"T-Mobile has pulled the MDA off of it's website and after calling around to a few stores, they don't seem to have inventory available. This could be just a temporary shortage, or more likely the MDA is gone for good. The MDA debuted in February of last year as T-Mobile's first Windows Mobile 5 phone."
The T-Mobile MDA is part of the wildly popular HTC Wizard family, a device I've been using now for 18 months. I'll be sorry to see it go, but a device this old makes it one of the oldest still at retail. Have no fear though. T-Mobile isn't backing away from Windows Mobile.
MyMobile911 is reporting that the HTC Atlas will be coming to T-Mobile in August, running Windows Mobile 6. I'm glad to see they are going to continue to offer a device with this form-factor. If I were in the market today for a new device, I'd look for something as close to the Wizard as possible. It does make you wonder though why the MDA is being pulled now, at least 4 months before it's replacement will be available. :?
