i-mate was a company selling Windows Mobile-powered devices. The Group was launched by rambunctious Glaswegian Jim Morrison, who began his telecoms career at sea with Cable & Wireless and was later involved in the team at O2 that designed the first O2 Xda Pocket PC phone. He subsequently obtained rights to HTC products outside of O2 territories and setup i-mate in Glasgow, Scotland to deliver into the market place. It was based in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, and operated in the UK, Italy, Armenia, Australia, India, the U.S.A and South Africa.
