Android based HTC Magic comes to Asia

I’ve read an article about the HTC Magic due to arrive in Asia over at Cnet. It looks like the HTC Magic which runs on the open mobile platform called Android will be available in Singapore this coming June at around 700+ USD without a contract.

What’s exciting about the Asian version of the HTC Magic is that it won’t be exclusive to any of the Asian telcos in the region. And, get this, it’s going to have support for Microsoft Exchange. In fact Damian Koh over at Cnet Asia was able to sync it with Microsoft Outlook without any hassle.

From the looks of it the Asian version of HTC Magic will come bundled with a meager 2GB microSD. It will be available in two colors — Black with Maroon stripe and White with Silver. After Singapore, the HTC Magic mobile phone will then be made available in Hong Kong the week after. Then to Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia, the Philippines and Vietnam by end of Q2.
