hello.......
i was wondering does any body know when this XDA 2 is meant to be coming out, i know it is "before christmas", but i need a more accurate date, beacuse i really want my XDA now and im not sure whether i should just get the XDA 1 now......any ideas?
also, how much will the XDA 2 be on contract? Any good ideas will be welcome...
Thanks in advanced

hi there, I kind of had the same dilemma, but damn it I've got the XDA now.. :wink:
My guess is that the price will be prohibitively expensive at first, and may not be on contract straight away as a result, so you could be waiting a while, there are some good deals around on the XDA now - are you UK ?
Personally I'm thinking of taking the plunge next year, but I'll be waiting until the XDA2 has been around a while like I did with this.. but then will there be something else around the corner ?
yeah...that makes sense...
i really need it now....mainly beacuse i have a lack of a mobile
i am in the uk yes.....where are the best deals then? any good websites? how much you pay for yours?
i will probably by it on contract from o2........
thanks for your help
jay
no worries mate - glad to help..
yeah same again - I needed a mobile and liked the idea of e-mail, but couldn't quite get my head around that plasticky P800.. If you can stand the ribbing from your mates at first, and get yourself one of the ROMS you have got loads of cool stuff..
As for deals, I got my for 209.99 - Although I'm sure thats going down, I price-matched at CPW from a shop in Guildford who had a deal for 235, somehow they went even lower than the price-match to my delight ! (but I have heard that o2/CPW might be dropping the XDA - making an early release on contract for the XDA2 even less likely)
I have 2 XDA's 1 is mine and I have a spare for sale it is ulocked so can be used on any network it also has the latest ROM and Radio Stack.
If you are interwsted let me know by email or post.
Regards your question I contacted O2 they said middle to late December
or early Jan It has a camera as well as Bluetooth. So I am expecting it to be very expensive.
got my XDA for £190 boxed as new was an ex display model had been dropped and had 2 dents abover the ir lens came with everything.
got it from ebay sim free about 9 months ago :\
You can get an XDA from £59.99 depending on contract from:

Translated to english.......
got mine for £200 off ebay.. boxed and unused
hmm this XDA2 is lookin' pretty good I have to say....
If you go to ebay and search for XDA, you will find a guy selling o2 contract xda phones for £149.
I found out today that the XDA2 will be available in the UK in november there is no idea of price, thay also confirmed that bluetooth is built in and not a add-on option like the WiFi is
XDA II Mini ROM upgrade question
Hi all,
I have a XDA Mini II and am trying to use GoTalkMobile. The software tells me that my GPRS settings are incorrect.
All WAP sites work for me, however I am unable to use this Midilet. Please help!!
Check Ebay under the name microbomb, I'll be listing 6 or 7 used but fully functional demo XDA IIs for a $600 buy now price. There's one on there right now that doesn’t have a battery or any OS loaded for $350. Ill be listing the other ones shortly so if you want a good deal check it out.
someone bought the one wiht no OS, the others will be posted soon
Hi,
When you listing the other ones? I'm looking into getting one of these.
thanks
Hey guys, ok sorry it took so long, but I now have one xda II posted on ebay under Crimsondie. I cant do Buy now auctions because im new at ebay and I guess I have to sell 10 items before I can do that so I set the price at $600 and made it a short auction. Good luck. :wink:
I'm lost.
Your first account has 18 feedback which means you could do a Buy It Now. But now you switched to an account that has been dead since Jan/Feb or something.
What's the catch? Who on this board has actually bought from you? Can we get testimonials? I think it is only fair since you are selling out of warranty (how can that be when it's only a demo) and old ROM devices.
Hello all, first of all I want to say that I am not working for, nor have i any links with this company. I currently have a Wizard which has just bricked out of the blue and I cannot even start it.
So, I have spent the last few days trawling the threads on this great site, looking for good reviews about the p3600. I noticed a few people talking about Expansys and their delays in stock, thats where I bought my wizard. Anyway, to cut the story short, I have literally just bought the P3600 in black from the following site for £380. They are waiting on stock of the White one but I'm more than happy now and at over £20 quid cheaper than the nearest other shop, its gotta be good.
Site: https://www.superetrader.co.uk//index.php
Guess i'll be starting all over again on the Trinity threads instead of the Wizard.
I bought the P3600 2 weeks ago from http://www.handtec.co.uk/, they are selling at £380 as well...Handtec is one of the recommanded resellers listed in the HTC website, n that's how I found it...I received the device 2 days after the purchase, even I only paid for the cheapest shipping...hope this gives u another option...
Hi! I'll be visiting UK for 3 days and I want to buy one P3600. Which internet company do you suggest for one day delivery. Because I have no time (1. day arrival, 2. day training 3. day afternoon departure)
I've 2 left, already sold one to a member of the forum and he's happy.
£320, tell me if interested
One day delivery

Hello there,
If i were you then i would check out the sites which have a next day delivery, order it before you travel and have it delivered to the address you are staying at.
Failing that, I think you could check if some of these places have a pick up service. Best of luck anyway.
Hi guys, i know this is not a normal question in these forums but i don't know where else to look.
apart from ebay, is there any other way an australian can get their hands on an htc x7501?
any help is appreciated.
thanx in advance
After extensive searching, the only place I found was ebay. Also, just making sure that you know the X7501 does not have a front camera for video calls. Only the X7500 does.
that would be because the X7501 is only for the North American Market, the X7500 is for the rest of the world, but obviously it depends on orders from the retailers and networks as to whether the distributors will bother to import it.
i would say Ebay all the way, or from a reputable worldwide online retailer such as expansys or someone similar.

WHy do you want a 7501 rather than a 7500? Did you realise the 7501 is the same but just missing the front camera?
Unfortunately, when I asked the same question of HTC on Oct 24, they replied "
"There is no plans for a release of HTC Advantage X7500/X7501 at this current stage. The shift is due for release last quarter of this year, hopefully this will suite your requirements."
The Shift doesn't suit my requirements so I ordered a 7501 from Mobileplanet - it arrived yesterday!
I asked HTC where I could buy Dopod U1000 back in March this year. They replied that they will not be sellin this device in Australia and New Zealand.
They said the Telco in Australia wanted to charge them an arm and leg for 'testing fee', which HTC refused to pay.
So I got mine from Singapore, and found out that no testing is needed. It just worked.
I don't see SHIFT doing well at all in Australia. It's too small to be used as a Vista machine but too big to be carried around. It's too battery poor, and too slow. I do see Advantage/Athena doing very well in Australia. It is almost a perfect device.
Thanx for the reply guys. i know the differences between the x7500 and x7501 but the increase in price just for the front camera is not justified. i dont use video call anyway.
i'll check out mobileplanet, how much did you pick it up for?
also fixerboy, how long did it take to be sent to you from the day you ordered it? and how much was the combined price with shipping in AUD? was there any customs fees?
thanx
Approx $A1200 inc shipping and a 4 in 1 cable - Ordered approx 10 days ago - said backlog was until Nov 22 but the day before yesterday, the tracker said it was backlogged for 9 days - then it showed up yesterday so approx 12 days from order to arrival.
excellent news. i might order it today. i had a look through the checkout process, do you remember which shipping option you chose? in other words, which ones apply to australia? is "rest of the world - 3 - 4 days" the only option available to australians?
also, how did you pay? credit card, wire transfer?
thanx

thanx for the reply, uve been very helpful
Hey guys, as the popular term goes, I'm a long time lurker, first time poster and have to say what an awesome section this is! I was hesitant after bad reviews whether or not to get this bad boy, but after reading countless positive opinions on this forum I have decided to take the plunge. My only question is, do you guys think it's safe to get it off eBay for 400$au? It just seems very cheap and I want to know it's factory unlocked and not hacked before I get it, thanks in advance and keep up the good work!

eBay comes with buyer protection anyway so you won't loose your money
just check the sellers feedback score and histroy, if it seems to be too good to be true!!
i brought my xperia play from ebay and was perfectly fine just sim locked when it came out
Hi man
Im in Australia and bought mine through Ebay for AUD $398 about 2 months ago so that price is right. It came from Hong Kong, it works perfectly, im heaps satisfied with it and there are no faults.
Also to let you ease your mind dude, they are unlocked so they work with any Australian mobile network and also when purchasing the phone make sure you get the R800i xperia play model as these ones work on all of the Australian network bands for mobile 2G, 3G etc.
Another thing also like someone said before, Ebay offers their protection program and if you use paypal they also offer their own protection program so you are pretty much covered if somethings goes wrong.
Have fun with it dude If you wanna know anything else let me know.
the r800a runs on telstras 3g network, not the r800i, and it costs a fair bit more to buy but is worth it imo for telstras far superior network(least where i live)
the r800i can use telstras old 2100mhz 3g network..but thats not long for this world..
TLR telstra:r800a, optus or anyone else:r800i
Thanks guys, I'm actually in china now on holiday so I'm wondering whether to grab one while I'm in hong kong, but as previously mentioned eBay gives the security of buyer protection... will let y'all know how it fares but either way I'm looking forward to joining the club
just bought mine through ebay, price was $394 (ausd). came with an 8gb card, case, screen protector and car charger. seller is based in hong kong and i'd gladly recommend him if you were to buy through ebay. no hassles, no stress, no problems at all. seller even used ups for shipping which allowed full tracking online. i bought my unit on a thursday. ups online said that the unit was already in melbourne by saturday. got my phone by monday morning (darn, no postal services on sundays =)
2 of my friends got it through the same vendor I think. He's called rose#somenumber#.
Trouble-free and they got it for 280-300€ depending on the change rate.
280-300? Geez, that's a bargain! I saw that rose guy (or girl) on eBay but Aussie price is 385, still a good buy, just wanna stop at HK first n see if I can haggle a bit with the locals

just be careful, mate. no offense to anyone honk kong related...i was based there for 2.5 years mind you...but a mate of mine dropped by hk recently. he bought a brand new xperia arc and haggled for a lower price. the seller took out 150 bucks from the phone. phone was working fine but when he got back to melby the phone stopped functioning.
if you're going to hk, try getting the phone in tsim sha tsui (kowloon). specifically, ocean terminal (right beside the ferry and bus depot). there's a building there called star city. second floor houses the best electronics from reputable stores. or, there's something similar in wan chai (hk side). but personally i prefer the one in kowloon as the one in wan chai can be a bit dodgy regarding some stores.
im not sure what country your in but if your not in australia you may have to pay import tax which will boost the price
Thanks for the advice guys, ended up getting it from wanchai paid 340aud so pretty happy, it is a wicked phone so far n I havent even rooted it yet! Need some help with but I asked in another thread and am googling as I type thanks again guys, looking forward to exchanging info once I suss it out.
