A1 to launch the Magic in May

When it comes to the countries that are reported to get the second mobile phone powered by Google's Android operating system, the HTC Magic, the list goes on with Spain, which already has it available for purchase online, the UK, which will get it on May 5, France, where the handset should land on May 6, Italy, with TIM releasing the phone in May as well, and now Austria, as the mobile users in the country are reported to also be able to feel the Magic in their hands at the beginning of the next month.

The second mobile phone in the world to sport the Android platform has been spotted listed on sale on the A1.net shop, and it has been suggested that it could land in the area at the same time as on the rest of the European markets stated above, yet it seems that there are no details on the wireless carrier's page that would point towards such an early launch.

What mobile phone users can do is sign up for an email notification on the availability of the phone, which might not be the happiest choice when it comes to learning fast what happened or is about to. Either way, the one thing that seems to be certain is that Android is heading towards Austria packed inside the HTC Magic.

And we must add that there are a lot of features that the phone will deliver to users, including a 3.2-inch TFT-LCD flat touch-sensitive screen that can provide a 320x480 pixel HVGA resolution, Bluetooth 2.0 with EDR, Wi-Fi IEEE 802.11 b/g capabilities, HTC ExtUSB (11-pin mini-USB 2.0 and audio jack in one), a 3.2-megapixel photo snapper with auto focus, media player, a microSD memory card slot, as well as support for a wide range of applications that are meant to leverage the mobile user experience.
