O2 Announces XDA IIs -- Based Off HTC Blue Angel?
Posted by Janak Parekh in "HARDWARE" @ 04:00 PM
TekGuru is reporting on O2's plans to release a successor to the popular XDA II product in the Europe.
"Having secured over a third of the UK’s wireless handheld market* with the Xda II, O2 today announced the introduction of two brand new Xda II devices, the Xda IIs and XDA IIi. The new devices will include new enhancements to the integrated PDA and mobile handset, whilst retaining the core functions of the original Xda II platform that have proved so popular with both consumer and business customers. The Xda IIs will be available in the UK and Ireland on 1st November 2004, Germany by December 2004, and the XDA IIi early 2005."
It clearly looks like the HTC Blue Angel, which we've previously referred to as the XDA III/MDA III, so I guess there's yet another name for it. I like the black styling, myself. The unit's quadband -- so I hope we see unlocked versions in North America soon. 8)
