Vario II Goes WinMob 6
Blog A quick heads-up for anyone who, like me, uses a T-Mobile Vario II (aka HTC Hermes). T-mob has finally gotten round to issuing a Windows Mobile 6 update for the handset, which can be found here. I've run it and everything seems to be fine.

Excellent Kit
Member Review I've had my TyTN, masquerading as T-Mobile's Vario II, for just over 2 months now, and I have to say its one of the best devices I've ever used. Portable, powerful, and extremely usable, if you're after a smartphone, then look no further.

Windows Mobile OS
Forum I upgraded my T-Mobile Vario II (the TyTn by any other name) from WInMob 5 to 6, partly because it was supposed to make the power efficiency better. Well you'll probably need to get the update via the original operator, unless it's unlocked in...

Nokia E71 Vs HTC Touch Diamond
Blog My most recent WinMob handset was the T-Mobile MDA Vario II. The E71 is sitting on my desk in front of me - I actually enjoy looking at it, which I can't say for my old Vario II - and I can't recommend it enough.

How Dare They?
Blog That's happened with T-Mobile's MDA Vario II handheld/smartphone, a.k.a the HTC TyTN. You can tell when a review product has made a good impression. After a while, you start hoping that the vendor or the PR has forgotten about it.
