That device does have a lot to salivate over. But...

Once I got a VGA device, it became very difficult to consider another device without VGA. When I try to use my HP 2755 for something after using my Axim X51v, it's like trying to drive at night with sunglasses on.

As much as i like this device i don't think i will get one.. At least not until 3G is availiable in my area.. and by that time there will be much newer technology out.

Besides my 8125 is only 2 months old. I gotta give it some time.

Mad Monkey Boys! ('cept they don't appear to stock it yet. ops: They have the Tytn, though, so if you ask he'll likely be able to get it.)

And for the inquisitive, all apps I ran on my 400MHz iPaq 5550 run fine on my 200MHz JAMin, with the exception of Skype. So you should be able to run just about anything on the Jasjam, with it's 400MHz CPU.

That would in Europe, not the US. Assuming you're located in the former, you can contact your local T-Mobile store or check online and see if they're selling them yet.

i see you're in bc. you might want to avoid the usual transborder hassle. i use 2 places in the gta, both of which have given me good service. they both sell it, but i'm not sure they have it in stock right now. see if you can play them off each other for competitive pricing.
http://www.softpocket.ca/ - has a store in downtown Toronto. good service. lots of accessories in stock.
http://www.superiorgadgets.com/ - i think they're a web only service. good prices. i take it people ae satisfied.

I considered that route, but I got my JAMin for less after tax, next-day shipping, and cross-border fees from MMB than Superior Gadgets was offering it, before taxes and shipping, at the time. And Softpocket's current price is just astronomical compared to what I paid.

It pays to do your research.

I don't know where you're based, Stan2. I'm in the UK and T-Mobile are definitely selling the things over here. However, you have to call them: they don't appear to have updated their website yet so you can't order them online.

Note of caution: The MDA Vario II is missing the video call button. The video call functionality is still there, but the hardware button is gone. I can sort of understand this from the point of view of them not wanting a lot of complaints about expensive (and battery-hungry) video calls being invoked by accident, but I'm sure I could have thought of something to re-map that button to

Even so, if you happen to have recently purchased an application and will need a newer or WM5-specific version, most developers I've dealt with will either give you a free upgrade or deeply discounted upgrade.

Thanks Brad. I'm going to try installing some stuff this afternoon if I get the time. It should be fun trying to shoehorn what I have on my capacious BA into the rather smaller memory footprint of the Hermes.

I'm having a difficult time understanding what's different between the TyTN and the JasJam. Why would I want one instead of the other? In other words, is there any reason to wait for a the JasJam?

I might be wrong, but i think the only difference is the slight difference in their design.
