MDA question - General Questions and Answers

I am thinking about buying a MDA, it's only 50 dollar. Can it be upgrade to WM6.1? Is it even worthy to upgrade to 6.1? The only difference I see is the chat style text messaging

MDA III

Can anyone make comment.
I'm dying to get my hands on an MDAIII from T-Mobile. I must stick with them as I am in contract on the old Precept plan giving me 7am-6pm unlimited national calls/tmobile calls.
I need to really get my emails from our own mail server and was wondering if anyone knows if the MDAIII can utilise the Blackberry Push function.
Does anyone know if Instant Email is available on the MDAIII from T Mobile once you have an MDAIII. I speak with T-mobile everyother day trying to find someone there who knows more than just the price.
I simply want MDAIII with Instant email (50mb).
Anybody got any specific Tmobile experience with the MDA III.
Thakns in advance.
David.

TyTN onT-MO (USA)

I've been using the i-Mate JAM for almost 2 years. Decided to bypass the Wizard and wait for the next generation device (preferably with 3G). I am on T-MO and have grandfathered unlimited data plan for $19.99. For the last 2 weeks I tried the Dash and although I loved the device in general (especially phone part of it) it doesn't do it for me. The shortcomings of the Outlook (no notes synchronization, notes field in Contacts does not exist and notes in the Tasks and Events only sync one way) and luck of software I am used to on ppc phone are my problems. I would love to the get the 3G, but T- MO does not have it yet, which means I would have to move to the Cingular. I looked into their data plans and to pay $40 for the unlimited plan seems ridiculous for me. But even using Edge on the Dash made me jealous. It is noticeably faster than the GPRS I have.
So what do you think? Should I get the TyTN and use it for now on T-MO with Edge and wait until 3G will become available or should I get an MDA with 1 year contract? Is there anyone who is using the TyTN on T-MO?
Any advice would be appreciated.
The TyTN on T-Mobile is the MDA Vario II - at least in Europe.

Dose any one used 3 (Three) Network SIM with Treo 750

Dose any one use 3 (Three) Network SIM with Treo 750 UK
Pay as u Go - Free Windows Live mesenger until end of 2007 (in UK)
hi speed internet 3G
But dose any body know is Treo 750 goes under 3 compatibal device i mean the dont offer Treo 750 on their site at all but i i have my own Unlocked Treo will Sim only PAY AS U GO work for mi in terms of Free Windows Live mesenger until end of 2007 (in UK) will they be able to recognize Windows Live mesenger Traffic so the wont chare it to my
GPRS/EDGE/UMTS/3G bill or whot ever
I am on 3 UK pay monthly. The Treo set up itself automatically (both with WM5 and 6) so you should have no problems.
They should recognise it as MSN traffic but give it a try and then check My3 to see if you have been charged. I have the £5 X-Series add on and I use that for MSN (though Live Messenger doesn't seem to work but PocketMSN did), Skype and Exchange ActiveSync (push email) and have only ever been charged the £5 per month.
offtopic - Today at the base station near my house, 3 upgraded it to HSDPA. Getting almost 1Mbit/s

They say Windows Live Mesenger how come it doesn't seem to work ??
how much do u pay monthly ? and is it 18 or 12 month ?
so u cen get a contract and get any hand set from three tale SIM out and put it in to Treo 750 ??
All up I pay £30 (£25 for voice and £5 for data). It's a 12 month contract. I originally got a 12 month contract with 12 months free, so effectively, I am only paying for the data and any non-included calls (e.g. 0845, 0870, international). I got a LG U400 on the contract (the DJ phone) which I flogged on fleabay and the money contributed to my Treo. So yes, provided your Treo is unlocked, you can plug in a 3 sim card and away you go. The Treo will set itself up.
Not sure why Live Messenger doesn't work as PocketMSN did on Windows Mobile 5. It may be the Vodafone ROM (though I have removed the files in the extended ROM). At the end of the day, on a Windows Mobile 5, it doesn't matter which version you use because you will only be doing text chat anyways, so if you can, stick with PocketMSN.

Release date for T-Mobile UK?

Anyone know when this phone will be out on T-Mobile in the UK? I have seen references to an MDA Vario Compact 4 but no dates.
I spoke to someone about a weekago and they said the were no planned new releases in the MDA range. I just moved from them to o2 for the orbit2, much much better than the compact 2 I was using
I'm gonna leave Tmobile too. I wanted to upgrade from Vario II to Vario III, but being as I'm only a loyal customer who's been with them for 2 years, they wanted £270 for it!!! Very tempted by the Orbit 2 with the bolt on online upgrade promotion to web access. How is O2's web access compared to Tmobiles?

Upgrade advice ( contracts nearly up )

Hi guys, hopefully my low post count doesnt stop me getting some advice from some people who obviously know alot more than me about smartphones ?
Im currently on O2 with an XDA orbit, now ive stopped using it for calls/texts and only use it for tomtom6. Main reason i stopped using it is its a little slow and found texting on a touch screen to tedious (spelling?). So currently using my O2 sim in my unlocked k850i.
Now...my contract is up in roughly 2/3 weeks and was considering another smartphone, hopefully one that will play movies as im a student and work part time night shifts in a garage, it would be nice to be able to watch a movie. From what ive read the Tytn II/MDA Vario III/O2 XDA stellar will play movies fine if encoded correctly and played with tcpmp ?.
Dilema is...i have the following options. ( without ringing up and haggling O2 )
O2 XDA Stellar : 18 month contract, £35 per month, £89.99 one off fee, 600 minutes & unlimited texts.
or
T-Mobile MDA Vario III : 18 month contract, £36 per month, £0 one off fee, 1000 minutes & unlimited texts.
or
Something else ? ive no idea what else is as good.
Also, what are the differences in the two options above, i know they are the same handset but branding will be different wont it. I know the stellar comes with the " better " headset that has a 3.5mm jack for my sony headphones, does the Vario III also come with this ?
Thanks in advance for your help ( will hopefully save me getting a SonyEricsson C902 )
Andy
Nobody ? , somebody out there must have advice for me surely.
