O2 Xda Atom at SeeO2.com

Da-rool! The O2 Xda Atom, which we've posted on many times before, is now up on the SeeO2.com web site and should be on sale in Australia, New Zealand, and Southeast Asia sometime during the first half of December. This gorgeous device has everything - an Intel PXA272 416MHz processor, 64MB RAM, 128MB Flash ROM, a 2.7" 240 x 320 (QVGA) 262K-colour TFT LCD, stereo speakers, a 2-megapixel CMOS camera (with flash), IrDA (SIR), Mini-USB, a miniSD slot, an FM radio, Bluetooth 1.2, 802.11b Wi-Fi, tri-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE support, a large 1500mAh Li-Ion battery, and Windows Mobile 5.0. It also includes a few notable O2-exclusive applications and plug-ins - namely, an equalizer for Windows Media Player 10 Mobile, O2 Plus, O2 SMS Plus, O2 MediaPlus (a Media Center-style application), and FM Radio. Product images can be found here.

It should have been USB 2 for fast synchonization of music, and a 3.5 mm headphone jack. Of course normal SD would have been preferable, but one can understand the choice.

GPS would have been good. I would have been willing to swallow a MiniSD card for that.

I just ordered my Qtek 9100 and became a bit jealous when I read this thread. I like the small size, 2MP Camera, and FM radio, but dislike that it is only tri-band. I currently use the SE k750i, which is a great little phone, but the lack of 850 support means my reception is pure crap.
Hopefully they will release a quad-band version of the Atom?

I can't see how the space saved can be worth the switch to the MiniSD slot. I'm not ready to switch again (I gotta have 2 slots anyway).

FM Radio! Finally! I was waiting for this since ages. Neat specs, neat device, although for one reason, i would not get it: no HW keyboard (I just can't live w/o it since i got my Blue Angel...and no, Wizard is NOT an alternative with a 195 MHz processor). The 2.5 jack can be a problem though (just like the Blue Angel with its not-compatible-with-anything-but-the-offical-headset thingey).

I wish people would just STOP with this "it's not enough" junk. I have had my K-JAM now for almost a week and it runs just fine. As a matter of fact I just recently sold my old 4150 and I can tell you that the K-JAM ran just as well as the 4150 did. Is it as fast as my 2750? Of course not. But I can tell you I can listen to music, surf the web, all with iLauncher, Pocket Breeze (With Quicken Plugin) running on the today screen.
The OMAP 850 runs like a 400mhz xscale. Period.
