact?
Hey there,
I ude the vodafone VPA Compact GPS....
and I can tell u that u can use every card because it is simlock free.
they sell these devices in austria? i live in austria and i have never seen a trinity for sale over here :/ bought mine in the duty free at the airport
i found a pretty good deal for an HTC Mogul online and it's branded as Sprint right now, would I be able to unlock this and use it on T-Mobile? I have a Wizard right now.
Sprint = CDMA... TMo = GSM... good luck!
that's why I asked!
The T-Mobile Wing is very similar to the Mogul, but it's a little slower. If you like the Mogul that's the closest HTC GSM phone. I've used the Wing and I like it a lot, but I like my Mogul better.

Yea I have a Wizard right now and the wing has the same processor so I'm not going to be upgrading to it, I just saw the 400mhz processor in the Mogul. Maybe I'll save my nickles and dimes and hope for a tytn

Please don't give ****ty advice -- this isn't helpful. The Wing/Atlas is quite inferior to the Mogul.
OP, the Mogul is a CDMA-based cousin of the GSM-based series of devices that have made HTC famous. The true sequel to the HTC Wizard is the HTC Hermes, and there is an absolute crapload of information available right here at xda-developers that can help you get the most out of your device if you go with a Hermes. I have two active contracts (one with T-Mobile and one with Sprint), and therefore I own both a Hermes and a Mogul/Titan. There are a couple of modest tweaks that were made to the Titan's design, but for the most part you'll see at least equivalent performance out of a Hermes.
If you've got cash to spend, I suggest hanging onto it and waiting a couple of months. The successor to Hermes, HTC Kaiser, is looming on the horizon and it offers a host of improvements over the Hermes (and the Mogul as well, for that matter -- though again, they're not direct competitors). If you live in the U.S., you'd be best-served by eBaying an AT&T/Cingular-branded Hermes (branded as the "8525") and running pof's free SIM unlocker to use it with your T-Mobile account. This is exactly what I did to use my Hermes with my T-Mobile account. I paid $400 even for a brand new Cingular-branded Hermes about six months ago, and I imagine that you could do even better today if you're savvy with eBay or through HoFo's buy/sell/trade forum. What kind of "pretty good deal" did you find on the Mogul, anyway? By all accounts, it should cost more than the Hermes.
You would be well-served by reading the wiki.
Actually, the Tytn or Kaiser would be the closest match for GSM (both can be used if unlocked with a T-mob sim card).
The Mogul (titan) works on different networks, with different protocols using different frequencies... there is no SIM card, and there is absolutely NO way in which the phone can even recognize a T-mobile tower!
Its like trying to activate one of those V-tech landline cordless phones with T-mobile... Both operate as phones, but there are just some things that are too different to ever be compatible!
if i was you zach , i would wait about 2 months for the cingular 8925 (htc tytn II) then unlock that phone and use it for t-mobile.

+1...I agree...wait.
if I were to stay with GSM I would have stay the hell away from WinMo device and go with Nokia or SE--cause you know their BT works!

why do you even post in forums like this?
For your info, winMo devices always had hella good BT- its only the mogul that's had this new problem, and its due to a software glitch with the new chipset that it uses.
Nokias and SE's are no more reliable... I had many many BT problems with my Nokia 6230 that was only fixed months later with a software update. I also had some of the older SE phones, and they worked pretty well but had awful range.
I was very happily using WinMobile on GSM, and wouldn't recommend anything else over it!

THERE'S ALSO CDMA = EvDO (FAST) AND GSM = GPRS/EDGE (SUPER-SLOW)
Ok, what does anyone think about the MDA Vario III its got a 400MHZ processor and from what I"ve heard we maybe getting this device for our newly configured 3G network .... Its a very nice device, but just wanted to know what other people think about this device .....any thoughts..prices,specs,availability,etc???
Thanks to all.
the Vario III is the HTC kaiser in a tmo name. Is the wing even available in Europe?
anyway, hardware-wise, the kaiser wins, but the "driver issue" i guess would be the deciding factor. either way, i'd go with the kaiser.

definitely agree ,but yes we will be trying to use this handset hopefully after summer due to the new 3G network trying to be a 1700 band freq...(not sure thing though) but the tilt even if unlocked isnt suppose to be able to even work on the 3G t-mobile network thats why they are suppose to bring this to us...but yes i think this is used in Europe ... but please explain what u mean aboout the driver issue??havent hear this one....thanks for the input so far.
