HTC Magic To Denmark In May?

Sprinkle some salt on your frikadeller, because this is nothing more than a rumor at the moment. Although citizens of Denmark cannot yet enjoy all that is Android, that will change in a little more than a month if the claims of Mobile.nu (translation) prove true. They have a “reliable source” who says the HTC Magic will arrive in Denmark this May.
The HTC Magic is supposedly a Vodafone exclusive, so in an attempt to cross check our facts we took a peek at Vodafone’s operations (or non-operations) in Denmark:
It appears that TDC is Vodafone’s Danish partner and while they don’t currently have the HTC listed for sale, we’ll be keeping a close eye on any announcements or updates on the site. Any folks from Denmark that are eagerly excited about this launch? Or are am I going to hear crickets because you’re out perousing a Danish web source…
As our tipster so appropriately commented, “Hopefully their source is right…”

This would be too good to be true =)
I was almost buying a Dream from Amazon, just because I figured Denmark wouldn’t get an Android phone for a very long time.
The only thing that kept me from buying the G1 was that we have the letters æøå, and I would hate to see a Danish version of G1 with these keys, when I had paid a gozillion bucks for a G1 =)
So this will be a very existing few months for us =)

I am excited, but i hope the g1 (or another android phone with keyboard) will be available as well

yes, i would prefer the G1 with a keyboard anytime, but if the G1 came to Denmark, would it then get a Danish keyboard?
If not, I would rather have the Magic, where I assume a Danish keyboard can be downloaded?

I got a HTC diamond now, in full qwerty mode the soft-keyboard doesn’t show æøå, you have to do a few key-presses to make one of them, but hopefully this won’t be like that with android.

Exciting stuff. Hope this is a bit more then a rumour though.

@4: I hope you are right. Otherwise there would be a good reason for making such keyboard layout ourself ;)
