In a surprise announcement, Vodafone Spain is set to launch Magic, HTC’s 2nd Android handset, in just a few hours. The countdown timer appeared early this morning with local sales set to begin at 1700 hours. That gives Vodafone Spain subscribers an 8 day head start on the rest of the world — an eternity for Android nerds. Unfortunately, while it’s free with applicable contract on Vodafone UK, it’s gonna cost you in Spain — rates our Spanish friends describe as “outrageous.” Let’s see if our Canadian friends agree.
