A Vodafone exclusive - the HTC Magic

Why the hype ? Well, it's the first smartphone to operate on the new Android platform that's linux based and is part of an open-source initiative that has thousands of developers working on different applications that an Android phone can use. Google have tweaked this technology and have come up with a handset that will directly challenge the windows based smartphones from Microsoft and the iPhone from Apple - In other words, it's War !

The Magic looks familiar as it is made by HTC and has a large 3.2" touchscreen display, a 3.2 megapixel camera, 3G, WiFi, aGPS and expandable memory - all familiar stuff to the techies then.

The Android system is "finger friendly" so you can simply drag - drop etc as you would with your laptop. The Dream has one touch access to Google search and other Google applications such as Google Mail, YouTube, Google Talk instant messaging and Google Maps and Google Street View - All cool stuff indeed !

The HTC Magic - The world at your fingertips wherever you are.
