Today i got my new HTC Diamond

I was waiting for this device long time...and was hopping it will be Iphone killer.
After some hours of playing...

3D flow looks nice..but is very slow
First thing i have done is disabling the interface and installing SPB Mobile Shell


<b>PRO</b>
Size
Screen

<b>CON</b>
Slow
Slow
Slow
No memory card slot
short and sharp stylus uncomfortable..
None flat backside because of the diamond shape this makes the usage uncomfortable on the desk.
Iphone clone (no own innovation)
available memory is less than on the TyTn II

After few days playing and tweaking HTC Diamond is performing better then the Tytn II

For now i'm happy with this device.

For the everybody who own the Tytn II the size of the Diamond is a bit smaller the the keyboard part of the TyTn II

its really easy when you compare phones to a iphone.. the iphone is running on linux, is fast and all the animations are smooth.. something i rarely see on a windows versioned phone. Dont forget i had the tytn II aswell but the iphone quickly (click click click, ow yes i'am convinced) replaced it. Having umts or gps is in my eyes still 'nice to have' same with a camera.. if you got the money get a descent one in your car, works better faster and its integrated (no suction marks on the window) and umts, its only nice if you want to really do something with it. But for mail (rarerly browse) internet and stuff its fine enough to have gprs..
