Guest nickcornaglia Posted January 24, 2005 Report Posted January 24, 2005 http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...me=STRK:MEWA:IT Someone was selling a quad band Dopod 818 (iMate Jam) on ebay. The price got alittle too high for me. ($650) If anyone knows where to buy them...please let me know. I need the Dopod and not the iMate as I require the 850 band for Cingular.
Guest yoos Posted January 24, 2005 Report Posted January 24, 2005 I question whether or not that is really a quad band... I mean, I have no idea myself... but based on what alot of people have said all over the net, it seems there are two different versions (one with 850/1800/1900 and one with 900/1800/1900). People say it's different hardware actually for the 850 vs 900 and these HTC phones don't have all four in one single device. I think some of the support forums on expansys.us has info on this.
Guest yoos Posted January 24, 2005 Report Posted January 24, 2005 Actually, if you look under the white 'Features' section it says '(Tri-band)'
Guest nickcornaglia Posted January 24, 2005 Report Posted January 24, 2005 (edited) Judging by that I was assuming that it was quad band...but only running triband at any one time: 850, 1800, 1900 or 900, 1800, 1900 ...I (and the seller) am probably wrong. Those specs are probably dependant on which network is buying from dopod. Edited January 24, 2005 by nickcornaglia
Guest nickcornaglia Posted January 24, 2005 Report Posted January 24, 2005 (edited) I'll take the ETEN M500 too. Though I prefer the looks of the imate/dopod...The specs of the ETEN M500 are great as well....and is DEFINITELY Quad-Band. And despite the link on msmobiles...it's only about 4mm bigger than the jam in each direction. Edited January 24, 2005 by nickcornaglia
Guest Paul [MVP] Posted January 27, 2005 Report Posted January 27, 2005 No Quad band Jams, just versions with 850 instead of 900. I definitely prefer the Jam to the Eten I think... P
Guest nickcornaglia Posted January 28, 2005 Report Posted January 28, 2005 I finally figured that out. I definitely like the jam over the eten, but without 850...it's worthless to me. So I'm on a quest for the eten. Can anyone vouch for this company??? http://www.smartdevicesdirect.com/product_...products_id=769
Guest philgriffiths Posted January 28, 2005 Report Posted January 28, 2005 I actually prefer the look of the Eten. But four mm to me is actually a pretty big difference in size when thinking of devices this small
Guest Chaser81 Posted January 30, 2005 Report Posted January 30, 2005 I like the look of the ETEN, it's slightly Ipaq 2210 in shape (and probably size). I think I will stick with my Jam though!
Guest nickcornaglia Posted January 30, 2005 Report Posted January 30, 2005 Actually it's about 3-4mm bigger than the jam in each direction. Definitely a possibility for me since it has the 850 band. If I can get one here in the US. But if the JAM cam along with 850 first. I'd have no problems buying that!
