Thinking about selling the ol' XDA1 -- how much?? - MDA, XDA, 1010 General

As I'm not on the road as much as I used to be, I'm finding I really don't need my ppc phone. I find it too big to carry around in the summer in shorts pockets anyway, so I switched to a nice little Motorola v300.
I'm sure eventually I'm going to get another PDA Phone - perhaps this fall or winter, but I'm thinking by then there will be plenty of new stuff out, so I might as well just try to sell this one I've got now.
Anyway, enough babbling. I've got a T-Mobile branded phone, with WM2003 (final relase) OS. All of the original accessories are included, as is a nice EB Cases leather slipper case.
Any offers out there? What have these things been going for lately? If anybody's interested, you can email me at [email protected]

i am too in the same possition I live i florida so the summer gets pretty hot and will not be able to where the pants with the big pockets, i have the xda 1 with the new t-mobile rom wm2003 all the new software registered alll the software recomended by the previous posts, all the original accessories for it, plus a krusell case, the original t-mobile case, extra stylus, extra charger, car adapter, anybody interested please contact me at [email protected] thank you.

Just bought used XDA
Just bought a used XDA from ebay (T-Mobile MDA, specifically), described as excellent condition. Not much in the way of extras. Paid $190 + $12 shipping. These seem to be going for $190 - $250 or so.

Oooh, i hadn't even considered all the software I've got for this thing. Bunch of games, plus Journal Bar, Battery Pack, etc, etc...hmmm

Extra Software....
The big problem is that a new buyer may or may not see the value of the software you bought for it... so I don't know if that will add much to your final selling price. Extra accessories often boosts price, but, I haven't seen that a bunch of registered shareware does (I could be wrong). Also, usually, I would think, this software is registered to you and they might have problems getting updates (could be wrong).

True... would be difficult for them to get updates, I guess. Also, may have trouble entering registration codes, etc, as some are dependent on the user name entered for the device. :roll:

8525 dummy housing off ebay?

Hi i have a cingular 8525 and plan on purchasing a tilt.....so to pay for it so it doesnt hurt my wallet as much (im still on contract haha) i decided to sell the 8525. however, the phones condition cosmetically isnt exactly the best.
I recall seeing from time to time on posts on various forums people mentioning using a dummy phone to replace the housing. The only problem with this is im under the impression that dummy phones are simply glued together? so i was wondering if anyone knows or can varify if this is possible?
it would definetly be cheaper than getting a new oem housing. i understand the material on the dummy phone isnt the best but basically i dont care much at this point as long as it works and looks decent enough when i sell it. because the phone itself, even the screen is in flawless condition.
any help on this would be appreciated. thanks.
any ideas? ive seen people make mention of getting dummy phones before.
Going the dummy route, isn't smart. ha. You have to be really good with an exacto knife and assuming you have taken apart a 8525 before, it can be a challenge to get it all back together and working properly both electronically and physically (like the slider)
I would say just sell it in its honest form. Just how you have it. Its better than trying to decieve someone into buying a like new phone.
well, yea. i understand what your saying, and dont get me wrong my intention was not to be sneaky and underhanded. its just that the phone cosmetically doesnt look all that great, yet it works flawlessly. it has no problems. people whom have already showed interest in it wont buy it for anything more than $200, and other than the cosmetics the phone to me seems like it would be at best worth $300. at the same time though, i guess it would not be fair to give them something that was cheaper and not as durable than it is in its current form.
it doesnt matter now though. ive found a deal on the phone through att's service for 149.99 w 2yr contract. seeing as how my current contract is barely into its 6month i figure what the hey? if i cancel itll be $175. anyway around the cancel fee? if not its still an awesome deal as it would only be about $350 after all is said and done.
thanks for the help in advance.
yeah, the dummy phone has its buttons molded, and the plastic feels a lot more flimsy. It wouldn't be a nice route to go. I would recommend getting the one off of cnn.cn

Where to buy HTC Star Trek?

Hi guys,
I have just found this mobile and I must say that I love it. The only problem is that I don't know where to buy it!
Do have any idea?
T.
Ebay. That's where I got mine.
But they don't ship to the Czech Rep.
If you are from Czech Republic, you can buy HTC Star Trek (Qtek 8500) on aukro.cz but you must have full registration (on aukro.cz).
Not Easy
I am in the UK, it was sold as the SPV F600 here but I can't find it anywhere not even on ebay, I have bought one from the US but its in such a bad state I cant use it so I would love to get my grubby hands on a good one.
Star Trek on Ebay this week
Hi,
I have a Star Trek on Ebay this week, it's a great phone but not really for me! I have an Excalibur as my main phone and have decided to stick with that instead.
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&item=300305116657
It's all in very good condition - and it's the version with the larger battery and 128MB ROM, too.
It currently runs Pampooh's 6.1 Standard ROM.
Take a look and see what you think. I know these things are rare, and I can see the appeal as it's great to have a clamshell phone with so much power.
You may want to consider one thing and that is with the data speed. It is not 3G. My only other complaint is with the keypad. I would prefer a pad that you can feel. This one is more or less a flat surface so you have trouble feeling for keys. Otherwise it is a great phone. It's got a good solid feel to it and the flip design is desirable for many reasons. Personally I like to talk into a phone where the microphone is actually in front of your mouth. The biggest advantage is that the screen is protected when the phone is closed. I often wonder why nobody thought to move forward with the concept of a flip-smartphone.
at expansys.com they have it in B-stock (second hand devices) for less then 60GBP
it was so cool... i love the startrek and miss my old pinkish one
Newegg.com (US) has it for $99 brand new. I don't know if they ship overseas.

I have mine for sale, it is used and comes with all accessories. I can part with it for $70 +$28 for worldwide shipping through EMS.

Considering an HTC Flyer

It seams as if only Best Buy is not including the "Magic Pen" and everyone else is, so I'm curious does the version sold on Amazon include the Pen, being as it is slightly more expensive. Thank you
http://www.amazon.com/HTC-Flyer-Android-7inch-Tablet/dp/B0053RJ3F8/ref=cm_rdp_product
My guess is a no - it looks like although it's sold on Amazon's site, it's being distributed by another company that decided to hike the price up a bit. I'm quite sure the Flyer is exclusive to Best Buy even though this random company is selling them. Odd that when going to their website at, wwdelectronics.com and do a search for the Flyer, it doesn't turn up. Anyway, to my knowledge, only way to get the pen included is to get it from Sprint by signing up for a contract.
You can always get a different pen that works just fine for a lot less:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1122541
Considering too. Here's to hoping for a price drop or pen inclusion soon. Also waiting on specs on their 10" tablet to be released. May be today, supposed to be an HTC event or something...
The Amazon post has zero information about the model number, region, etc., or whether the pen is included or not. So I would suggest contacting the seller and asking them, as that is the only way to prevent getting screwed into paying more for nothing.
