It’s more than a month since Vodafone, the famous mobile network operator, announced the introduction of the new HTC Magic, a device that it was said to be an Android-based cell phone. Back then, the information about the availability, meaning the precise release date, wasn’t unveiled.

Well, we have a piece of fresh news for you as far as the handset is concerned. It seems that Vodafone UK decided to launch the HTC Magic in the near future. To be more precise, the phone is said to hit the market starting May 1st.



If you don’t remember what the Magic will bring, let me refresh your memory: a 3.2 inches QVGA screen, HSDPA, GPS functionality, a 3.2 megapixel camera with no flash, unfortunately, a G1-style trackball.

Rumors say that the phone will cost you nothing (which means it can be yours and all yours for free), if you don’t have anything against signing a 2-year contract agreement. In addition, you’ll have to make up your mind for a data plan offered by Vodafone UK of at least £25 per month.



As I said before, the news refers to the UK launch, but the chances for it to start selling in other European markets, such as France, Germany, Italy and Spain, where Vodafone is available, are quite significant. Not to mention the fact that it’s possible that the Magic will also be present in the US shelves by the end of this year, via T-Mobile.
