[talkbackdroid]

You've seen the preliminary video, you've read the specs; now it's time for the motherload of HTC Magic information.* We sat down with HTC's digital communications manager, Eric Lin, to talk Android, Vodafone and all things Magic.

Ok, now what about the REAL stuff: usable Bluetooth, real document support, real POP3 support, speed dialer, apps integration... you know, all the stuff REAL smartphones have? The hardware itself is just not that interesting.

Wow, still no flash or 3.5mm jack... HTC just doesn't get it, do they...

Sorry to disappoint on the Flash issue. Don't blame HTC on this one. It will not get released until 2010. Yup, that's right. However, if and when it gets released it will be full PC quality Flash not some watered down mobile Flash. Oh, and the iPhone will still be out in the cold, no Flash for them for some time. Guess we all have to wait until it gets here in due time.

No, I meant a camera flash... Sorry, I would have noted Adobe and capitalized the F... I'm not that big of a jackass...

No screenshot of the firmware version page?! Curious if this is 1.5...
