Hi you all,

Considering buying a HTC Magic, but have noticed there are three 'flavours' of the Android platform. They provide different options i.e. preloading gmail, access to the marketplace etc.

I would like to know what limitations I would have with the HTC Magic from Vodafone NZ? Would I be able to download firmware updates online to enable the Sense UI? Would I have free rein over what I can remove or install on the phone? Would I be able to hack the phone to hearts content, and reset the firmware if I mess it up?

Cheers,

Mister Harbies
