Wait...http://www.htc.com/www/product.aspx?id=49518 Touch Pro announced....sorry for spoiling the fun...but oh well, Baronic's gonna get the TP later on anyways

well, press release says availability is summer this year..but you know la...august is a safe bet....
diamond is real slim and neat....

if the rumors of the 8gb and 16gb diamond are true, then syiok la...think for me batt shud be ok, since i dont game and after sometime wont play with it a lot...do keep us updated tomorrow...

baronic, games run well?

alright..thanks man.
tomorrow will go searching around penang to see if i can find one...

is the shop owned by yeap?
well depends la..if u cant wait, take the plunge...but personally i think just wait a few weeks first, lets get reviews from other users, see if there are any problems...besides, few weeks down the road, maybe you might get a better offer?

i heard that if ur diamond is in standby mode...and a sms comes in, it wont vibrate/ring but the scroll wheel would flash...some users say they hv this prob, some say their's dont hv it. also, some sites are reporting that the diamonds have been held back due to software fix..so i would rather wait....

ok will see if i hv time to go and play with it...

its good tht ur taking your time...some reviewers just give an estimate, or make a statement very often usually.

touch pro sure better, but too thick la bro...after seeing the diamond, dont want the touch pro de...

yea, i used to think the same...if its slightly thicker, who cares..can do loads more..but after sometime...i think i am back liking slim devices its just so nice to hold them in your hands....

wm7? dun think abt it now...because when wm7 is out, htc will be out with a brand new smokin device, so start saving up now

thanks baronic for the updates, glad tht the games run well, hv never gamed on a mobile device, call of duty is one of my fav pc games...so will give it a try someday...

i heard there's a diamond booth at lowyat plaza...there are lots of units there...so all u guys dont have to go hunting high and low anymore....btw, hows the camera performance? i saw some pics from a hofo member, he took his back cover lens cover off and its amazing...

would hv...i like the os better..
but there's the 2mp camera
no front facing video camera...

but its gonna be real cheap...and if i choose vodafone...i might try it..after all
if i dont like it for 14days, then i can return it

Some nice things about the Touch Diamond taken from pocketnow.com :


# You know how when you call someone, you have to hold the phone up to your ear and listen to it ring and ring and ring and wait until they pick up? The Touch Diamond has an awesome little feature where instead of doing that, you dial the call and just hold the device in your hand. When the person you’re calling answers, you feel a little vibration. Then you can hold the phone to your ear and start talking right away. Absolutely genius!

# Finding that mute button when an incoming call happens at the wrong time can be pretty difficult and annoying depending on what you’re being interrupted of. The Touch Diamond has implemented a great feature where you can just flip the phone over and place it face down in order to ignore and silence an incoming call. You don’t have to look at it, you don’t have to feel for some button on the phone. Just flip it over! (If you leave it flipped over, incoming calls will still sound, so just flip it up and down to silence it in that case) Throwing it across the room may also work, but I haven’t tried it.

# The stylus is held in by a magnet and snaps into place. Not only that, but when you remove the stylus, the Touch Diamond wakes itself up from Standby mode and becomes instantly ready for you to interact with.

# The Touch Diamond finally brought back the ambient light sensor. Back in 2000, if you had an iPAQ H3600 (also made by HTC), you remember how it would change the screen brightness depending on how bright your environment was. The Touch Diamond brings this great feature back, and makes for a nicely usable screen even in outdoors sunlight.

# There are little LED lights inside the circular part of the action button. They’ll glow and flicker in different patterns to indicate different status states. A slow glow from top to bottom indicates a charging status, while a rapid flicker indicates an alert or announcement.

# UPDATE: Touch sensitive hardware buttons. When you touch the action button with your finger while using the camera, this will activate auto-focus. Then you press the button all the way to take a picture. (Thanks Action Jackson) Also rubbing the circular area around the action button in a clockwise or counterclockwise motion will zoom in or zoom out in the Photo Album and Opera browser. It will also change the text font sizes in email messages and text messages.

guys,

wanna ask..i asked my dad's friend who will be going to taiwan to get me a TD. I suppose it will be cheaper there..how about warranty issues? should i be worried? also, can i register my td if i bought it from taiwan and get regular rom updates? thanks

aiyayai...ok then maybe will try to call him and cancel...

so i went to gurney plaza in penang yesterday..wanted to buy the TD. Played with it..but it was ok..i guess i watched too many video reviews till it was nothing special...yesterdays promo was 2799 + pouch + 3 yrs warranty + in-car charger...

lucky din buy..today i saw mobilesquare (spore) selling at 958 sgd which is 2200+...who cares bout the warranty..spore aint too far and i hv ppl coming/going often..

actually din buy it coz the touchflo3d was not smooth...

i am not sure what pouch it was, did not ask, but i highly doubt its made by htc....

you can try missing sync to sync with your mac...

i think u can get the touch dual used...new is 2200...btw, i heard new rom's much snappy..baronic..any diff? also, someone mentioned that if u use a 3.5mm coverter u can use regular headphones to listen to your fm radio

ermm..start with google?

well, try searching google for the software you ones..e.g. skype..search skype for windows mobile and download the installer...it would come in either .exe or .cab file...if its a .cab file, transfer it to your phone (bluetooth or activesync) and install it from there - you can install from activesync if you have it on your computer...or..you can transfer the .cab to your TD's 4gb...(use the provided cable and choose disk drive from the menu once its connected) then run the .cab from there....


quite unlikely..first, it would take ages for it to reach malaysia..maybe year end la...even if it say comes out in spore..you would need to give 'them' time to find an unlock solution. anyways, i doubt you can walk out of the store without activating your phone and if you dont or terminate your line, you pay huge money...
