Sliding off the outer cardboard reveals a solid black box with a silver HTC emblem on the top. The black boxing is secured by a magnetic flap, upon which if flipped, would reveal a sexy naked being...
To those who are familiar with Tytn II, you may find the home screen (Today) shown above is not of the HTC Home plugin. The latest machines still do come installed with HTC Home, just that I've switched it to SPB Mobile Shell v2.1. It works wonders, more on it later.
For RM2400, the Tytn II came with a 4Gb microSD, a cool HTC pouch, and all the basic stuffs. The package also entitled me to have a Jabra bluetooth handsfree headset for free:
Since I have an iTech iClip bluetooth headset which could connect two phones simultaneously, I'm willing to let this macho-looking Jabra off to the highest bidder. So to those who are in need of serious machoism, move yer lazy arses and start bidding now! Price starts from RM70.
As with any of my previous gadgets, I'm quite anal about protection. Evidence, scroll up and look at my 3-year old Clie TH55. Instead of using the HTC pouch, which is just a belt clip, I bought a Dr. Ion pouch from Kinokuniya KLCC, which can be secured by a belt.
Installing SPB Mobile Shell and SPB Phone Suite turned the already strong Tytn to near invincible. Total invincibility would mean to slash the thickness to quarter its current thickness. The SPB Diary, SPB Insight, and SPB Backup are the other softwares from SPB that I'm also using in tandem with Mobile Shell. The SPB Diary enhances the PPC's PIM a lot, it doesn't matter anymore how strong Palm's PIM is.
It comes preloaded with MalSing map, which covers West + East Malaysia and Singapore. It is gonna be handy come December during my trip to Singapore!
Here are some pictures taken by the Tytn II's 3.0MP camera:
This shot was taken during one of my weekend calls, when I had to be a hero and follow the ambulance to Kg. Medan where a mother gave birth to a baby at home, with the umbilical cord still intact. The hero slashed the hardened umbilical cord, and saved the mother from impending death. Yes, it occured in a construction site. And the mother was hidden deep inside a second-floor cave.
A caricature of my uncle and his soon-to-be bride on their wedding card. The BMW GS1100 Adventure does exist, I wonder if they're gonna use that for their wedding vehicle. Coolness if they do! I can follow them with my Orange Beast, LOL!
You can offer your diagnosis if you like.
In conclusion, Tytn II rocks!
