Iphone and Htc HD are totally different league, Paying for HD means u get something noteworthy and and amazing cutting edge device, paying for Iphone means u get, well where should i get started u get a totally restricted apple device which cant even t/f files via bluetooth, cant forward msgs etc!

        Well job guys but it seems HD is lot better then 3G and Omnia but all three of them are big in size I will go for Touch Diamond cause its easy to carry in casual use you can play sports while carrying Diamond in your pocket etc... n HD,3G and Omnia are good for normal buisness uses but it risky to carry them in your pokect while working out

            Very good news, this phone seems to be the best one at the moment. It's much less sluggish as the HTC diamond and it's not the final version of opera yet! The text is diplayed better than on the iphone and the camera is better too. Screen size is 4', bigger than the touch. It's a pity android is not released yet. I also appeciate the 3.5 jack

Although this phone does have very good specs and qualities. The screen resolution is definitely awesome. For me this is like the HTC Diamond with a bigger screen. It would have the same downside as the Diamond though, minus the upgraded screen size. Just like the Diamond, the touch UI of this one would be as sluggish, unresponsive, unintuitive and erratic. Also, if they're using the same touchscreen as the Diamond's, it would scratch very easily. Web browsing on this one would be wonderful now that it has a bigger screen than the Diamond.

                                Doesn't anyone think that there's a size limit on phones? I mean, for me the Samsung Omnia (my latest) is the largest phone I will ever have I reckon. I just think that anything thicker OR wider just isn't comfortable using with one hand or fitting into any pocket now.

                                I also have a Palm TX which is very similar in size to the iPhone, but I'd again not be cool taking that around in my pocket at that size. When you add in a case (I've got a metal one for that) for any large touch screen device to offer protection, it just becomes not pocketable.

                                I do find it incredibly interesting though that now all of a sudden everyone's fine with having a phone that you can't really use with just one hand and doesn't fit so comfortably into a pocket.

                                      Having a keyboard under a 3.8 inch screen does not make allot of sense to me it would make it a bit too bulky, but well anything is possible, Glad i didn go for the touch pro i 'ed be killin my self after sein this ! lol
