      Why no flash again.. all these nice devices by HTC and poor battery life. HTC designers, get proper camera in your phones and get ride of fiddly photo software.

            hope they don't give this one also the title of "iphone killer"
            iphone was killed long back with so many devices... hope the battery back up is optimum unlike the diamond's failure !!

              I am very curious about the display size... Looks like a reasonably sized LCD at last!

                  uuffh, sharp edges.
                  like a phone that there isn't a chance of impaling yourself on

                        HTC... Sure, a leader of innovation. Giving the latest trends for their device. HD, 3D, TouchFLO, WiMax Enabled. And TouchFLO 3D, is the most amazing UI I've ever seen

                              i think as far as innovation, its not doing excellent. It still looks like a Diamond minus the d-pad. Still a nice phone though!

                                    I was waiting to see a Diamond without the extra keys. Simply love the front. The back is disappointing though. cheers!
