The HTC Magic, the world’s second Android handset, will be landing down under on Vodafone and 3 Mobile. They’re branding it as “With Google”, so odds are you Aussies won’t be enjoying the Exchange support and other customized goodness that us Canadians have on our recently-launched Magic. Australia would have been home to some very early Android hardware had local manufacturer Kogan actually followed-through with their plans to launch the Agora and Agora Pro, but alas, those plans had long-since been shelved.For those in the U.S hankering for the Magic, word has it T-Mobile will be offering it as soon as the end of the month.
