O2 and HTC I'd imagine

on another note.... I hope to hell its not the same price as the original XDA was when it first came out.
I dont care what anyone says... nothing of that spec is worth £500 !!!!
<hopes O2 are reading>
If they released it for what the XDA is selling for (£300 w/ contract?) then I'd definetly go for it but not much above...
I wonder how much they will sell the XDA for when the XDAII comes out?

I hope they will sell olso for outsite ... like Italy.
...and unlooked device... cause if else, we must discover how
to unlook the XDA II like first XDA.
Denis

stop selling
I bet that they stop selling the xda original. After all What extra revenue can they get from it? The new XDA II will have MMS because of the integrated camera. This is what sll the providers want. They make money from sms, gprs, mms, voice etc. That is what they are really after.
Wait and see what package they get together. £50 p/m. inclusive minutes, data, sms, mms etc... This is how they make their money...

a phone where the company sells it cheaper along with a subscription are almost certain to be simlocked

I'm quite happy to stick with their contract for a year if it means I'm getting 200 notes off the phone lol :lol:

Yeah thats 6-700 pounds UK.
Trouble is... they probably will sell it for that price with a contract on top of that !!!
Bummer - coz I'm really enjoying my XDA at the moment (got it for 150 pounds second hand) and would love the extra power. Have thought aboput going for a Toshiba e750 and a bluetooth phone - bummer on the pockets... but what else to do eh...
We'll have to sit tight and wait I guess....
What are the chances of being able to buy the base unit from HTC (without paying for the software) and *ahem* flash it with an XDA-developers ROM - or has that never been an option ??

i think i will wait until they reduce the price of the xda. at least i won't be a beta tester :wink:
regarding your question, HTC doesn't sell units to end customers. you'll only get original unflashed units, if you buy a few thousand pieces and put your own logo on it :wink:

The thing is that o2 had an agreement with the manufacturer to have some exclusivity in UK and possibly Germany for the original XDA. This is why T-Mobile have not been able to sell the MDA in UK for last two years. When there is no competition, o2 can afford to charge 300 pound +
However, the xdaII will have competition with the MDAII, the same device, but T-Mobile have got around the exclusivity issue. Hence the prices will reflect competition.

Found today an article in the internet professionell magazine. They are writing, that the XDA II will have a price of 399 Euro and will be released about one month before the mda II will do.
But they also write, that the mda II will be released at the end of october.
Question is just in which year.... :lol:

o2 XDA EXEC for sale...

I am willing to sell my XDA exec, there seems to be nothing wrong with the handset and it has been used for 1 full day for testing purposes.
I am either going to sell it privately or sell it on Ebay..
Will post to hmmmm... Worldwide? but once you buy the PDA, I am not held repsponsible if it doesn't work in your country!
Buyer will pay for sim free phone, box + accessories, shipping and handling.
Let the bidding begin!
No private messages please. Ask what you want to know here...

400 pounds?
san

how much u want for it considering everyone can buy one from o2 for about £340

£340? - how do you do that
I paid £363 total
£135 + 12X£19

I would like this phone
peteypye, I will pay 410 pounds

damn ppl you should really speak to o2 and see that will sell to u for about 340 - 370 i am looking on ebay and various other site for a bargain

Thats for ppl living in UK who can buy it with a contract!
I live in another country, and a Jasjar is my only bet...which costs 660 pounds!

Holy mutha of overpricedness...

JNR
I bought mine at JNR in NY last eek: 750$

I got it from expansys hk site for cheaper price.
http://www.expansys.com.hk/product.asp?code=127976
I paid US$660 incl. shipping. Remember to check back for the price. But never bother to ask eXpansys USA to PM if price goes lower on HK site. Place a new order instead and cancel the old one. Because eXpansys will first rise the HK price and to tell you if you want to PM their USA price which is $749.
I learned it hard way when I request them to PM their own price aroung US$600.

So you buy the Dopod 818.
Did you pay any taxes?
Shay what is JNR?

Where to buy an O2 XDA ATOM?

Hi guys im after an O2 Atom or HP version of it, can some one recommend a website (besides fromebay) that I can buy this from?
Thanks

Well, there aren't really that many places that will ship to the UK, and provide a really good price for an Atom.
I was hoping to get mine from expansys, but, I ended up buying of ebay.
Although I did, I got it for the cheapest price, brand new shipped from Japan, and had it within 5 days of purchase.
It comes with the full O2 warranty too, which was a plus, and I've had no problems with my Atom since I got it.

Is this phone sim locked? What cost would be good to buy from Ebay!

Cradle & Battery for Atom
Hi socialworkersmith,
Spare battery for Atom is available, however, first time to hear cradle for Atom - is that official item from O2 or just 3rd party stuff?

I'm in Hong Kong rite now....went to Mongkok the other nite, and saw the myraid of handphones from everywhere...yup, and the WHITE Atom (otherwise officially named as Atom PURE) is in town.
I believe the functionality is the same as the original ATOM, just colour wise, it is pure gleaming white.
Is USD760 from those shops in Mongkok? Heard most items selling there are parallel imports, stolen or 2nd-hand. So buyers beware.

Hi henrylim,
Go to big chain store like Fortess, Broadway, CSL, PCCW, etc. The normal price range is now HK$5,600-5,900.
As always, do pay special attention if the selling price is significantly & suspiciously lower than normal range - that is true anywhere in the world.

Hi henrylim,
Go to big chain store like Fortess, Broadway, CSL, PCCW, etc. The normal price range is now HK$5,600-5,900, absolutely trust-worthful!!
As always, we have to pay special attention if selling price is significantly & suspiciously lower than normal range - either you are smart enough or others are smarter than you...... normally, it is the latter case :wink:

I bought mine together with a Kingston 1 GB flash card at US$ 750 in HK, in that large computer store... you know where it is, don't you?

Need Advice In Italy

A friend of mine was just in from Milan..
She loved my Hermes so much she wants one.
What is the best place to get it in Milan and what does it cost?
From what I saw online they are over 500 Euro..
Is it cheaper for me to get a Cingular 8525 here and unlock it for her..
Or are there better places to pick one up.
Thanks,
-j

Hi.....I live in Italy (Florence) but I bought an Orange spv m3100 UK four months ago...saved a lot of money and imho it's much better than the official HTC TyTN

the official italian distributor of HTC is DANGGARD. She can bought it online from the ecomm site:
http://www.pocketdevice.it/
this is the preferred place as:
- the price is the same of nomatica and expansys (other 'italian' ecomm site selling the tytn), around 750euro (!!)
- the maintenance is serviced directly from them

i live in italy too (rome) and as "luchino san" I also preferred to buy my hermes in UK (through ebay) and i got a m3100 (better looking than HTC, IMHO). In italy official price is 750 euro but you can find it in some shops at around 650 euro, while through ebay i got it at about 500 euro (including express delivery costs). Only downside: warranty.

"Official way" (1) - "Unofficial way" (2)
No comment about the quality of dangaard service...don't make me laugh!

Sounds like it is cheaper for me to pick it up for her here in the US and unlock it.
Yikes.. 750 Euro...
Direct from Cingular with no Contract is 550 US...
Add in the Conversion rate.. Plus no VAT.. Although Tax is 8.75% or so..
Still a huge savings..
No front Camera on the Cingular one.. but I don't think she cares..

I think she will care instead!
Here in Italy we have 3 carriers with videotelephony
