I am looking to trade my TyTN II for a touch pro. My mobile is used with installed Dutty ROM and WM 6.1 . It is in a great condition with no scratches etc (on mobile or screen). Ill also through in my old Tytn for free wich is in a "usable condition", which means the software is 100% working with WM6 but the exterior is used. Do you think this is a fair deal ? Also, is anyone intrested?
Waiting for your responce thank you
No offense, but this is like asking to trade $15 for $30, then saying you'll throw in another $5.
LOL! I can't stop laughing! Hey, after someone trades you, I'll trade you my old Moto Razor for the Touch Pro!

lolololol. I totally agree.
@ OP
Dude. If you really want a TP, a tynt + $300/400 is good. I mean 200 is pushing it. That is unless you live in usa.

Then I will trade you my trustworthy (has never let me down) Nokia 3210 plus a brick for your Touch Pro!!
yall are mean. like, really mean. no matter how non-sensical the original post.
I'd trade a touch pro for a tytn III. yeah. thats right, III.
Here in Cyprus the touch pro has the exact same price as the tytn II. I don't find it so strange that you would make fun of. I am sure many people would prefare the tytn II against the touch pro, then again anyone is allowed too have an opinion.
Honestly, if you check prices at your local store you will see that many of the older HTC models are more expensive than the newer ones, and date of release plays little role in these hardware driven devices...

Considering the touch pro is either equal or better than tytn II in every way (unless you prefer QVGA) there really isn't much reason to downgrade. Any touch pro owner not happy with the phone would be better off outright selling it than trading for a far inferior phone that does not match the value. I'm not trying to be mean, it really is a bad trade.
hey everyone,
my unlocked T-mobile wing is broken and instead of trying to fix it and probobally destroying it im checking to see if anyone is seling a wm6 phone with a qwerty keyboard. preferably att tilt or htc fuse. i checked ebay and the prices are rediculous im lookin to spend in the range of 100-200$
thanks
i went from the wing to the tilt. I have to say my wing is a lot more stable than the tilt. I thought i would use the gps a lot more than i actually do.
you can get used wings for pretty cheep on eghey
yea the wing was prty damn sturdy.. the only reason i like the tilt more is the upgraded ram.camera and gps

For that $ perhaps you can buy an HTC S621, very good smartphone indeed
Good luck,

no by stable i mean that the software is a lot more stable i find myself hard reseting my tilt about once a week. i only had to hard reset my wing maybe 4 times in the year that i have owned it. btw if you get a another wing just 2 clean is the best rom ever. i wish it would be released for the tilt.

Hi there ,
The HTC p3600 to sell , price : 200 euros ; op sys : WM 6;1 Pro
Ok, so I have a decision to make, and only till Wednesday to make it ...
Currently, I have the Palm Treo Pro. It's a GOOD phone, I LOVE the keyboard and I love how small/light it is. I DO NOT like the proprietary USB of the "end" key as its uber sensitive. Also, most of my programs don't work on the screen (OliveTree Bible, Mud Inc. Pocket Cribbage, and Handmark Monopoly V1) ... so my other options are
HTC Diamond - I get $ back, but, I lose microSD Card or HTC Pro, I pay around $100 more, but I get the microSD Card slot and sliding keyboard.
WiFi is important, and I should point out, I am on the TELUS Network.
HTC touch Pro 2
There are many same subject threads on XDA with further information....

hmmm TP2 ain't on Telus ... not yet ... not till the end of '09 / early '10 when they turn on their UMTS/HSPA
kepp this phone until tocu pro 2 comes out
One more for TP2
Is not the "Perfecrt" device but is one of the best candidates available
THIS IS NOT THE TOUCH PRO 2! This is the Touch Pro. Version 1. Telus Mobility DOES NOT HAVE TP2 yet and won't till probably December or January ...
I think they're all recommending that you wait for the TP2, they understand that you're talking about the TP1. I well third and fourth that notion. If you can wait for the TP2, it'll be well worth it. You'll probably have to pay quite a bit of money without a contract.
However, to answer your question, i'd definitely go with the TP over the Diamond.

I can't wait 14-18 months for the TP2 (which is about how long Telus will take to get it *L* as they have ONLY had the Treo Pro for about a month!) ... I think I'll go on Wednesday and get the Touch Pro.
Then why don't U buy it unlocked from another country next month
Because Telus is CDMA but soon (2010) to be UMTS/HSPA

Where on Earth do you live???? Sahara??? Middle of the Atlantic ocean?
Ok some usefull info for you:
Diamond - has serious heat issues and its very well know to fry its own screen. HTC are constantly fighting people and refusing to repair faulty units. I owned one and then returned it as it could also not play music without jumping/skipping. Both these issues can be easily found by going to the Diamond section of these forums.
TouchPro - (not the TP2 as everyone else seems to have got confused over) Never owned one so comments are limited to what can be read on this forum but, I miss having a keyboard and am now ordering an Asus on Monday that has a keyboard. Typing an email on the Diamond was a pain in the a*&e and its only marginaly easier on the bigger screen of my Omnia.
Palm thingy - never owned one, never used one. Can't comment.
If I HAD to chose between these then in all honesty, i'd probably keep the Palm! Why? HTC build quality sucks donkey balls. Its a well known and easily googled reputation. Its a shame really as they spec out the phones very well and seem to have every intention of making excellent devices, just somewhere the penny pinchers seem to take control and quality drops.
Best of luck with whatever you chose today
edit:
Diamond overheat issue - dont think anymore needs to be said on this
Music link - with $125 reward for fix
Music link - check out how many pages!
And just for good measure, another music link
Very quick google brings up over 32000 hits on hardware quality

Maybe the guy doesn't have/want to spend hundreds of £/€/$ on a phone?
OK so ... I was downtown yesterday, getting my Security Guard License and walked through Toronto Eaton Centre ... and I picked up the Touch Pro.
So far, I'm happy. I'm still testing things out and seeing what is good etc but ALL my games work, all my programs work AS THEY ARE SUPPOSED to, and I'm happy ...

Especially a phone that only does 3G at 2100MHz to use in a country that uses 850/1900.
Hi guys,
After having my Uni for a good while now and the HTC Monet before that, I've gotten quite attached to the whole smartphone shebang. I've got some cash to spend on a new one though, and was hoping that some of you guys could give me advice on what to get. I've picked a few that appeal to me, and any other suggestions in the same price range would be great.
I wouldn't object to second hand phones but only if they're good quality (like Computer Exchange's A-grade) and almost as new.
Right now, I'm thinking:
HTC Dream - Not a beautiful thing, but I'd like to see whether I prefer Android or WinMo; what's the general consensus on this?
HTC S740 (Rose, I think)
HTC Diamond
HTC Raphael
If I could choose one of these phones to have right now, it would definitely be the Raphael as it has everything I want (touch screen, QWERTY, GPS) and more. But there's a pretty large price difference between this and the others, and I don't know if it's worth another £100+ more than a Diamond just for the QWERTY keyboard and an FM radio.
The Diamond is one of my favourites, but after having a Uni for so long I'm a bit scared of having to tap out texts with the touch screen only - is this easy?
That problem is solved with the S740, however I don't really want to have to use WMS and a smallish screen for everything.
One final question as I'm a still a slight n00b - the AGPS systems don't cost anything to run after you buy something like TomTom 7, right? I'm not on a great contract and 3G access would cost me, so I don't want to keep having to access Google Maps or something every time I want to find my way around.
Anyway, thanks for reading. Sorry if I accidentally aggravated you guys by posting in the wrong board.
I added a poll too because it might make answers easier and, well, it looks pretty.
I'd get HTC Rose.
The best keyboard imo. The only other phones with keyboards that beat the crap out of it are HTC Touch Pro2 and Nokie E90.
Thanks, but how much would I miss out on with WMS?
Get the latest & greatest: the Touch Pro 2! See the Rhodium forum section for details...
As much as i would love a shiny Touch Pro2, there's no way I can afford it, both on contract and alone.
Maybe I should wait and see if the original Touch Pro gets any cheaper once the 2 is out...

Forgot to mention the best keyboard ever: Universal one!
even with its 4 years old the size of the keys and its confortability and size make it the best to this date!

If you are patient enough you can get a tp with a very low price, just wait till december when 2010 models go anounced and you´ll see!
consumism has a good side as all gets old very very fast...
by the way tp2 is out since a month or so!
if you need a keyboard the best option is tp from your list
Thanks Orb. Yeah, I have pretty much fallen in love with the keyboard on the Universal and it's the reason why I want a decent one on whatever I buy next. I sort of wish I didn't ask about the TP getting cheaper, because I want it now . Stupid impatience. Isn't Windows Mobile 7 supposed to be released in 2010? Maybe it would be worth waiting for that if it has multi-touch and things. I assumed that stuff won't work on most (if not all) existing handsets(?).
While we're talking, how much do you like your S621? I know a guy who got one when someone else upgraded, and he basically has no idea what it is nor how to use it. I was thinking of buying it cheap and messing with it a bit (I'm not considering it as a possible new phone).

If you wanna wait for wm7 then prepare to pay more for a device wich has it included!
I asume that it´s a matter of budget, so wm7 will not be cheap when its launched (I don´t think we see it before Sept 2010)
As for noble S621 I think a reasonable price (depending on the conditions) is around 100-150USD, it´s a great smartphone, but have a look on marketplace before you make your desicion, as you can find very good deals on used devices from trustable members.
Good luck then,
Oh, I definitely can't be bothered then
Someone will probably get something working on the popular devices anyway.
I think it's actually an Exaclibur (S620) but it has an AZERTY keyboard because it wasn't from the UK, and I could probably buy if from him for about £15 if I'm lucky. Although, it is a bit scratched.
I'll probably end up going for the original Touch Pro, maybe now or maybe when it's cheaper. Anyone got any cheap and good sites/shops? Except for things like eBay and Computer Exchange.
Yeah it´s the Excalibur S621 or S620 is almost the same.
If you can buy it for 15 pounds please let me know where!
I want one really!
Have you visited marketplace section on this forum?
I would go 1st than to go any other site as you can find good deals!
I just bought a Touch Pro @ good price.
let me know about the cheap excalibur please, I´m interested.
Cheers,
Okay, thanks for the tip.
I've asked about whether or not the Excalibur is up for grabs, but I think the keyboard is AZERTY rather than QWERTY (I don't know what they use in Mexico).
we use qwerty but I can get used to new layout...
still interested!
Cool, I'll tell you when I get a reply but it's possible that I won't be able to get my hands on it until September. If you don't mind me asking, how much did you pay for your TP?
Ok
Let me know
PM sent with your question
Thanks. So I guess the general idea is just to save up for a Touch Pro. And hopefully AGPS is free
Hi, looking to get a PDA after not having one for 2-3 years. I used to have a polaris and before that a wizard so I want to know which to consider to get now.
I would ideally like one with slide qwerty, but not particularly bothered.
I have trawled the net but all too confusing , so many out there now.lol.
I would spend up to £180 second hand. I know they all have their niggles , so what is a good all rounder that can be customised with roms and the like?
I used to flash and flash my old one's with allsorts of roms. Been to iphone and got bored of that so I am off back to the old trusty PDA.
What would you guys recommend??????
Cheers all!!

Hi, I need one with GPS built in ideally. I know the kaiser has it built in does the touch pro 2?
Which one has better customability? As in custom roms etc......
Was touching on kaiser myself but was thinking maybe a bit slow now, which would be the same allrounder with gps and rom cooking?
Thanks.

Hi, bought HTC tytn II brand new for £100. I think this is a good deal, u think??
I will play on this for a bit then upgrade when I get back into the swing of things.
Thanks for your suggestions guys.
P.s just one thing , the phone is locked to vodafone, I presume it is quite easy to unlock?
(It used to be!!)
Thanks.

Hi, Ahh, bit of a development, I got the Kaiser , then I got what I thought was the deal I could not refuse.
I got a brand new HTC touch 2 pro for £230, so now I have 2 PDA's when I only wanted one.....arrrggghhh.
I presume this is a good deal and worth keeping over the Kaiser?
What would you guys do?
The Kaiser is for sale if wanted by anyone. (If pro 2 any good)
P.s Why is the kaiser sim unlock free, but htc touch pro 2 isn't????????
thanks.
Stu.
I'd keep both the TP2 is a far superior device than Kaiser but keep the Kaiser as back up, b.t.w the price you got TP2 for is awesome
If you want to compare the specs Device Database @ top of forum will show you how much better TP2 is
