See, in the Dopod 838 Pro thread, there's something like this:

Different Serial Number 838 Pro has different shortcomings. Is there a list for Kaiser? I thought maybe some of you vet who visit other PDA forum board regularly may know?

Is E-Ten available in Malaysia? I also want to ask, Microsoft announced that Windows Mobile 6.1 is coming out in the 1Q of 2008 and new PDA devices with Windows Mobile 6.1 will be out somewhere 2Q of 2008. Is Tytn II upgradeable to Windows Mobile 6.1? Any article somewhere by HTC to confirm this findings?

Ok thanks for the tip! You guys has been real helpful.

Mind sharing what applications do you have installed in your Tytn II? Do LYP.net has the Tytn II owner list?

I never even heard of Eten, but my heart is set with HTC. I was advised that Windows Mobile 6 will only come out in 1Q of 2008 and PDA loaded with 6.1 will be out 2Q. Maybe I will buy but later near CNY only, hopefully got significant price drop.

Ok, dumb question - why buy HTC Tytn II and not O2 XDA Stellar? At Gsmarena.com, I see they are both the exact same thing!!

Just like HTC Touch Cruise versus O2 XDA Orbit II. They are both the same thing but ratings give the O2 better. Why?

I just tried my friend's Tytn II, to take picture in the night. I am crazy over this phone but then it is sad to say that camera, during night-shot sucks to da max!!

When I press the button and snap the picture at point A, the click-clack is so slow then when I moved away to point B, the picture saved onto the phone is point B even though I had pressed the button during point A.

Pls don't expect a pda phone camera to perform like a normal phone camera.

Yes, I'd think my expectations are a little bit wrong. I didnt expect the auto-focus to take up such a long time to snap a pict during the night.

Called up SiS Distribution today for TyTN II, to buy on Saturday but then my friend said no stock. Called up Geeks at 1-Utama, no stock either! Crap!! I was trying to get it before CNY and now the world has no stock! This is just great!

Even after TyTN II is out, the predecessor the 838 Pro is still going at RM2,499 so I doubt in 2 months time, the price will make any significant changes.

Have anyone tried to run SNES , GBA, FinalBurn , Neogeo or others emulator on TYTN 2 ? how is the performance ?

I heard that the performance of TYTN 2 is horrible because lack of video driver supported and not using hardware accelerator, even in movie playing.

Yes, its true about the video driver part. You can wiki it for more information.

My "T" and "C" lost, so I removed what left with my FINGER NAIL! Previously someone meantion about sand paper. Here I assure you, "you DON'T NEED that". LOL

Now, here come something interesting. Previously someone collected petition regarding video driver issue to HTC; now lawsuit action against HTC had been planned.

I'm not going to buy Kaiser until the above has been addressed. I tried my friend's Kaiser today and I find it too slow even though I only open a few application.

Nah, I want this phone but I wont buy it until the video driver issue has been addressed. I just dont think it's worth it to spend RM3,000 on a device that is underperforming. I will get it as soon as it's fixed.
