noob Question: Ion VS HTC Magic rom

---

With the death of my G1...I decided to move on to Sapphire...

However, I don't have a phone to test my skills on anymore..and like many others...I'm abit afraid to hack on a new phone...

I got myself a google Ion...however I have been wondering the difference between Magic as well...Can anyone comment on this?

Also, has anyone been able to port over the exchange server function that HTC Magic has to ION?

Thanks for the help out (still confused with reading all over the place)

Eh, "ION" *IS* an HTC Magic.

The ION is a HTC Magic with google stuff and 288mb ram instead of the Vodafone Magic's 192mb.

No the Ion is the Magic with 192MB of RAM.

Yes I understand the fact that the ION is HTC Magic but with engineer bootloader and spl..

However the version sold as HTC Magic rather than Google Ion has different Rom.

Other than the fact that the Rom alone is vanilla or basic rom with google stuff on it...what is the difference from the HTC Magic Rom? (Other than Exchange function and a list of local APN)

as mentioned many times on these forums,

the HTC Magic is HTC made so it has support and a few other software changes like the framework and kernal i believe.
