G2 surfaces as HTC Magic, exclusive to Vodafone

[living_sword]

G2 rumors may now be put to rest as HTC Magic has appeared in the wild. BGR has a byte on Magic which will be exclusive to Vodafone.

It doesn't have killer looks but does the job of taking attention off G1. No specs available yet but regular features like HSPA, WiFi, GPS, 3.2 MP camera and Cupcake are expected to make it.

The release date is not yet known, but until then you can ogle at some angles below,

UPDATE: Sources have said that the announcement will probably be tomorrow.

I hope this becomes an android dev phone(ADP2 maybe?)....and I wonder how long it will take to root this...

They will not let go of making a separate port for headphones will they

[blkg1]

Haha ain't that the truth. How hard is it to add a headphone jack? I mean there can't be any lawsuites or breech of contract like multitouch. Oh well. Any word if this has a keyboard or am I blind?

will be nice to see what voda uk offer on data packages coz they are nothing compared to t-mob uk offers.

Also where's the popping keyboard :-(
I don't care what anyone says I love my keyboard.

Yeah there's no physical keyboard on this model. Android will come with the virtual keyboard on this phone.
