My JAM served me perfectly for a almost a year and now it's time to move on. Just sold it and ordered ETEN M500. I've got a bit tired of iMATE's position in OS upgrades, first with my XDA2 not having 2003 SE and now JAM with no 2005. Also, cripled BT, no voice dialing possibility also was a big factor for me. ETEN is using MS BT stack and does have this feature. Let's see how it performs in person. I am willing to help you guys with getting BT stack from ETEN working on JAM. Let me know if you need anything.
BTW, moderators, is that possible to create another forum here dedicated to ETEN?
Why order the M500 now and not wait a few months for the M600? Please post your findings on the M500 though as I'd love to hear how good / bad it is.

Because in few months my JAM will be older few months and I wouldn't be able to sell it for a good price. M600 doesn't impress me much over M500 - same memory size, same CPU, same look ( I am not big fan of black color either). Only WiFi. But I don't care about it much. If I really need one I have WiFi SD card ( which I maybe used once in 6 month). Price for m500 is good now and Windows 2005 upgrade is officially anonced for it.
My unit should be here on Tuesday. I'll let you know how it goes.
I'd love to yell at you for deserting HTC, but I am afraid you are doing the right thing. Darned...

Since you don't use WiFi, I think you made a very good move.

You can always get a really short Sceptre 802.11b Wi-Fi card from MadMonkeyBoy (http://www.dweiniger.com).
ID64... so how's the Eten coming along?
As I read on some reviews, Windows Mobile 5 is not the leap we are all waiting for. Or to be more specific: The leap I am waiting for.
I am happy with my Magician and I have not seen features that would make me switch to WM5 or another device with WM5.
The main thing for me is stability first, features second.
I don't want to be a beta tester for WM5, being an early adopter, life is hard enough ;-)

Not here yet :? Tomorrow
m500??????
m500?
what make is it?
can someone post a link or tell me who make's them.
thanks in advance.
jaykummar, the make is E-TEN. If you do a search in google for E-TEN M500 you'll get lots of info.
Alas, I think we may be asking too much to open an "Eten" thread in an XDA forum...
I'll try other PDA forums. 8)
i've been using the O2 mini for a couple of month & have done all the upgrades that are mentioned in this forum.
I still belive that HTC can make a lot of improvements for all its products coz we all pay a reasonable high price for them.
I am quite happy with my mini but i still think it is a jack of all trades master of none.
I therefore decided to make a list of some of the shortcommings..
i hope most members will add to this & hopefuly HTC may deliver us a better product.
here goes
QVGA screen for 256k res
Bigger Rom
More RAM
Faster Processor
WI-FI
USB2.0
Better quality of speakers..Sterophonic sound is bad/jars[look at sonyericsson/nokia]
Better lens for camera[sonyeric again!]
Better software for camera
FM radio
this is just for starters...
regards all,
frz
O2 Atom???
Regards,
Arto.
Well it seems to me that the newer devices are more to your specs.
Don't get me wrong in this, I agree with your list. & I'm very curious what next year will bring us.
regards, M
Are you guys sure you are in the right forum ?
This is Universal Forum and not Magician
Cheers

Yup I'm sorry, noticed it that too, maybe a mod can 'move' it to the magician forum.
I have a Boss GT-76h hoover. Do You know which are the best settings for the dust bag? It stucked hoove-loader mode. Anybody has the latest DustiveSync? I'm using 0.004beta. I'd like to buy PollenCommander 2.4, I hope it will solve the problem.
Hi T,
That pollen extension is very good, I'm using it for three weeks & no allergic reactions anymore. Where did you get DustiveSync 0.004beta? I used 0.001beta and that was so sluggish and hard to get rid of too :-( Now I use a thirdparty sync called MustSync but that only works when connected to an AC socket, very strange. I did manage to get 1200rpm though with it & that's only 50% performance decrease, so I'm very pleased afterall.
If you have any great tips for the Boss GT-76h then post them pls, maybe we can even get a forum for it!
Ciao, M
Hi Oltp!
I bought DustiveSync on the PollenGear.com. You can find it if you put it to the Search. Buy it now this is on a special sale, just 1359$!!!
Yes I heard that problem about MustSync, but the only method to work with it is to upgrade your hoover's SocketRadio ROM, but a lot of people said it is a lot more expensive with the electricity costs.
PollenGear.com ? Oooh man that's so obvious, I feel so stupid should have known that. I usually go to VacuShop.nl great service next day delivery, in Dutch though. Those guys from DustiveSync are good, they even sell there beta's?? I tried my beta for free 9 months ago. Am I saying 9 months funny my wife birth to an elephant last week.
Can it be?
BTW ever been to dust-developers.com? Great forum full of tips & well can't say that without being a sexist, check it out yourself I'd say.
I've got to pass on the special offer, last month I did a wireless extension for $750 & now I can't afford much more.
See you, M
Yes, They sell beta's. After Macrodust Loosedows products they diceded to make unfair businesses like them. For this news leader of Macrodust ( Kill Bates ) had a terrible reaction: they suspended Loosedows XP's selling and prohibited any using it. After that PollenGear.com site was crashed, and Macrodust had hoovered all the remaining software-dust from the internet.
Now Macrodust's saying: We are laughing at the end!
Yeah I guess they've won, they really crushed a lot of others. Don't like all off the MacroDust products, but I secretly admire Kill Bates. What ever he does, he does very good, really kills every other in the market. I'm way to soft for that. I probably have other capabilities, probably :-( not so sure anymore after crashing my previous, known indestructible, PowerDust G4. It was really blown to pieces after the modded cooling was replaced. Took me a fair two days to get a new hoover & remove all partikels.
One last question did you try VacuPal?
Best regards, M
Yes
Apparently no one likes our discussion, it counts > 130 views & only two contributors. So I'll go & entertain some others. Maybe less off-topic.
BTW Budapest is a nice city, been there a few times for business at Metro 7 years ago.
Cheers, M

Yes, our capital city is a very nice place. I live here on the top of one of the cities mountains. There are a lot of beautiful top-view in Budapest like ours.
Don't worry about these off-posts, all this thread is a HUGE off-thread.
Oh I'm not worried. It was frz who was having an off-day posting this Magician topic on an Universal board ;-)
Too bad I quit working with the company I worked for at that time, otherwise I could have easily visited you someday. Now we don't travel that far for holidays, three little kids in the car isn't a pleasure on a long journey.
Sounds like you're living on a good spot.

Just a few words...to say a big thanks to this forum - I´ve learnt a lot from here and tried to give back to the community as much as I could. My Prophet was stolen last week, and I replaced it...with a Nokia E61 PDA. Finally Nokia has a real Symbian OS9 V3 business PDA, and I don´t have to bother with Win Mobile 5 anymore. Only feature missing is A2DP, but Nokia will deliver with next firmware update. Take a closer look at this model, if you want to do serious business comms. Prophet was great, but I need UMTS data now. Good luck to all of you, and keep up the good community work. BTW HTC will soon also sell under it´s own brand...Dopod ))
Well I'm sorry you had to downgrade 8)
Sorry to hear you had to downgrade due to a stolen Prophet!...
Hi guys,
I got a call and midnight from my friend in Europe somewhere who told me that he is having a hermes in his hand which is running cross bow..now I asked him to take the pics and mail it to me..these are all attached..so I guess the OS exists and our heroes can only get to us..
Cool!
that was great news,,,hope it will be released officialy soon!
Wow!
What a exciting news!
Guys, get ready big socks and wait for our Santa Claus soon!
Can you ask him where he got that ROM from? was it an update? or what it stock?
You need to get a ROM dump from him for us to use!
Cool! Get a rom dump!!
why not a screenshot of his system properties!!

I cant believe it...

The device is ORANGE branded. So, we can expect something from Orange UK soon....
I'ts probably not his own device, i think he attended some trade show or an internal presentation or demonstration of some kind.
Too bad he didn't have Buzz's invisible rom dumper at hand...
Holy Cr&p! Crossbow on a hermes first.... DUH!
I.... must.... have..... this.....
Crossbow for hermes
Could it be the reason why HTC had not released any AKU 3.x upgrade yet?
Gimme !
All I can say is just let those OEM's and other people give it to us before Sinterklaas (dutch Santa) leaves.
Ask the guy to send in this phone we'll buy a new one for him
Encore ! Nog ! Bis ! More !
Surely this is very big news? I hope we can be kept updated on whether a rom can be acquired. I remember the fiasco over WM5 for the Magician... the community went crazy waiting for further news from a number of leads that turned out to lead nowhere.
you know what. i am thinking of buying a hermes instead of buying a universal...
That is very very cool! Hopefully someone can get this for us!
Htc Oficial? Impossible!
Sorry Guy, but HTC is a pain in the ass about Upgrating OS. Just look at the past, THEY NEVER RELEASE A WINDOWS MOBILE CORE VERSION UPGRADE. They just want you to buy a new device... as always.. Mayve someone can grab directly from the device, I will talk tomorow with Microsoft Mobiles BG, maybe He can help us... but HTC? ha ha ha, they are savy
Yet Crossbow apparently exists for the Hermes. At MEDC 2K6, all the M$ engineers were sporting Wizards. The Hermes front camera plays well with M$ 2K7 collaboration plans too so they may be behind the Crossbow development on this hardware. This could trump the Upgrade-hardware-to-obtain-crossbow rationale...
I hear that AKU3.3 will arrive just after christmas for the hermes.
What are your sources?
Don't mean to poop on everyone's parade, but I can take pictures of my PDA running Crossbow, too. There are screenshots of Crossbow available on the web. All I would have to do is download one to my PDA, open the image in Resco Photo viewer, and make the image full screen...
I hope this isn't a fake.
Dear all,
After 'accidentally' upgraded my oldie but goodie Dopod C800 to WM6 (P4350) yesterday, I'm becoming more and more interested in pushing my unit to reach its best performance
As I'm a total noob in this world, I seek your guidance to help me deciding which way to take next.
For those of you gurus who have the same device as i have, could you be so kind to recommend me the best mix for my baby
Wake up my little buddy, it's time for you to get out of the drawer and smell the fresh air
Thanks in advance!
