Dear Ken,

Are you an idiot? This is a news website where old articles and information remain cataloged. If you find an owner of a website who goes into their archives and deletes everything older than 1 month, please introduce me to them. I would like to congratulate them for being the only person on the planet that is dumber than you.

Your welcome,
Rob Jackson

Why is this article still here? The Kogan Android phone has turned to vapour. Remove the post and stop leading people on.

I was originally going to buy this phone but without the 3.5 headphones its a total no starter unfortunately as I was seriously looking forward to getting this phone to replace my current one.

Is this for real? I mean. the phone’s ‘desktop’ is the same as the G1. Or is that the standard GUI of Android? I’d like to see Different GUI with each new Android phone because after that what else is there to develop? Yeah, hardware and making it look cool, but that means that ever Android phone will be the same experience.

I’m an Aussie – and I’ve found Kogan’s products to be of pretty good quality. What usually lets them down is the software – so maybe they’re on to something with putting Android on board? :)

I would also happily review it on an AU network!

Hmm… wouldn’t the Kogan Agora be Android #3 after the QiGi i6?

@szel: Kogan’s webpage has a link for international orders.

@Alex: Agreed. I’m disappointed that the Android SDK 1.0 only explicitly supports QVGA and HVGA. Frankly i’m still a bit envious of the screens on the VGA and WVGA WinMo handsets.

@thekidslepthere: It’s quad-band GSM, so atleast that will work everywhere. As for the UMTS radio, it’s 850/1900/2100, so unless the spec sheet is wrong, no Tmo 3G (Tmo is on AWS frequency, 1700/2100). How updates work will depend on Kogan, but it will definitely not use Tmo updates.

So would this work in the USA?
What carriers might it work on?
Would it be able to receive updates to android if not on T-Mobile?

Interesting note about the meaning of the name!

QVGA? Not impressive at all

Would like to see a review of this phone. I have yet to see a real G1 in person, but the non-functioning demo in the T-Mobile store did not leave me hopeful.

Hi,
Does anybody know if there’s a way to get this phone to other country than Australia?
