I plan to buy an O2 II Mini PDA phone about 3 weeks later. But i wonder if this phone is upgradable to WM5?
When should i expect other phones with WM5 come out?
theres no WM 2005 yet... if you want to buy phone with WM2005 then wait for HTC Wizard it is awesome (WM2005 already, Keyboard built-in, Wifi built-in ....)

Can I upgrade my T-Mobile MDA compact III to the WLan Version?
Thanks for your help!
why you dont use "search"?
Well this upgrade is possible, yes.
1. Send your MDA Compact III back to T-Mobile and ask for your money
2. Buy an XDA-Orbit or original HTC P3300
3. Done, enjoy WLAN
Sorry for sarcasm, but this has been discussed to the max, there is no way of getting WLAN to work on a MDA C III by any Software "Tricks".
This device is simply not equipped with propper Hardware.
...
Yes, I absolutely agree with Samson711. Still drag up this useless theme. There is lot of about MDACIII and WLAN and it's not definitely possible.
mobile2007 - If I am not mistaken, the German version does not come with WLAN, but other versions (Dutch, UK, etc...) may come with it.

I have the MDA III on T-mobile UK, it does not have wifi. I was offered the MDA Mail (HTC Excalibur) and once again T-mobile sell the device with wifi removed !!
I think only T-Mobile Netherlands sell their MDA Compact III With WIFI, therefor its an Artemis, whereas T-Mobile UK and Germany sells HTC Hero

Hello,
i was contemplating buying an artemis.
i was wondering what the difference between the T-Mobile MDA Compact III and the O2 XDA Orbit is?
i hav read that t-mobile does not support wifi on its model, in addition to that, are there any other differences.
i read that there is an SD card issue with the O2 orbit, i guess that applies to the compact III too?
any idea when WM6 for artemis will be out, will t-mobile,o2 provide it as a flash update? or will we have to get it from HTC.
i saw WM6 for hermes on this site, i guess that cant be used on the artemis?
Apart from the T-Mobile not having the WiFi hardware within the unit the other differences are minimal, the O2 offering has a darker coloured outer shell and has more rounded corners - otherwise its the same. To be honest I do not miss the WiFi on the T-Mobile unit due to the GPRS internet access with the web-n-walk package.
I have had no issues mith scrambled memory cards on either my HTC P3300 or T-Mobile unit, so I cannot comment on this.
Don't ever try putting any ROM on a device that it wasn't intended for, if you do this your nice new phone will turn instantly into a very costly wedge to keep your door open - a brick - Wait unit the official ROM becomes available before trying WM6 on the unit - Mike
thanks for the reply,
so there is no EDGE or 3G on the Cmpact III
you think there is going to be an official WM6 from t-mobile?
Edge Yes, 3G no, WM6 from T-Mobile who knows - it might happen but don't hold your breath - Mike
thanks for the response dude
seen screen shots of WM6, that would be real cool.
I use WM6 on the Exec and the Mini-S (thanks to this forum), its great but not that different to be honest compared to WM2005, when/ if WM6 becomes available I will switch the newer units to the newer OS but I certainly won't loose sleep over the issue - Mike

Here in the Netherlands WM6 for T-Mobile users will be availible at the end of july.
Btw, the Dutch version of the MDA Compact III does have Wifi. Guess we Dutch are just lucky.
Check the serveral Topics about WM& on this Forum, different Carriers have announced the possibility of them publishing official ROM Upgrades to WM6, including t-mobile and O2.
thanks for the replies dudes
I have a T-Mobile MDA Compact III and i want to upgrade to the Fujitsu-Siemens Pocket LOOX N560.
My question is, the Fujitsu N560 comes in WM5, is it worth waiting till the phone is releases with WM6?
thanks
G'Day have been using a Blackberry for the past 2 years but in changing jobs I have handed back the BB and just bought myself a DOPOD P800W off eBay. Prior to the BB I was using an i-Mate PDA2k EVDO and before that an O2 XDAII.
As I wait patiently for delivery of the DOPOD unit I wanted to confirm a few things.
1. Am I correct in assuming it is the same unit as the Artemis?
2. It is running WM6.0. Will I need to run a patch to access >2gb memory cards?
3. As my purchased applications are for WM3 I presume I'll need to upgrade them for them to run on WM6.0?
4. Anything else I need to be aware off in regard to this PPC/Phone?
Thanks.
Ed
Thanks for your help.
