  • Atom V sponsored device
  • HTC Touch Diamond Launch
  • HTC Touch Pro/Vario IV Pictures and Specs
  • The Sony Ericsson Xperia X1
  • and the Samsung i900 "Omnia"

Interesting views on the Diamond, I'm trying not to jump on the "I want one" bandwaggon just because its new, but as you have both now played with the device and given positive feedback its cetainly tempting. I'll have to wait until the highstreet stores stock them before I can have a play with one and make my own mind up but certainly sounds good.

Regarding the Omnia having 16GB storage and a microSD slot, that will come in handy with GPS apps like Garmin, iGO and others that insist on selling their software locked to a card.

I personally favour this over the Diamond mainly because of the screen, it may be WQVGA but its 3.2 inches and that makes browsing and watching videos that much better.

Great to have the podcast back guys, not sure about your views on the Diamond, for me the Touch Flo UI is just not good enough, it is still way too slow and laggy even with the latest rom, also battery life, mine does not even last me a day with hsdpa and a few phone calls and push email, no way will it last 48 hours and when it warns you that it is going flat you have five minutes and boom it shuts off.

  • Interests:The details of my life are quite inconsequential... very well, where do I begin? My father was a relentlessly self-improving boulangerie owner from Belgium with low grade narcolepsy and a penchant for buggery. My mother was a fifteen year old French prostitute named Chloe with webbed feet. My father would womanize, he would drink. He would make outrageous claims like he invented the question mark. Sometimes he would accuse chestnuts of being lazy. The sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament. My childhood was typical. Summers in Rangoon, luge lessons. In the spring we'd make meat helmets. When I was insolent I was placed in a burlap bag and beaten with reeds- pretty standard really. At the age of twelve I received my first scribe. At the age of fourteen a Zoroastrian named Vilma ritualistically shaved my testicles. There really is nothing like a shorn scrotum... it's breathtaking- I highly suggest you try it.

Glad everyone is enjoying our return :D

Chris - i've read about the issues with lagginess of the TouchFlo 3D interface but I really haven't experienced anything on my Diamond that comes close to being an issue. Hopefully the new update will improve things for you!
