Guest MitchellO Posted February 23, 2005 Report Posted February 23, 2005 I haven't opened the cd that came with my xda mini because i already have outlook and activesync 3.8 installed. Am i missing out on anything? I don't want to open the CD unless there are any extras. Thanks.
Guest MitchellO Posted February 24, 2005 Report Posted February 24, 2005 Anybody? Does anyone have an O2 XDA II Mini? Or are they all network branded or imate JAMs?? I am from Australia.
Guest TheMadScot Posted February 25, 2005 Report Posted February 25, 2005 I wasn't aware that the II mini had been released; at least not in the UK... If you're a "lucky sod' that got yours early, this might be why no-one else is replying yet! FWIW; the CD should have Outlook, ActiveSync and perhaps a few other programs to install, such as a voice dialler application and GPRS modem drivers that will allow you to use your Mini as a wireless modem for a laptop or PC. So if you've already got Outlook and aren't intersted in the rest (you can download ActiveSync after all) then there's no need for you to rip open that package. Hope this helps.
Guest MitchellO Posted February 25, 2005 Report Posted February 25, 2005 (edited) I have activesync from my iPAQ 4355 ( I upgraded to 3.8 ) and already had outlook, so unless anybody says there are any utilities or something interesting on the CD, it can stay sealed. The XDA II Mini is available here in australia. It has a bonus 256Mb over the JAM. I got mine on ebay (brand new from a retailer) for $945. At the shops, they sell from $1099-1199. Bargain! Even with the SD WiFi it is still cheaper! Edited February 25, 2005 by MitchellO
Guest Chaser81 Posted February 26, 2005 Report Posted February 26, 2005 The XDAIIs came with a "utilities" pack which included SPB GPRS monitor and Fonix Voice Dialler, so might be the same for XDAII mini. Might be worth investigating.
Guest MitchellO Posted February 26, 2005 Report Posted February 26, 2005 Well, I don't intend to sell this one anytime soon (I kept my last 3 pocket pcs for 5-6months!), so I might as well crack it open.
Guest dt_bogor Posted March 7, 2005 Report Posted March 7, 2005 I just got my XDA2 mini, not looked at the CD yet, but will post details of the contents later. Just too busy playing with the unit at the moment. cheers dtbogor (english living in Jakarta)
Guest MitchellO Posted March 8, 2005 Report Posted March 8, 2005 I was glad I didn't get to open the CD. I sent my unit back to hopefully be replaced with a new one due to a faulty pixel. Still would like to know whats on it.

Still would like to know whats on it. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Activesync, Outlook and a directory called OEM, this has 2 folders, APPS - EMPTY !!! :shock: and DOCS which a PDF manual inside. so basically hopeless from O2 cheers dtbogor
Guest MitchellO Posted March 9, 2005 Report Posted March 9, 2005 Cool. Thanks for the response. I won't bother opening it then when it comes back. I want my XDA Mini back sooooo much.... I am lost without it.
Guest MitchellO Posted March 20, 2005 Report Posted March 20, 2005 Well I opened the CD last night, and what a waste of time that was. Nothing! There was Activesync, Outlook (still 2002!), the manual, and . Yep, nothing.
