MDA now officially, really, actually available from T-Mobile (Engadget)

Feb 21st 2006 6:38PM I purchase an SDA on Monday the 13th and used it for a week. Today I decided to exchange it and upgrade to the MDA. They are both great phones and very unique. I loved the size of the SDA and the screen is beautiful. The media player buttons were nice and I actually favored having the miniSD card tucked under the battery. I'm using a 1and1 exchange email account and I can sync all my exchange data over wifi without connecting to a pc. I decided to switch to the MDA because I didn't find the SDA to be very easy to dial with one hand. The buttons are very close to the bottom of the screen and are not very tactile. You basically have to use both and and watch as you dial. I decided to purchas a bluetooth headset which I love and both phones have voice tag dialing so I don't have to use the keypad for most calls now anyway. Overall, the touchscreen and full keyboard make the MDA easier for me to use. If you want a sweet Pocket PC phone with WiFi and dont' want to pay the extra $50/month for a data package. the MDA is totally the way to go.

Jan 27th 2006 1:46PM Aren't we forgetting to factor in all the lame users who purchased a core and never had the dough to buy the hard drive but are still connected to live? Seems like that might knock off another 100k maybe.
