More Details on the HTC Magician/Compact MDA/Qtek S100
Posted by Pat Logsdon in "HARDWARE" @ 04:30 PM
Mobinaut has obtained some detailed information on the upcoming HTC Magician. Rather than quoting the Google translation, I'll list the most interesting features:
416 MHz PXA270 Processor
Option of 64 or 128 MB RAM and 64MB ROM
Triband GSM (900/1800/1900 OR 850/1800/1900)
GPRS Class 10
Support for AMR/AAC/WAV/WMA/MP3/MPEG4 codecs
SD/MMC Slot
1.3 MP Camera
Bluetooth 1.2 Stack
Mini USB Port
Bundled with an IR Keyboard
"Integrated Customer MMS"
Java J2ME Virtual Machine
Fax software
150 Gram Weight (including battery)
Available in France toward the end of November
Estimated Price of 500 EUR (approx $625 US)
There are some nice specs sprinkled into that tasty little device. AAC support? Will we finally be able to listen to iTunes tracks? Maybe? Mini USB port, bundled IR keyboard? This is all good stuff. The screen is still 2.8 inches, but maybe the extra goodies are enough to overlook that? What do you think?
