iMate Jamin on TMobile?


I'm coming to the end of my current Orange contract, and think (for various
reasons) it's about time that I jumped ship. The only thing that may stop me
is that the phone I want next is the SPV M600. TMobile were doing their
equivalent of the SPV M500, but that appears to have been withdrawn.

Anyone know if/when the iMate Jamin (which I believe is the alternate guise
of the M600) will be on TMobile, or maybe on O2/Voda?

TIA

After nearly 10 years as a loyal Orange customer (I have the SPV M500),
I've moved to T-Mobile, due to their Web'n'Walk tariff. I actually got
a MDA Compact II (like SPV M500, but with more memory and Windows
Mobile 5), but in fact simply unlocked my SPV M500 and put the T-Mobile
sim in it.

I'm afraid I can't answer your q re Imate Jamin. Yes, it's got Windows
Mobile 5 and built in wifi, but with T-Mobile's Web'n'Walk, wifi
becomes less relevant.

Personally, I'm waiting for the next generation (HTC Trinity?) with 3g
(or even faster). If you don't mind the extra thickness of a slide-out
keyboard, apparently T-Mobile may be bringing out the Vario II (has 3g)
in June/July.

Simon, thanks for the reply. I am not really interested in using the device
for wireless data as such, and I have zero interest in 3G. I will use the
WiFi, but that will be almost exclusively at home for a few things (I fancy
trying Skype out on it). I'm really looking for something to take over the
roles currently served by my SPV C500 and Axim X5. I use the PDA mainly for
GPS/SatNav and both the PDA and phone as personal organisers linked up with
Outlook on my PC. I like the SPV/Windows mobile platform, so want to stick
with it, and the M600 seems ideal for what I want. If the cost wasn't so
high, I'd also look at the JasJar/M5000.

I've also since found that O2 are planning their own version of the M600
called the XDA Neo, just can't seem to find when it's due to be released.

I've heard mixed reports about Skype on the MDA Vario (random soft
resets etc). Skype say you need a 300mhz processor or greater, the Vario
has a 195Mhz, maybe the Vario II will be better.
