O2 XDA IIi for Sale
Pls check PM.
Hi all!
My phone insurance just notified me as they are unable to source a new Xda2i they will instead send me a cheque for £450. I can basically spend it how I wish, but I'm resisting the temptation to go out and buy a set of wheels for my new car!
I have the car holder, sync cable, aluminium case etc all for an Xda2i - so I think I'll Ebay myself an Xda2i for around £150-180 ish.
Or do I go for an Exec at around £400 ish?
Or do I go for a K Jam/ Wizard for around £350 AND get an Xda2i ?
Or shall i try out the Ipaq equivalent?
what do you guys think ?!!
cheers!
Dennis! West London UK! (oh - and respond to my 2GB topic below!!)
A lot of Beer
OR
I would get the XDA IIi and then wait a couple of months for the Hermes (K-JAM update)....
But I definately would not go for the Universal as it's way too big... I had one but gave it to my father. He uses it for push mail, etc; not really as a phone!
Your money, your choice. Tell us what you do buy...
Thanks

DennisCooper - who the hell do you insure with!?
I've just got reimbursed on my damaged Magician, and I'm afraid to announce that I've jumped ship to the Mio A701 (should be here today, I'm so impatient)... looks like I'll have to keep my head down from now on on XDA forums, lol...

I will be visiting London in early August. What is the price of SIM and contract free brand new O2 XDA IIi (Alpine) on a O2 shop? I need the help of British members. Regards.
Can't buy this sim free from o2 shop unfortunately. Try here http://www.buymobilephones.net/store/merchant-4-38-273-phones.ihtml
£459
Thank you for the answer.
visit Computer Exchange (CEX) in harrow or tottenham court road. They sell mobiles and pda/mobiles. Check www.cex.co.uk for their stock. i know we've got an alpine in our brighton branch, and thats about £180. although they're second hand, they're just as good. (some are as-new).
Got mine at my store, though I did get my 15% staff discount too
Edit: Harrow has at least one, let me know if you want it reserved at all, or call them direct.
@flawless:
Thanks for the info, these are good prices. But I could not find a cex in tottenham court road. Is there any other name for this area?
Also is it possible to have an invoice for the second hand units?
Regards.

You won't find a cheap XDA-branded Alpine in the UK, O2 rips everybody off with their ridiculous prices (or they claw it back with extortionately overpriced tariffs... One of which I'm on :roll: )
Best bet is to buy an import Q-Tek or suchlike.
Hi all,
this morning I broke my chassis. It crashed on the street and has deep scratches now. Does anybody know, where I can replace it with a brand new HTC Chassis / Cover. And how much the price for this is?

Thanks! Cool site.

mmmm
oppss wrong thread, lol
Hi,
I'll be taking my family to Hong Kong for a few days next month. I have a mind to see if I can find an HTC Diamond Touch Pro, any recommendations on a good place to shop for phones in HK?
Any other recommendations for cool stuff to do in HK, good restaurants, or hotels with character are very welcome! Thanks!!
I'm from Hong Kong!
Yay! Another Hong Kong tourist.
Firstly (and most importantly, of course), there is a gadget heaven in a shopping district called Mong Kok (yes, feel free to giggle; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mong_Kok ), a street called Sai Yeung Choi Street: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sai_Yeung_Choi_Street
Map: http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?f=q&h....170265&spn=0.009627,0.019312&z=16&iwloc=addr
All the big shops there are legit and quite competitive, so don't forget to haggle!
Hotel-wise I don't know what your budget is, but the one that I usually put my clients in is the Royal Plaza Hotel, which is also in Mong Kok and is above a great shopping mall: http://www.royalplaza.com.hk/
If you're looking for a budget hotel, the Shamrock Hotel in Jordan (near Tsim Sha Tsui - another shopping heaven; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tsim_Sha_Tsui
) would be a good choice: http://www.shamrockhotel.com.hk/en/index.html
Obviously you should try to book via travel agents, which will make it a lot cheaper.
Restaurant: if you can read Chinese, there's a fantastic online guide for HK restaurants. I've personally picked three, one of which I have been to before (the second one):
Super Star Seafood Restaurant 鴻星海鮮酒家:

http://www.openrice.com/restaurant/sr2.htm?shopid=690
(map) http://www.openrice.com/restaurant/sr2.htm?shopid=690&mapType=1
Tack Hsin Restaurant 德興火鍋海鮮酒家:
http://www.openrice.com/restaurant/sr2.htm?shopid=3423
(map) http://www.openrice.com/restaurant/sr2.htm?shopid=3423&mapType=1
They are all in the Tsim Sha Tsui district - just an 8-minute underground train (we call it the MTR) journey from Mong Kok, and it is another shopping heaven. However, don't bother visiting those so-called "tax free" electronics shops, as we don't have value-added tax anyway plus they have many scamming tricks up their sleeves, just for tourists.
The buffet restaurant in the hotel is also very nice, and I think they do afternoon discounts which would be great for your family.

Feel free to ask me any questions.
Richard,
Wow, thanks for so much great info!! I'm planning the trip now and you have made my life a heck of a lot easier, my wife also thanks you for saving her from one of my "it will be an adventure..." trips!! I really appreciate the links to attractions, restaraunts, etc. Also thanks for the heads-up about the "tax-free" shops...apparently I was scammed last time I was there
You rock!
No worries
My pleasure. Enjoy Hong Kong!
More attractions
Just remembered some more places that I missed out:
Kadoorie Farm & Botanic Garden - beautiful countryside park, requires bus to get to but definitely worth it. It is something that you'd never expect to see in such a crowded city! http://www.kfbg.org/kfb/homepage.xml?lang=en
Mong Kok Computer Centre (again, for us lads really): http://maps.google.com.hk/maps?f=q&...4.17107&spn=0.004814,0.009656&z=17&iwloc=addr
Popular (and also my favourite) street markets, most are in Mong Kok: http://www.discoverhongkong.com/eng/touring/popular/ta_popu_open.jhtml
Of course, you can always refer to the official Hong Kong Tourism Board's website - plenty of tips there: http://www.discoverhongkong.com/eng/index.jsp
Thanks again for all the help, I've got a pretty good-looking trip planned based in no small part on your advice. I did find a good website that has pretty good prices for hotels, www.agoda.com
Thanks!
Wow, that's a neat website. I'll recommend it to my friends in the future. Thanks a lot.
Just out of interest: which hotel did you pick in the end? Still in the Mong Kok area?
Yeah, I booked at the Prudential Hotel, which appears to be right on the border between Mong Kok and Tsim Sha Tsui, seems like a good place to be. I read about 100 positive reviews of the place on various travel forums, the MTR stop is actually in the basement of the hotel and supposedly you can easily walk to the markets. Which is good since I am traveling with two women who's primary goal in life is to die with the greatest number of shoes
Do you have any experience with this hotel?
Shamrock Hotel, which I recommended, is also directly above the same MTR station (Jordan). I don't know much about the hotel you've chosen, but the 100 reviews can't be wrong (unless they are fake, of course) so you should be fine.
Good. Thanks.
That's good! thanks. I used the sinohotel.com, booked the Shamrock Hotel.
