price here

The htc magic more better ...

The biggest difference is the screen, where Magic is capacitive touch screen, and Tattoo is resistive touch screen.
Resistive=pressure (fingernail/stylus)
Capacitive=touch (finger)

in fact, any other Android phones by HTC are the better replacements, Magic is one of the oldest phone to have Android OS.

Thanks for useful info!

I think i will get the HERO. Hopefully after LEGEND is introduce, the HERO price will drop..

The RRP for Hero has been officially reduced to +-1.8k.
If you want the price to drop further, then you'll have to wait for months.

means is it good to get Magic now? its only 1.3k plus

If u have free time , u can to Htc Promotion there have a look.
Thanks u 1

1.3k plus is the Value price to get it .
If u have free time , u can to Htc Promotion there have a look.

Thanks u !

good or not depends on you.
altho it is upgradable, but then you should know that with the pace Android/HTC is moving, well, Magic may not get so much of attention.

if you want to keep the price to the min, and doesn't mind being in the same level while others have all the newer stuff, then it's good for you =)

Wonder if Magic can have the Multi TOuch as Hero has?
the zoom-in function?

SenseUI as well?

Can, but you'll have to root it and stuff for the mean time.

hmmmm, its upgradable as in firmware? I am new to android and HTC because i've used Nokia and SE for the past few years, changed to LG last year and it really sucks.... since neowin reported adroid is growing fast, i wanna try android...

what do you mean tho by same level as other having new stuff?

yes the firmware.
sorry for the poor description.

say now, tattoo are running on Androif 1.6, while the latest available version is Android 2.1.
you may be able to root it right away after you got ur device, but then you may not get 'official releases' for later versions (or so) because the Tattoo and Magic are the older gen phones, and the hardware will be incompatible/not so competitive for the newer versions. in this situation, you may be stucked in the older version.

take another example, the HTC Hero is much more promising as it is (compared with Magic) the first phone to have Sense UI, and it is competitive enough to get the upgrade 'attention'. And thus, news are coming out that version 2.1 is to be released for Heros.

And yes, this situation happens to most technology devices, however, Android is new, and the newer versions will come out much faster than other OSes, thus, getting a 'newer generation' of phone is preferable, IMHO.

oh ok understood... but than now hero very expensive and i feel that the design of the device ain't as nice as magic, don't you think?

maybe can consider tattoo. its also the newer gen like hero. hero release 1st than follow by tattoo.

wah don't want! HTC Tattoo design even worst!!! lol... the big giant button spoil the look... how i wish magic can hold hero firmware with no problem... but anyways, for a basic user like me, want to sms, online, call and ebuddy only... is magic good enough? basically, i sometimes do take random photos too....

and also, i want to know does the magic have any lag to it when its in the gallery... LG Viewty is super lag where u need to wait about 7-8 second to load one single image...
