Carrier Devices Releases BT Patch For i-Mate PDA2K
Carrier Devices just released an update that addresses a number of Bluetooth issues on the PDA2K (their version of the HTC Blue Angel). If anyone has tried it, let us know if it solves the Bluetooth headset dropouts; if it does that will remove one of the few serious niggles about the device. 8)

Dave, did you get your battery issued fixed up? Are you back in business with the PDA2K or is still in your "bad books"?

No, my battery doesn't hold a charge properly, and takes forever to charge. The device just plain shuts off on me in the middle of doing something. It takes at least a soft reset to get it back, occasionally it hard resets. It hasn't gone completely dead and not come back on like it did a week or so ago. I'm waiting for someone to start shipping batteries, and hoping to hold out for the new ROM to appear in hopes that reflashing it will help. I've given up on their support. I can't get them to answer an email about warranty. Their online support sucks, and that is being polite. If I could get an answer from them about warranty it takes weeks to sends it to Dubai, and back.......AAArrrggg...ROGERS PLEASE HEAR ME! Start selling data devices.!!
It's a great device though. I'm unfortunately in the small group of folks with anything but minor problems. I don't want to give anyone the idea that the problem I'm having is wide spread.......support on the other hand.....:evil:

pda2k and now Siemens SX66 from Cingular
I am considering getting the Siemenns SX66 from Cingular wireless which just came out. It is supposedly a rebranded blue angel.
I wonder if it will have same problems and if one could download patches from Club Imate.,
I would hope they reworked all this but who knows.
I'm wondering if anyone has used this new device.

It is the same device.....less the camera, apparently
To sign in to Clubimate for patches and so on you need to have an i-Mate IMEI number.
They are starting to land in people's hands today by the looks of it. I've see several people mention that their device was shipped on Friday.
As to whether or not the SX66 will have the same Bluetooth problems as the i-mate...ask what the Bluetooth build is. The original build for the i-Mate was 2200. The new builds are 3000, and 3500. If it has one of these you should be in the clear.

I'm wondering also if the patch is for the Cingular Siemens sx 66. I understand the i-mate PDA2k is marketed under a few different names.

Actually Steve, the sx66 and PDA2k i-Mate by Carrier Devices are both Blue Angels produced by HTC. The Siemens sx66, and the i-Mate PDA2k are separately branded....Carrier Devices only brands the i-Mate, not the sx66.
