This HTC manufactured device should have the exact same specifications as the HTC X7500 (Advantage) and, as with other HTC devices, the same packaging as well."</i><br /><br /><img src="http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/images/web/2003/hisham-20070323-htcadvantageUnbox_12_All.jpg" /><br /><br />Here's a chance for you to check out the packaging for the HTC Advantage (in this case the Dopod U1000 variant). The HTC Advantage comes with a whole bunch of accessories which makes the unlocked price slightly more palatable, though I wish they'd included the rather spiffy dock as well (the dock goes for an extra $100 but has VGA and S-Video out, headphone socket, two USB slots and a slot for charging a spare battery). One other point is that the list price in the link above ($1499) is quite a bit higher than it is in my locale (RM4300 or about $1250 at today's exchange rate). Still worth a look if this device interests you!

This is a truly nice unit but way too large for my needs but would be a great tool for those that are always on the go.

Personally I couldn't justify the price for it when I can get a nicely loaded 12.1" Laptop for the same price or even less.


Bottom line, still like it but would rather stick with the smaller units like the kaiser.
