Please tell us your country, so that we can figure out which model (32A or 32B) the device is. 32A has 2.1 with Sense UI, while 32B has 2.2.1 without SenseUI.

Power it off and then hold down Volume Down and press Power. Write down what it says (the first 5-6 rows).

There are some small differences in hardware, like the 32B has less RAM. Also, SenseUI ROMs generally run on the 32A.

It's like the one I have, should be fine if it doesn't have any problems. You can install either Android 2.1 with SenseUI (very pretty!) or 2.2.1 without SenseUI (a lot faster).

Enjoy your new phone!

Personally I'd say save up and get something better, Magic is really old hardware, it's had a good run but considering it will be far too slow to run Android 3.0, it isn't with it imo.
