Just wished this phone came with a VGA screen, that's its main weakness. I don't know about the 624MHz Marvell PXA312 processor in regards to graphics acceleration. But its a step in the right direction. Well done. The other 3 models I am looking at with VGA with great specs is the Gigabyte MS808 and the ETEN dx900 & x900.

    Hello, can you clarify if this device will be UMTS 850?

    I've seen places where it says that it will, but on others they only state it will be UMTS 2100.

    Thanks!

        Great Spec,but not perfect.If only they would improve the interface or just the graphics on the Today screen.The cartoon style home screen really belittle the sophistication of the handset.HTC does an amzing job dressing up the Diamond, right down to the design of the charger.The 900i looks sleek and clean until you turn it on.Too bad Samsung-for a Goliath corporation, David at HTC seems to have you beaten.

              Number of colour doesn't mean anything for me. My CDMA phone Samsung S259 with 65k colour is more brightness and colourful than my N95 8Gb with 16M colour. The quality of LCD is more important.

                      sounds like a glorified palm pilot with better internet access. Oh, and no iTunes compatibility. Ah well, can't fault them for trying.

                                    It seems to be selling in china for a mere $500, if the news has to believe. They claim to have xenon flash along with a led one for video recording in poor light.
