Phone Scoop's CTIA Report, Part 2
Rich Brome posted part two of his CTIA report yesterday, and that includes several interesting tidbits about the i-Mate product lineup. First, the i-Mates will be supported in the USA soon: "Typically, HTC devices are brought to market by carriers. So when no U.S. carrier picks up a particular HTC model, it can sometimes be hard for U.S. consumers to locate, and a version for GSM 850 networks might not even be produced. For fans of Windows Mobile, this can sometimes be frustrating...The exciting news is that i-mate is now officially expanding to the U.S.; they're currently in the process of establishing a U.S. headquarters in California. They will be trying to forge relationships with U.S. carriers, and also offering HTC devices to consumers through more direct channels."
:clap: And check out this picture of the incredibly tiny HTC Magician device, aka i-Mate JAM:
:drool: Impressive stuff, and looks like we'll be able to get it here in North America much more easily soon!

Very nice devices!!, I just got last week the PDA2k, wich replaces my p900 and my O2 XDAII, the hardware is amazing, but I think Microsoft needs to work in a more reliable, and useful Phone Operating system.

Wow, it's tiny! I'm in love!
(I'm beginning to realise I'm an idiot. I'm 6'3" with massive hands and have to mail-order shoes to get the right size. Yet I keep buying small things. I've a tiny mobile phone which is a nightmare to tap keys on. I've got an iPaq 2215 which is a nightmare to play games on. I have 3 mini/barebone PCs which are great. I want the credit-card sized Canon Powershot Ixus 40, but I know its far too tiny for my fingers. Argh. Rant out.)

FINALLY!
Looking seriously at that i-JAM device; seeing that smartphone are on the MniSD form factor and the i-JAM is a PPCPE w/SD and bluetooth this might be the way to go....

Anyone needs a h4150 and Moto V300?
