TyTN II or Mogul? - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General

Hi guys,
I need some advice. I am about to buy one of those phones, I was firstly interested in the TyTN II because of the "Tilt" screen feature and RAM/CPU power but I was offered a brand new and activated Mogul with a carrier in my country (Iusacell, Mexico) for $300 less than the TyTN II... After reading all the problems with the video drivers of the TyTN II, should I buy it or buy the Mogul and wait for a better device from HTC in the future? I only have 1 day left to decide it...
Any help would be very much apreciated.

Shop Dithering

I have the Mda Vario II.
I'd like to hear from Kaiser owners if it is worth the cash and if so why as I'm "shop dithering" over whether to buy one.
Thanks !

Trade for new Touch Cruise?

Anyone want to trade their HTC Branded TytnII(Kaiser) for a new HTC Branded Touch Cruise?
Have one in prefect condition with about 8 hours on the call timer.
It is in perfect condition, zero damage or screen defects, screen protector since day one.
It comes in the original box with all accessories, etc
I will also include a new second battery.
PM me or email guardianzx9

Thx

You do know that the TyTN II is worth around €90,- more than the cruise?
Also I would advise you to post this question on some HTC forums instead of on XDA, I think you have more chance to find soemone that wants to trade on forums like that
Cool, I will try HTC forums too.
I actually paid less for the TytnII from expansys than I gave for the TC.

Damn, too bad you don't want the ATT Tilt version... I wanted the Touch Cruise but my wife said it was too expensive.

What to buy: TyTN II vs. Tilt

I have been wanting to get a HTC TyTNII for a long time now, and on amazon today they have them really cheap (With a 2yr contract with At&t). My contract is almost up in a few weeks and I was wondering if I should go get the Tilt for $175 or wait and get the TyTN II from the store here for $750. I do have a things I like about both but I cant decide.
Tilt:
PROS: Cheap, Can afford it now
CONS: I don't like the shiny button pad on the front, some versions have a camera some don't.
TytN II:
PROS: Looks nicer, front camera, nicer default rom.
CONS: Expensive, will have to wait a while before I can afford it.
So I want to know what the people here have to say, which one should I get? Tilt or TyTN II
There was already a thread about this.

Got to send my brand new TyTN II back for a refund....Where to buy another one??

I ordered a HTC TyTN II from MobilePC.com but when I got it the mini usb port did not work So they offered to give me a full refund or exchange for another phone since they are out of HTC TyTN II pocket pc's.
Where online can I get this phone for around $550 or less? I want to get it from a reliable source with returns or someone local in Phoenix, AZ where I can test it out.
Also Anyone recommend any other phones I might want to consider before buying a new TyTN II?
Thanks

Buy one of mine. I have two and one is in perfect condition. It is sim/cid unlocked and comes with everything. Going to list it on ebay this week for 375.00.

Is it a TyTN II or a tilt? Can anyone on here vouch for you? Just heard bad things buying on the forums.
Thanks
CC
It is a tilt. My ebay username is tonyandjeff if you want to look me up. I could list it on ebay and just have you buy if from there. That way you get all the buyer protection that ebay/paypal affords you.
Jeff
I found tilts online locally for $299-$350 so I am going to check those out first. If you want to drop your price then maybe.
Do you have skype installed on your Tilt? If so how does it work?
Thanks
CC
Locally would be the best bet for you. I do not use skype so I can't help you there

Some questions about the Tytn 2 :)

hi guys, 1st post =)
I have a few q.s about the Tytn 2 before I decide to buy one ..
1. General opinions about the handset? I'm looking for a new gadget to play with and having used my friend's Tytn 2 this seems to be a worthy contender.
2. Do the Touch Diamond/Pro offer much over the Tytn 2 for the extra cost? Is it a good idea to buy the Tytn 2 2nd hand as people upgrade their handsets to newer models?
3. If i do buy a Tytn 2 I will likely buy one off ebay, unless anyone can suggest anywhere else in the Uk where I can get one cheaper. How much is a realistic price to pay for a Tytn 2 now? Used or new?
thanks!

If you're looking for something with all the bells and whistles to play with, there's not much better and there's nothing that offers the same combination of features. I find the tilting screen very useful when watching videos on the train.

I only have a UK bought HTC TyTN II so cant compare. Does the Touch Diamond/Pro have a tiltable screen (to angle it right when watching videos)? What about expandable microSD memory capability? What do you want it for (other than 'playing with')?
I guess it depends how much risk is involved in the 2nd hand purchase as to whether that’s a good idea. These phones do have some known 'issues' one of which is that the USB port can be susceptible to failure under certain circumstances and you can't really tell until you've tested it under Activesync and tried charging it a few times if that works well. I was in a phone shop a few weeks back when a very angry customer who'd bought his 2nd hand TyTN II there began to tear strips off the shopkeeper. His phone seemed to have a faulty USB port but it also looked as if it'd had a new casing at some stage too - who knows what horrors the poor thing had endured? You need to really know what you're looking at if you buy 2nd hand. If you're not a seasoned veteran, it's safer buying new.

I got my HTC Branded TyTN II back at the end of September 07 and from memory it was about £160 with a 12 month £35 for 500 mins/500 texts Vodafone contract. The company I bought it from is no longer trading and prices have come down since then (especially so if you want a carrier branded variant - they weren't even around back then). Do some research on the net and in phone shops - in the end it's you who has to be satisfied with what you're getting. As it's your first post, you'll need to read the wiki here too - compulsory reading for all newcomers!
What about a HTC Universal/XDA Exec/MDA 5000 as a cheaper option?
What about researching. No one can tell you what one to by. I usually live by this motto.
If reading the specs of a phone doesn't get you excited. you Will loose interest in your "new phone" fast.
