--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I am a phone lover. I spend enough money on them, I average buy a phone a month, though my wife hates it with a passion. But it is a habbit I have had since my first mobile in 1992.
I have a load more but it would liteally fill up a couple of pages. I am the same with my laptops thus the apt name apple_power.

Whats the difference between the I-mate jam and the Qtek s100. I was told they are identical, which iis better, and I heard that the Qtek s100 has no vibration is this true?
I-Mate gives 24H, 7days a week / 365 days a year, support by phone etc.
there is no diffrence between MDA/M500/I-mate/Qtek S100/VPA
(only the simlock from T-mobile, Vodafone and Orange

BE AWARE! Qtek support is NON EXISTANT!
In fact, Expansys offers you Qtek units instead of I-mate ones, because they are short of supplies from I-mate.
Is the lack of support a big deal? I mean won't most people go to a forum first anyway?
I was thinking of getting the qtek myself and removing the logo, as Qtek is a crappy name in all honesty.
Do they still provide prompt firmware upgrades? And you can still flash I-mate roms can you not?
Also in the UK at least the warranty offered on the Qtek is 2 years, as oppose to 1 on the I-mate. According to the sales pitch on some the sites at least.

Well, forums are OK, I'm here too, but, What happens if your device language is not in the forum? And, of course, your 2 year warranty will be NOTHING once you tweak your phone.

I did it too, once I found Qtek support does not exist.

If you are not an i-mate owner (valid IMEI), you can not download legally the new upgrades, so back to the warranty issue.

You are lucky, I bought my Qtek through Expansys one and a half year ago, and haven't found yet where to send it for servicing. And no, don't try internet, it is NOT there. Qtek do not provide service even for its own named phones, when sold in another country.
All said, even my carrier, Telefónica, DO NOT support the devices from HTC It re-brands as TSM. You can NOT get even a simple battery!

Hi!
No need to be so rude.
In fact it should be a misspelling, cause the SPV M500 is the same as Magician, and the SPV C500 is the Smartphone. It is just a letter, M or C, as you can see in http://www.msmobiles.com/news.php/3768.html
BTW, their performances are not so different, I have them both now...
:wink:
If you have a problem with the QTEK device, just contact expansys and they would arrange support for you as they were the place of purchase, if they were unable to help at least they would point you in the right direction.

T-Mobile sells it as MDA-Pro
Er... yes. Since the MDA Pro has been sold for many weeks now - and that the MDA IV name was dropped months ago - how could you possibly think this is news worth telling? :roll:
I think he was refering to the forum subtitle: "the Universal will be sold as the qtek 4040, xda-IV, SPV M5000, mda-IV, imate 2005, and others."
The only one that is correct is the SPV M5000
exactly, I was referring the subtitle of this forum. I know it was meant to be called mda pro by t-mobile, but this name was dropped ages ago. when i got my device in july 2005 it was already called mda-pro.
Who are the prophet owners on this forum then?
I'm one
Is it the same JAMin?
I'm Jamin :wink:
I've got one
I'm not JAMin....I'm Dopod'in (818Pro)....

Sion's Jamin to
Yeh the Wizards just gone to ebay heaven, and sions Jamin/Neoing & Propheting or whatever to, and I tell you what no bigger than a Nokia N70 and twice the power, now if Krusell would release one of there great wallets for the prophet just like the one for the magician I would be in PDA heaven, however I don't think it will long,
Regards Ashe.

You go the Jamin already? Or is it pre-ordered?
where can i order at a good price that ships to the UK?
also in english?
me 2 (jamin)
played aruond for 2 days now.. very very promising so far.
Yea im jammin tooooo
has anyone tried running tomtom on it?
Got my new Jamin this morning...very cool. For those Jam/Magician owners that might be wondering, the battery is the same and the silicone case fits on the Jamin perfectly.
JAMin, JAMin, I hope this JAM is going to last!
I am using dopod 818 pro
JAMIn from expansys for £440 inc p&p.
Got Tom Tom 5.21 running on it after a bit of struggle. Runs okay, a bit slower starting up and planning routes than the MDA Compact. Just as fast if you overclock it.

From what I've read here so far, it seems like the US T-Mobile MDA is pretty much the same as the German T-Mobile MDA Vario??
I will be looking at different websites to find reasonable priced MDA... my question is, if I ended up buying a german MDA Vario, will it work here in the USA (GPRS, EDGE, etc etc) with the american T-Mobile SIM Card? Reason I asked is because I had learned my lesson from the previous purchasing of a german Sidekick 2 which did not work for the GPRS (Data-wise), only the phone/SMS portion worked on the US T-Mobile.
mmm 26 views and no comments or ideas? Will I habe to be the one to go out on limb, try and see what happens?? :lol:
If the same phone is available locally to you, why would you buy one from Germany ?!
He is right why would you buy the phone oversees when you can get it here and probably cheaper...

8) Great minds
Okay guys, heres one for you...
as some of you may know, i currently have a wizard, well an o2 mini-s to be exact, and am due to upgrade, change soon.....
I've have a number of smartphone/pda's in the past starting with the SPV E200, then the E500 then the SPV M1000 (Xda II) then jumped to the XDA Exec, which i sold and got a XDA Mini s.
I don't really want to go to anything bigger than the mini-s and like the slide out keyboard, kinda rules out the xda atom, SPV M600 etc etc
My question is, what is the main difference (apart from colour) of the 3 main hermes devices marketed at the minute.
Is anyone better than the other or is it all just down to bundled software and case colour......
I'm thinking of the SPVm3100 as i like the colour but dunno wheather to wait for o2 to launch the Trion in this country ???
any advice would be helpful.
It is very unlikely that O2 will ever release the Trion in this country, despite what others might say. Do you honestly think that O2 would wait so long?
The Hermes you have in this country are pretty much it, it really depends on what services you want. If you want a locked down device then go for Orange, an unlocked device with very little extra stuff loaded go for the v1605/TyTYN or if you want a device with bugundy go for the Vario II.

Thanks for the reply... locked down can be fixed surely... it hasn't been an issue in any other xda's so far.....
I do know the orange is a good looking device especially in the black... might have to bite the bullet and go back to orange...
I've had the chance to really put the M3100 and Vario II through its paces.
I found the M3100 to be faster and also damn good looking compared to the ugly duckling the Vario.
Almost everything else is the same.
Hope that helps.

Not yet, other than by convincing your operator to do it (unlikely), or by paying £20 to an online unlocking service.

Thanks for that... I had the SPV E200, C500 and M1000 through orange and had no problem apart from i found that the signal strength where i lived wasn't up to much.
BTW Does the SPV M3100 take mini sd or the new stupid sized micro sd..
hope it's mini as i've just had to buy one recently for my mini s.... i've now got a 1gb sd card which is no good, i don't want a 1gb mini sd that won't be any use either
Sorry to say its Micro SD on the Hermes.
Hi,
here in germany the best choice is the MDA Vario II from t-mobile.
The reason is, that t-mobile is the only provider that supports HSDPA (1,8 mbit i think).
Hope it helps,
Thomas
