looking for spv m500 in US

ok, its time for me to get new phone...i want the orange spv m500. i think it looks better than jam or mini. im having hard time looking for this in US ebay. they have it in uk ebay, but most of them are not willing to send it to US. anybody knows where i can get this. if not i have to get jam or mini. thanks

The Krome Spy (in Austrailia) and the Dopod 828 (Far East??) have the same casing as the Orange SPV M500 so you might be able to pick up one of those.
Hope this helps.

yeah, but still can not find thoese on the net.

GPS Receiver for JASJAR and Brodit Holder

What you want to buy is one of these. Now my JASJAR runs TOMTOM while sitting in my Brodit charging nicely with no worry of Bluetooth GPS running out of power. MINT

I believe that the original OP has said that he is using this on a universal with WM5!

Am I being dim or wouldn't this sit at the bottom of the device when using the exec in portrait mode? I'm assuming that the Brodit holder can cater for this?

Yes it would sit at the bottom. The Brodit has no problem with this.

Can anyone confirm that this works on the exec and wm5 as neither are listed as supported/compatable.

If you look here: http://www.usglobalsat.com/item.asp?itemid=17&catid you will find you can download the NEW driver with WM5 support.
Take a look at the picture. Sweet! I know the GPS isn't plugged in, but it soon will be.

Looks good..
They were quick with the new driver!!
Let us know how it works with the Exec as my money is burning a hole in my pocket!

what about haicom-405 BT?

Alanplum - I have just brought a SD-502 to go with my O2-Exec - can you tell me what settings you used in GPS Info to get it working...or if you did anything else because i am struggling!
Thanks!

GAAAAAAHHH! Just received my SD-502 today and it does NOT work with the JASJAR. It is a driver problem. Lets hope they bring out a new one soon. It works with my PDA2k.

Received this from US Globalsat:
In reply to your original inquiry... We do have a plan to have sd-502 support PDAs manufactured by HTC( High Tech Corp.)In which, i-Mate Jasjar is part of.
Unfortunately, we do not produce the Sd-502 drivers. These drivers are developed by a third party software company. In result, we can't control the development schedule. Therefore, its difficult to predict driver releases

Confused - Imate JAMin

Was reading through another forum today and someone was asking about the O2 Atom and I-Mate JAMin. I knew about the atom but hadn't heard anything about the JAMin :shock:
Thought I'd do a search on the trusty xda-developers forum and found it actually comes under this group why??? isn't it just the replacement of the Jam as the Atom is to the mini?? and therefore part of the magician threads?
Anyway looks like some resaerch for me :wink:

I don't know what are you going to research, but JAMin is a different device with different hardware and different operating system from JAM.
HTC JAMin name is Prophet, this is why it is found here.

And the Atom is not the replacement of the mini. At least, what I mean is that it is a totally different device. the atom is made by quanta, the mini by htc.

Should I buy the Atom?

Hi All,
I appreciate all your help with this. I currently own a Magician and love the size factor of the Atom. Is everyone happy with their Atom and would you recommend getting one. I know the new ROM upgrade makes a huge difference in performance speed and such. Also, I read somewhere that the Atom does not have a button lock so you can only have the power on button work(have it in your pocket and not accidentally dial out, that sort of thing) Is this so, and if so has the new Rom upgrades added this feature or is there a way around it.
Thanks so much in advance.
Todd
I also forgot to ask: I have just downloaded the new Windows Vista and there is no longer activesync but a new program. Has anyone had any experience with Vista and will their Atom still sync?

Update the Vista using windows update and you will get the mobile sync function. Does not use activesync anymore. Read this info somewhere here :roll:

You might want to reconsider the Atom. Consider a Prophet or Wizard

Hmm...Why?!Are you used all this devices?I sure that you does not... :wink: Atom better,faster and more usefull (but also more expensive) than both Prophet and wizard.
If you like atom go and get one (or HP 6828 if you like it more),one device that may be better (if you realy need keyboard) and can also be considered its new 9600 (Hermes) - also great device,by far better than 9100 (wizard)

Well the Atom Exec release date is 4th July and it will be retailing for a price of $1130 and that include Bluetooth headset and IR keyboard. so your problem might well be solved, if you dont mind a matte grey case and dont mind paying an extra $280 over the HP then the Exec could be your bet.

I have used the K-Jam and the JAmin (Prophet and wizard) and currently having the Atom, can not compare, it is a lot better, faster, and more stable and has got more features. I rarly soft reset it.
I will hold on to it for a while

Atom
Thanks all for your advice,
I did buy the Atom and love it. Far superior to my old Magaician. Its love again!
Todd

Like Todd, I'm looking to upgrade my magician, I was looking at the Hermes, but I don't really want a real keyboard, but the Hermes looked to have all the right functions. Having look around, and getting confused by other brand names this is what I have concluded.
The prophet is the same as the wizard but without a keyboard, so hopefully the Atom is the same as the Hermes but also without a keyboard. I can't find any reviews to confirm my hunch so I hope someone can answer my question or tell me where I can look.
All I want is WM5, built in wifi, and fast (400 Mhz +) processor.
Does Atom have a jog dial like the Hermes?
What type of memory card.
Thanks in advance

fingers88,
the atom is its own brand (not htc) I have had it for over a month now and it rocks. kicks butt on the magician. it
is mini sd and no jog but it is not missed, buy it, you will be glad you did.
Todd

Iam an atom user... have been for 1 month...
and I have fallen in love with it...
it's my mobile buddy... a welcome upgrade from my xda2 since I divorced the love relationship, because it was too damn huge!
I recently dropped it from 5 ft to a stone tiled hotel bathroom and it survived 100%... just like my xda2 has done...
also a great thing about the atom is it hasa notch/hook on the top left corner for a lanyard... it is an ideal size for a lanyard too.
i've some major scratchesonthe plastic... but idont care about them... the screen is finewith a protector.

JAMin / SVP M600 / S200 ... identical?

Hi,
Firstly, I'm new to this forum, so hello to everyone! It looks like a place I'll visit often
I recently bought a 2nd hand i-mate JAMin. I'd never used a PDA/mobile combo before and now I have one I love it! But I've only had it a week and yesterday the screen broke!
I was looking for replacement screens on ebay - I found a company that sold many types of replacement lcd but I couldn't see i-mate JAMin in their list - I emailed them to ask if they stock any and they simply replied "no, we don't". Then I learned that the JAMin is an HTC Prophet and that this is also sold as the "Orange SVP M600" and the "Qtek S200". This very same ebay seller *does* sell replacement screens for the Orange SVP M600!!! - they currently have 10 in stock!
If I buy an Orange SVP M600 screen will it fit my i-mate JAMin, or not?
Same goes for the Qtek S200 ... can I use the screen (or case / battery etc.) from a Qtek S200 in my i-mate?
Finally - yesterday I saw some step-by-step photo instructions on how to disassemble the JAMin and replace the screen. It looks a bit tricky but I reckon I can manage it. However, the written instructions were in a foreign language... does anyone have a link to a good quality disassembly guide? (and can anyone let me know what type of screwdriver I need to undo those little hexagonal screws?)
EDIT: I found this link elsewhere on this site http://www.modaco.com/content/prophet-prophet-modaco-com/240109/changing-you-prophet-case/
Thanks in advance for any help or advice!

I emailed that ebay shop again asking if they are sure that their Orange SVP M600 replacement LCDs would not be compatible with my i-mate JAMin since both PDAs are an HTC Prophet inside. This is the reply I got ...
The ribbon colours can be different, so these LCD are not the same.
But we just got in stock lcd for Jamin, so you can order this Orange SPV M600 replacement LCD display screen and make note that this should be for JAMIN and we will pick correct ribbon colour
Click to expand...

Does this "ribbon colour" thing fit with anyone else's experiences?
It seems a bit odd that the day I ask if JAMin and SVP M600 screens are the same they suddenly get stock of JAMin screens and they want me to order a JAMin screen by buying a SVP M600 screen and telling them it's for JAMin!
Either way, I'm currently bidding on a different 'spare-screen' auction... if I don't win that I guess I'll order from these guys in the way they've described.
