So I was at Pda Arena Sunway today to checkout the Touch HD. Was considering switching my Touch Pro with the HD since the latter has a bigger screen. To my disappointment, the HD suffered from the same problem I had with my second Diamond. My first Diamond had an awesome screen but the USB port malfunctioned later on. Anyway, the color looked washed out when compared to my current Touch Pro. It’s very obvious when viewing from the side angle. The Touch Pro has better contrast and sharpness. Guess I’ll skip the HD for now…sigh

If you upgrade from Omnia of course lah looks better. Got to agree the HD form factor is nice but the color is a turn off for me. Pocketnow.com did a comparison between the two. Pay attention to 0.59 in the video link below

Hey it's a forum and I'm just sharing my point of view. If you're an HD owner and you feel that I'm bashing the HD then I'm sorry. I've gone through the touch dual, two touch diamonds and currently the TP. I desire for the HD and very well can afford it but what's stopping me is the screen. Please refer to the pics below. In the first pic below, the top diamond has that yellowish tint and the icons colors become washed out when viewed from the angle I took the pics whereas the bottom Diamond still had that sharp and crips display of colors. The HD I played with had a display just like the first Diamond. It's not noticeable if the screen is facing you.
