I was looking for a good leather case for my jasjar and ran across this at the imate store http://www.imatephonestore.com/product.asp?itemMDL=IMATE_JASJAR&ref=adwords its the jasjar for sale with windows mobile 6 does that mean we are close to a final
OH MY GOD!!!!!!!!!!!
If it is not a mistake my next PDA WILL BE I-MATE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
NO MORE QTEK/HTC!!!!!!!!!!!!
WTH! I guess the coder/designer of that site has committed an error.
But, I would loved to be proven wrong
edit: interestingly, he didn't commit similar error to other imate products(kjam, jasjam etc). Hmmm
edit2: more interestingly, the string(lol,doing lot of programming these days) "windows mobile 6" is written in red

Yes, you are right. Infact, it is priced higher that the comparitively newer JasJam($999). JasJar is priced at $1049 :\ Indeed odd.
*fingers crossed*
wow, this is cool information. I-mate prepared a official WM6 ROM for Universal.

Well, IMHO, all vendors should give WM6 upgrade to their WM5 devices since MS is not charging anything from them to do the upgradation.
Just saw somewhere on the web that the HP has announced to give their hx2xxx owners free WM6 upgrade. Now, thats too cool
I was thinking about the selling of my Qtek 9000, because Im looking for someting new (my favourite is Imate Ultimate 7150), but the official WM6 upgrade is good reason why still stay with Universal
This is a MIRACLE!!!

JasJar , Qtek, Dpod.. the same things. If there is JasJar WM6 ROM, we can upload it on Qtek as well
not happening
most likely they are flashing it with roms taken from here....
why would imate want to do this???
imate is supposed to have the worst after-sales service
and with the ultimate line (7150) being announced they have even less motivation

or ... maybe they are trying to convince the people that they changed !
afaik, HTC dont support the Universal with WM6, meaning that carriers can't either.
Most likely some n00b was updating the website and suck the wm6 stuff on jasJAR Rather than jasJAM (Which IS getting WM6, and yet it isnt mentioned here: http://www.imatephonestore.com/product.asp?itemMDL=IMATE_JASJAM)
coincidence?

Well, may be imate wants to sell the ones still left in the stock. Also, since MS didnt take any money for the upgrade to WM6, may be one of the imate rom makers made a ROM for JasJar to attract the people to buy it

But, imate has not yet announced to offer WM6 upgrade, unlike htc/dopod :\
edit: also, since imate has divorced htc from quite a long time, jasjam won't be getting any upgrade. afaik, jasjam is the only device which could have got the upgraded to wm6 because it was manf by htc. After jasjam, they came with the non-htc products

Is this site/forum only for SIM type devices or is it for Pocket PC type devices in general. I have a Samsung SCH-i730 and am interested in the possiblity of upgrading it to Windows Mobile 6 and am looking for input. Please let me know. Thanks!
I'm wondering about this myself.
I have an SCH-i730 as well that I'd love to see WM6 on.
I also have an Axim X5 that would like some WM6 lovin'.
Anyone heard anything new on this one? WM5 sucks on my i730 and I want to move to WM6.

this pace is for Win Mob devices made by HTC
Ok so how do we upgrade the i730 to WM6?
WM6 please
Man I so wish someone would be able to figure out how to use one of the cdma kitchens to isolate the i730 drivers to use towards getting WM6 on the i730!
A guy from UK who claims to be official "Orange phone trainer" (Orange is a mobile operator in UK) claims that Orange Academy both Microsoft trainer and Orange employees were claiming that ROM upgrade for Orange SPV M500 Pocket PC phone (also for C550 smartphone) is coming.
If this would happen, then also users of other HTC Magician phones (like i-mate JAM, T-Mobile MDA Compact, Vodafone VPA Compact, Qtek S100, etc):
... would also be able to upgrade to Windows Mobile 5.0!
as posted under the smartphone main section, I was at the Orange Academy today. Good news to come from the event is that Microsoft and Orange are currently busy preparing a WM5 upgrade for both the C550 and the M500!
We were obviously told not to tell the general public, as they want us to push the C600 and the M5000, but for existing owners, this is fantastic news
I own an M500 and he was blatantly waving one around in front of my eyes saying "Both these devices will have WM5 on them in the coming months..."
So god knows.. he did seem to know what he was talking about tho, being a MS Trainer and all.
Hersh...
thats great news, and no rumors like that ever appeared in these foruns... now I will finally be able to choose between WM5 and my pre-installed vista OS with a ps3 emu on my s110!
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
Im not saying it is or not possible just F***ING STOP POSTING ABOUT IT, RELEASE IT OR SAY NOTHING!
Even fakes are more welcome than those crappy posts "it is possible, one day it will work", "i think i have, oh wait, nop. i really dont understand english (wait, how did i manage to register here?)", "they relased it for my ipod, why not for magician?", "we can do it, if we just talk about it ONE MORE TIME!!!!!!"
When it comes out, if ever, IT WILL BE ATTACHED TO THE POST!
In the meantime, if you really want WM5 or 6 or 7, go buy an expensive phone with half the mhz and more RAM that WM5 doesnt let you use, just because it has that damm gps you really have much use for and its not to show-off all your friends.
Rumour!!!!!!!!!
I believe this rumour came out about a year ago from another forum, and still nothing. i will see it when i believe it.
Don't think it's going to happen. The only way that this device will get WM5 is if someone cooks a successful rom.
Unfortunately, it's just another rumour ... read original post here:

im pretty sure that this is an MDA Compact II or the HTC Charmer and not a magician, because i find it illogical that a telco will still produce a rom upgrade for a very old device which no retailer is selling anymore, and while i still entertain the thought that it may be an unofficial WM5 Rom, still, i would doubt it. Such a rom would have been posted already here.
rumour rumour rumour.....its all fake people !
What a pity!
All the best and beautiful new programs are coming out only for WM5 amd WM6!
It is better to hear no information instead of misinformation. There will never be WM5 on magician .
Come on now, I have been reading WM5 posts for Magician from a year. Fed up now. Magician is a very old device. Dont think there will be a WM5 for it. Even WM6 is released long back. So if Magician had to have a WM5, it would have come out long back.
Why dont you guys try to load Google's Android on Magician. Would be much better

Hi
Im currently using HTC Magician but im lookin to buy a better second-hand ppc (i-e which can support later versions of WM).
Wizard and Prophet are the 2 PPCs im considering at the moment
I need your suggestions as to which PPC I should go for (keeping in view the financial constraint) and some points in favour of your suggestion.
Im looking forward to your suggestions
Regards
Bilal

Wow, you really are going for some older hardware there! In fact, it may be difficult to find new Wizards and Prophets!
If you want to save money, you are probably going to be better off at this point going with a Hermes or a Kaiser. I can personally recommend the Hermes as I have had one, but I know lots of Kaiser owners out there who love their machines too. Both are well-rounded machines with loads of functionality. I haven't looked lately, but I bet you could get a new Hermes for around US$300 if you shopped around a little. Kaisers will probably be a bit more.
If you are looking for something smaller and don't need the keyboard, you can probably find a good deal on an Elf.
All three of these models were very popular, but have pretty much run their course. No doubt some merchants who have over-bought these models are trying to get rid of them before they become completely obsolete.
Well that depends on what are your needs form a PPC
Look here and compare: http://pdadb.net/
been a wizard users for the past 3 months, have to say its a nice phone, havent tried the Prophet (yet )
as said above, try to compare both of the phones
edit : saw that ur from pakistan , nice to see ya, im from karachi though..but currently in Bahrain
I just upgraded from a Prodigy/Wizard to a Kaiser/TyTN II. It's a huge step up. I'd recommend a Hermes/TyTN or a Kaiser/TyTN II over a Prodigy/Wizard.
I tried several WM 6.1 ROMs on my Wizard, but development on each halted.

Thankyou for the reply
I live in Pakistan, there are alot of Wizards available and I can get a second-hand wizard in good condition for $90-100. Ive checked on Hermes, It is available for almost $270-290 (second-hand)
Im giving prices as I want to get maximum out of my savings (same old problem with students!)
I tried e-bay but no one out there seem to ship it to my country

The Kaiser/TyTN II is the only one with an official WM 6.1 upgrade. Both the Prodigy/Wizard and the Hermes/TyTN have unofficial WM 6.1 ROMs (made by the cookers here at XDA). Most of the unofficial WM 6.1 ROMs for the Wizard have been abandoned by their cookers.
the kjam is the Wizard, the Jamin is the Prophet

i would angree with that, have you taken a look in the wizards section?, a new ROM releases every day, esp the TouchHD CRS Series
thats why im taking ur expert opinion that which ppc should I buy
just weigh all the pros and cons and gimme a suggestion - ill go for it!
i have a hermes with t-mobile 6.1 ROM. Its a very good allrounder. Decent performance.
I just upgraded to a Kaiser and ams o far very impressed. Big step up in general performance over the hermes. A lot more responsive.
But a good deal more expensive too.
if you can stretcht to a Kaiser i'd get that. otherwise the Hermes is a very capable device.
ELFin
This week a pal bought a Mint ELFin for US$350.00 shipping included via Ebay. I've owned many smartphone and some touch phones...as I keep saying...the EFLin to today is my favorite. Why? Small, with a pcm keyboard, Manila, and a few other goodies, it will give a run to any phone out there on the market.
Paul
Hello,
I want to buy a new mda and i'm torn between a Raphael and a Dream...
I'm having trouble choosing between these two.
I mean i'm very curious about the Dream, running Android and all, but on the other hand, looking at the tech. specs, Raphael seems a bit more packed and i could still use IGO. Kind of got used to WM i guess; i currently have a Nike200...
Could anyone please tell me what's your opinion, which one would you choose...?
Thanks.
WM or Android
Welcome to forums
I´ll choose Rapahel definetly
I think Android OS is not mature yet, perhaps in a few years but not now.
Just my 2 cents.
read , search, respect and enjoy!
Good luck,
well..im having a dilemma now too..i tot of buying android phone..but i love to taste the window mobile phone..but i suggest u to take raphael like what orb said is true..but if u have little more money to spent on android phone i would take both.cos i want to get familiar with the OS...
Thank you for the replies. I guess I just needed a little push towards HTC Raphael...
Great choice!!
Then go to Wiki and to Raphael secton and enjoy!
If you are not in a rush, you could even go for the Touch Pro II. T-Mobile already has it available and it is roughly the same that AT&T, Sprint, etc are charging for the Touch Pro/Fuze.
But I agree with orb, Android is far from being done (although the Hero interface does look pretty neat)!
