Buying a used TyTn II (Kaiser, not Tilt), anything to check for?

[trenwei]

Hey guys, I'll be buying a used Kaiser sometime this week, is there anything in particular I should be checking to see if it works?

Just want to be sure not to get a fake (if its possible)/ defective unit.

Thanks

I've yet to see a phony Kaiser so if it's new, you should be good to go. If it's used, check everything like the sound, camera, sliding mechanism, etc.

If it's used, check everything like the sound, camera, sliding mechanism, etc.As well as the USB port functionality both for charging and with Activesync (but then 'everthing' as mentioned, includes this). I saw someone recently who bought one secondhand and the USB port was faulty. My advise to the o/p is it's risky business unless you really know what you're looking for.

Make sure the lint roller still has sticky tape on it.

If you don't mind the device being branded I would go for the T-Mobile MDA Vario III (kais130). The Dpad is sturdier and I find it look better in silver. The letters T-mobile and MDA peel off very easy, that's if you want them away. Slightly scratch them away with a scalpel or other extreme sharp knife, leaving no marks at all. I did it and posted pics somewhere... here (http://i29.tinypic.com/j9wufa.jpg)


Hey Chumley, what exactly do you mean with:

Make sure the lint roller still has sticky tape on it.???
