From all the specs I read, it looks like a great piece of equipment:
- quad-band (useful for me)
- 802.11 b/g (at last!!!). Wonder if WPA/WPA2 is supported, and PSK and/or 802.1x
-full-size SDIO
- Size looks to be between Magician and Himalaya (good enough for me!)
- BT 1.2 supported
- WM5.0...
So if anyone has anything to say about Eten in general and on the M600 in particular, I'd be glad to hear.
Cheers,
Hal

i was looking at one of these too. This looks like one sexxy handset!
not 4 me.
crappy samsung cpu, 64mb ram and useless 802.11g(it will take tons of energy if used)...
Qtek 2020i still the best.

I played with an Eten at Modaco.
Nice device, but fairly plasticy, unlike the aluminium sheathed godliness of HTC's stuff.
Nice to have the competition though. However, If i was going for a non HTC, I'd wait for the Atom = perkier.

Hal,
Do you know where this product can be purchased with a new abbonement in France?

As an owner of imate JAM and after reading all that about the warranty on blue angel and stuff I am going forward and I ll be ordering an ETEN M600 this monday morning!
At least it has full size SD and it supports SDIO!!!!
As for the quality mentioned above nothing can be worse than the firming on JAM. Have you seen the battery cover of the JAM???? How many of you have a jam that its colour didn't came off? Mine is becoming grey after the silver has gone in the back!
Anyway as for the samsung processor just think that K-JAM has the 200MHz version of it while M600 has the 400MHz one and I ve seen some benchmarks on the net showing clearly that tha 400MHz Samsung is faster in many tests than the Intel 416MHz located inside my JAM. At least msmobiles in their recent review say that skype works flawless something I never managed to see on my JAM or my friend's PDA2k.
So I will make a small review as soon as I lay my hands on it sometime after 5th of December.
And admins please create an area for ETEN users too.
I've seen the E-ten m500 (300 MHz Samsung CPU) in action and must say that I was really impressed.
Scrolling of navigation cards (Navigon Mobile Navigator 5.1) almost in real-time.
You'll need at least 416/520 MHz Intel CPU to achieve same results.
Don't know about battery life though.

Sabo M500 has exactly the same processor with M600 and its clocked at 400MHz. I also saw an M500 and it was really fast and smoother than my JAM. Let me get my hands on M600 and I will let you all know how good it is!
Too bad there is no keyboard!!
The missing keyboard is one of the advantages of my M600 for me! :lol: :wink:
M600 in FR and lack of keyboard
Ok, I confess, I couldn't hold it anymore: I bought a K-Jam WWE while in Dubai last week.
First impression: not slower than BA/HIMA running WM5 (I have both - BA has dead screen now...).
It is the right size for me.
I tend to hate the keyboards, having been on Palm since 1995... The BA keyboard was laughable! But the on on K-Jam is real cool.
Keep feedback on M600 pouring please, I still find it's a nice piece of equipment!
My 2c,
Hal.

M500 has a 400mhz cpu
I had (still have, in fact) a Magician (JAM) till about 3 days back when after careful comparison of the various alternatives available (I wanted a WiFi pocket pc phone that was stable and fast) I bought the Eten M600.
Compared to my friends K-JAMs and JAMINs this one is really stable and fast. I can skype away happily on the M600 while my friends struggle to start up skype on their JAMINs. I make calls on Skype while they listen to garbage trying to make one.
Eten rocks, and at a price that $150 cheaper (including a free 1GB SD Card) than the JAMIN its too good a deal to ignore. @ HTC - competition has arrived, and in style!
I'm going to replace my sony T610 and palm E2 with one single device. Either the HTC Magician (128mb) or Wizard. : D
On the Wizard I like the wifi, keyboard, edge, not sure about mobile 5. On the Magician I like the smaller form factor, speed, standard sd card, price.
I read in mobile review.com that the performance is not so top with the TI processor turning at 200mhz instead of 416mhz of the Magician.

So whats your honest opinion, any regrets, are the benchmark tests correct, whats your real life experiences? or too early to tell...........
Its Christmas and I'm allowed to wish:
An XDAIIi form factor with the insides or motherboard and software of the XDA Exec (HTC Universl). Camera upgraded to 2mega pixel and 128 RAM and 128 Rom.
In otherwords, the HTC Universal without the Keyboard and swivel plus the upgrades.
Do you think HTC will come to the party?
Calli
I want one too !
I want a blue angel with 128 ram and 128 rom, with a 640x480 screen resolution, and windows mobile 5 with an apache keyboard.
Was planning on getting a O2 Xda ignito or HTC Diamond as I believe they are also known as but today came across the O2 Xda Serra on the O2 web site, which looks the same but just has the qwerty pull out keyboard.
Is the keyboard the only difference or are there other not so obvious differences?
Will the same software/apps etc work on either phone too?
Thanks for any info
Phones are near identical except for the keyboard, the improved battery life (battery is fatter, as phone is fatter because of keyboard) the diamond has a fixed 4GB of storage where as the TP takes micro SD, I have 8GB in mine but there are some with 16GB, Rumour has it that the CPU in the Touch Pro (Serra) is a bit quicker than the diamond.
The O2 web site is misrepresenting the thickness of the TP compared to the diamond, the diamond is 11mm the TP is around 17, TBH if you are happy without a keyboard, I would recommend the Touch HD over the diamond all day long but I don't think O2 are carrying it yet.
CPU is the same. With the TP you get the keyboard, more ram (288 vs 192) flash for the camera and no 4GB internal storage but an expansion slot instead. The storage memory of the TP is also larger. Around 360MB whilst the Diamond's is below 200, so you can install more applications on the device
Atom VI
With a myriad list of multimedia capabilities and a sleek design, the new Atom VI promises just about infinite possibilities for those who desire to get the most out of their lives. With blisteringly fast processor, spacious storage and powerful multimedia tools along with a convenient numeric keypad, the Atom VI ensures you are the master of work and play. The Atom VI keeps you connected to everything that's important to you.

Looks suspiciously like the iMate 8150...
//edit: according to expansys, it is 95% a rebranded 8150; but hey, at least it got a 200 megapixel camera.
