Hi all,
I am currently travelling and my Tornado just crapped out on me (will not charge).
I will be passing through Heathrow in a couple days (Terminal 1 - Airside), and I was wondering if there is a shop that sells the S730 there.
Anybody know?

I would doubt it, there are not very many places at all that sell the S730 except online.

I'm curious, where is everyone buying their TyTN IIs? I almost got burned on a purchase through eBay (decent rating, but had to file a claim to get my refund).
I looked at smart-mobile-gadgets.com which looks pretty legit. They even have the version with TomTom in stock, and a good price. However when I called the number it went to a generic 'the person @ is unavailable' voicemail box.
I know it's carried at the XDA store but there's no guarantees yet on versions (I want TomTom) and I need the phone sooner rather than later.
On top of that, I've looked into becomming a reseller but none of my distributors carry it either, and I'm getting a lot of runaround from HTC America.
Any suggestions or stories of good experiences of your purchase? Please share!
i bought my unit from supergps - but it was faulty so i sent it back - they said they couldnt reproduce the fault and sent it back to me - so ive now got back to them and have asked for my money back - we'll see what happens - i will probably be buying the next kaiser from someone else who has a bit of credibility to their name (i dunno, maybe expansys)
i bought mine from phonesource-usa.com's store front in las vegas. It had tomtom, uk plug, and no us adapter. no hassles. only caveat is the 14 day return policy. my unit has a bad pixel, but i didn't feel like fussing over it (assuming they would have exchanged it anyway).
i'd buy from them again.
the XDA-Store has a great Deal: http://store.xda-developers.com/HTCTyTNII-unlocked.html
Comes with TomTom and US adapter for the UK plug
I bought from MobilePlanet, myself. And got a discount for getting the AT&T plan through them (need to call their CS to get that).
I would ask a question, though - if you're in the US and don't already own maps for TomTom, you're likely to end up unable to use the taster version that's included. The maps you can select from are relatively small (the LA area is three maps, for example), and I haven't run into anyone who could purchase additional maps for the included version without popping for TomTom 6 anyway.
So if you're in the US, you might want to reduce the importance of TomTom on your purchase decision.
Just a warning....
I bought my TyTn II from SuperEtrader last week, and was a little puzzled by the MAPASIA GPS taster software in the box, didnt think much of it cos I didnt buy the thing for GPS use..... Then the USB on the device stopped working, not even the usual "windows recognition beep" when you first connect.. (check the cable on my old SPV M3100 and it works fine)...
So, I decided to call HTC UK to see if they could sort it out.... seems that MY device which was bought from a UK web site was in fact imported from Singapore and as such is not under warrenty in the UK!
So.... dont buy from www.superetrader, they are importing HTC devices from other countries and flogging them on as UK devices.
They also trade as the following....
www.SuperEtrader.co.uk,
www.SuperGPS.co.uk,
http://stores.ebay.co.uk/SuperGPS-Sat-Nav-and-PDAs
Well, return it for a refund. You're within your legal rights to do so.
Which is what I'm doing..... just hope they are a little more honest when it comes to the refund..... not heard anything from them as yet, although it's only been just over 24 hours.

Well, if they don't play ball, contact your local trading standards office and they'll nail their balls to the wall. Distance selling regulations are VERY strict in the UK and you have quite wide reaching rights.
I bought my HTC TYTN II directly from Clove in London in September. It worked perfectly on AT&T. Pretty soon after getting it, I got the "solid red light" which meant the chip failed and had to be replaced. I understand from reading around these posts that it's quite a common occurrence.
In the interim I needed a device for work so my company bought me a Tilt. I finally got around to sending the TYTN II back to HTC to be repaired and it now works perfectly. It is in perfect physical condition and has the box, software (including Tom Tom), etc.
I don't need two of these babies - anyone want to buy the HTC version? Not sure what a fair price is but I'd think aroud $500 US. Reply or send me a private message if you are interested.
Thanks!
(p.s. sorry if these types of postings are not allowed, I looked around but didn't see any rule prohibiting it)
P.S. I am located in California.
Greetings all,
Just wondering if anyone would be interested in acquiring a Tytn II before I put it up on Ebay. The unit has been treated with the utmost care and and I still have all the original packaging (including the box, etc...). I paid about $749 new and would at least like to get $450-$500 as I've only had the unit for about three months and even then it's had light use.
Note: I'll be shipping the unit from Ontario, Canada.
Also... I'm flexible on the price.
Hit me up with a message if you're interested or send an e-mail to [email protected]
I ordered a HTC TyTN II from MobilePC.com but when I got it the mini usb port did not work So they offered to give me a full refund or exchange for another phone since they are out of HTC TyTN II pocket pc's.
Where online can I get this phone for around $550 or less? I want to get it from a reliable source with returns or someone local in Phoenix, AZ where I can test it out.
Also Anyone recommend any other phones I might want to consider before buying a new TyTN II?
Thanks

Buy one of mine. I have two and one is in perfect condition. It is sim/cid unlocked and comes with everything. Going to list it on ebay this week for 375.00.
Jeff
Is it a TyTN II or a tilt? Can anyone on here vouch for you? Just heard bad things buying on the forums.
Thanks
CC
It is a tilt. My ebay username is tonyandjeff if you want to look me up. I could list it on ebay and just have you buy if from there. That way you get all the buyer protection that ebay/paypal affords you.
Jeff
I found tilts online locally for $299-$350 so I am going to check those out first. If you want to drop your price then maybe.
Do you have skype installed on your Tilt? If so how does it work?
Thanks
CC
Locally would be the best bet for you. I do not use skype so I can't help you there
