Thanks very much! Guess Mapking will have to go thru the software port as no hardware GPS com port is present.....

HTC Kaiser in HK...
Where in HK can I purchase the unit? How much is the Store Selling Price??

Just wanted to ask the same question.... Would be nice to get an indication before the phone hits Singapore (hopefully only a matter of days...)

Got mine without a contract at telco (CSL) for HKD5871. List price here is HKD6180. Most of the retail shops are selling @ HKD6080 with screen protectors and 1GB MicroSD.
FX HKD/USD 7.8
BTW, the phone can be had for around HKD3600 with a 12-month contract of at least HKD200/month.
Hope this will shed some clue for people in Singapore or elsewhere in Asia.....

below list price..
is there any shop that sells below list price?

English version
Is it avaiable in English Version???

English and Chinese. Some computer shops are selling HKD100 lower with 1GB MicroSD and screen protector.... Not much discount at the moment.

GPS MAP
based on I saw on their website, it comes with Mapking, in this case, what country map is included with the unit? Does it comes with any free maps?
As per everyone's experience, which place is the cheapest place to buy PDA phones? Wanchai ? Mongkok? ShamShuiPo?

Im in Perth, WA, there are quite a few 750s among business users here. Telstra will always have the best coverage, followed by Optus, Vodafone then 3. (These are my own opionion)
3 usually has the best value for $ plans, with Telstra being the most expensive but if you are in the metro area all the carriers will be fine.
I have Tomtom and Garmin for the Palm running the generic 2.27 WM6 ROM.
Good Luck!
price is off the chain
better off buying ebay 1400mah
guys i have ordered this battery can someone tell how long that batterie last if u run browser , youtube and music etc for few hours ?

Kaiser source in Taipei?

Is there a good place in Taipei to find HTC phones - particularly the Kaiser at this point at a reasonable price?
I'll be there on business in a couple of months - and it'd be cool to come back with a new phone....
TIA,
Richard
I share the same question but would add to it - is it possible to find there English ROM? Does the keyboard also contains Chinese characters? Is there a place that sells the international version?
No one sells it YET
There are many release dates circulating, but they are all guesses, They people who do know can't tell us).
Once you can buy it, you should be able to get an English ROM. If my experience of buying phones in Dubai is anything to go by, they stocked Arabic and Western phones, I'd suspect you won't have a problem.

I am in Dubai and the keypad depends on the model you are buying. I recently got a new HP laptop and it did not have arabic keys but most other laptops had.

I live in Taiepi and have had no luck getting any HTC PDA's here. The reason is that up to now the only available models come with Chinese and if one flashes an upgrade with English, the warranty is shot. If that does not bother you, then just be aware that the keyboard will have both English and Chinese on it. As I have lived here for almost 31 years I have found that you can get used to keyboards with English and Chinese on it. Since I bought my first computer in 1980 I have never owned a keyboard without Chinese on it.
If you are going to be in Hong Kong too you could pick up an English model. I am not sure if the warranty would still cover you when you return home. Before, the people here told me to buy their PDAs in HK, but to be aware that if the darn thing needed repairs, it would have to be done in Hong Kong.

Oh, you can buy the phones here, no problem, with the Dopod brand, or CHT (Chung Hwa Telecom), and now HTC brand, but the problem is again warranty, if you change from Chinese to English. As you know, a PDA phone is not like a smart phone that you can change the language just by going through menus.
Frustrating for me that these things are made here but I have not been able to buy an English model, but see the Chinese versions sold all over the place here, including several stores within 15 minutes of walking of where I live. I exhausted Dopod's customer service email with complaints about lack of English models here............
HTC and Dopod are of course Taiwanese companies.
Chinese to English
You can flash an English ROM (which voids the warranty).. then, if some unforeseen problem occurs, flash back to a Chinese Rom to send back for repair (re-instates warranty coverage.)
I have a CHT9000 (from Taiwan) which I have flashed (too many times.. back and forth).....I don't think "they" can detect which roms have been flashed to the phone.
Not sure if Kaiser has been CID-unlocked yet.."if not" only a matter of time.
If you can't flash back to Chinese, before repair... you are obviously screwed.
Edit: didn't realize the date..
Tytn II in Taipei
EDIT: me neither :-(
The current price is around 780 USD (23.500 NTD) here in TPE, but as mentionned by another earlier, only CHT ROM.
I bought my Tytn II in HK at a cheaper price than here in TW.
Side kick is that I need to go to HK if my TW device gets broken under warranty
No

Default buying a german stellar (kaiser i think) off ebay - live in uk

Sorry every1 i posted this in the general section , i had plenty of reads but no advice so im posting it here cos the auction im interested in ends very soon. 'just wanna buy a german kaiser and use it in the uk by flashing it with english rom and using in uk network' u don't have to read the rest just answer me this please. is it possible, thanks guys
hello everyone, im glad to be back! haven't used this forum in well over a year and ive missed it. ive decided to get another ppc. i'm looking at getting the tytn 2 off ebay. basically i want just the most powerful spec ppc. apart from the shift and advantage (cant afford them) this seems the best choice. also i would like a qwerty keyboard although b4 i got by with the spb full keyboard but now i want a qwerty one. if anyone can suggest any other ppc's with a high spec let me know plz. i didn't wanna spend more than a 200 quid but after watching ebay for 3 days it seems i have to.i've got 300 quid but for that i'd like a ppc a decent memory card and some bluetooth stereo headphones such as the sony ones. luckily ive got still got loads software (i.e. tomtom) from b4 but that's from older os'es. the one on ebay is 200 buy it now but its shipped from germany.the whole lisitng is in german but at the bottom is says 'attention int. buyers this phone has german software' surely i can just flash it with an english rom such as dutty's? is that correct?just as i was leaving the forums last time. xda-dev had 2 take all the roms down due to a copyright warning from ms. does this mean i have to cook my own? sounds daunting. basically i just wanna know if this german stellar is gonna b compatible on english nets? and if anyones got any suggestions for another ppc. sorry for posting in the general section, maybe this could have went in a different board but i've got 21 hours or so till the auction ends. thanks guys. glad 2 b bk, gareth
p.s. i've got an almost new orbit with a cracked screen. anyone good at fitting screens, or wanna buy it? or sell me a screen lol. ( i still want a newer ppc though) this is why i left the boards- cracked me screen didnt i lol.
Default cmon ppl
cmon guys sum1 must b able 2 spare me a minute. the auction ends soon. 'can i buy a german kaiser, flash it wiv english rom and use on uk network'
no man. most of the times the device ID does not match along with the carrier rom of other operators. so if your device is german operator specific, i dont think it will match along with ur desired rom updated. and since u r planning to buy from ebay, you only have a less chance of getting the full advantage of knowing you can rom update into english
German to English ROM change should be OK

I don't think you should have any trouble - people take devices that started out with WorldWideEnglish on them and flash to different language ROM's all the time. The hardware is the same, the keyboard layout may be slightly different. You will have to follow directions here and Hard-SPL unlock, and may need to do SIM-unlock, but I know it's all do-able.
thanx 4 the reply
thanks a lot guys,well.. what do i do here? 2 pieces of conflicting info from 2 experienced guys. shall i take this as it should be ok but theres a possibility of it going wrong? i called uk 02 tech support, they wouldn't tell me anything 'cant make any guarantees, we dont support this etc.etc.'the guy has posted it on uk ebay http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI....m=270225685569&ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:IT&ih=017
is it not worth the risk then do you think
n e got 1 for sale? lol
i wouldnt listen to what ayyu3m said at all. true the ID will be different, but that is one of the reasons we use hardspl. we can bypass the CID and install rom from other kaisers. no problems whatsoever, expect maybe the keyboard layout
yea i agree, cid is counrty id isnt it? still not sure what 2 do. ill have to check the standard german keyboard layout. 200 quid is alot to waste but then again i could whack it back on ebay.has anyone actually tried this?cheers 4 ur reply m8, and the others all appreciated
CID=carrier ID

I bought it from Taiwan. But, believe me it is very nice than diamond.
Yes soft touch much better than plastic and it looks better
Does the Victor has Accelerometer? It is supposed to have less memory than Diamond is it true? Do TF3D Works well?
It does have the accelerometer and it does have the same amount of memory as the Diamond.
PLEASE USE THE SEARCH. This has been answered already.
Its the same phone under the cosmetically different skin.
