Hi There...Does anyone know how to switch on the touch flo??
As my Htc diamond doesn't have any Touch flo graphics on the phone...
Many2 thx
im a user of only i-mate and htc and touch phones and this is realy simply the best mobile i'v ever seen..
arjen, 21 Jul 2008Does anyone know if the HTC Touch Diamond works well with Apples iCal and addressbook and mail... morenot sure... Im also a mac user and i now using the Diamond... and i can tell u that my mac does recognize my phone when i plug it!!!
so i guess u cant do anything concerning syncin'...
This device rocks! Soooo much better than the iPhone. iPhone hype is making people make a bad decision with there purchases. The iPhone is limited in many features compared to the Diamond! The Diamond is a winner for me. Best phone in a long time. I have used both!
just bought this fone here in taiwan. and trust me when i say "this is the best mobile phone screen display i've ever seen". my eyes are so relaxed when i'm using it. such a beauty.

My opinion on Touch Diamond, purely personal of course:
The good:
+ ideal proportins and weight
+ excellent stylus implementation
+ Touch FLO
+ good camera
+ GPS, Wifi
+ rich feature pack
+ MS Office docs editor
The bad:
- weak battery
- poor design (fingerprint magnet)
- poor music player (no 3.5mm jack, can't use quality headphones)
- paint starts to wear off quickly (on the back panel)
- no memory card slot
- no trackball
I have been reading this site for ages whilst considering buying a Diamond. (I did the same for my HTC TyTn II). It is available as an upgrade from Vodafone in the UK. I'm an every day business user - not a tech kind of guy. I was very nearly put off by all the comments on here - so many negatives but I decided to give it a punt.
At first I hated the phone, took a few hours to get used to but later in the day, the phone, it's functions and how to use became second nature and it is the best phone I have ever used, by a country mile. I would imagine that someone who has never used Windows Mobile might struggle with it for a bit longer.
I love the look and feel of the device, the software and the lack of the keyboard that i enjoyed with the TyTn II. OK, touchflo is a tad slow but it adds to the smoothness of it, a very nice way to work generally. Data imput by on screen full qwerty is great even using fingers and not the stylus.
The only real disapointment is the battery however I went into this eyes open know that would be an issue so how can one complain about it? I understand there is an extended battery which will increase the depth of the device, so I will be looking at buying one.
As an everyday business user that wants a very smart device and easy connectivity to exchange server, this is a great great device!

Does anyone know if the HTC Touch Diamond works well with Apples iCal and addressbook and mail (I am a mac user)?
Thanks!

see the phone i found it very sloa on the vodafone network but it looked beauitful . it has a better screen than the i phone and camera but its has the same problem as the i phone no flash im waiting for the touch pro duee septmber save your money for that. it will have a flash a keyboard and a roo for a sd card.
Hg, 20 Jul 2008I got the phone a few days back. The screen looks excellent. Touchscreen works flawlessly usin... moreyes, go to the forum to get the available rom and it's donload link..
and go to
http://modmydiamond.info/ to get the instruction..
this handy is the best ( after 3 days using it)
what is good
+the best screen resolution ever seen (better than the iphone) I owe both !
+You tube has a super quality better than the one iphone has
+TomTom7 and Navigon both are working super !
+Google earth is so good
+Video resolution can not compare it with any other handy (Super quality)
what is negative
+ bad battery life (but not that bad as some wrote before)
+ a little bit slow
+sound is not so loud (ringtones or video) but with the headset is awsome quality

Finally i want to say that i love this handy and i am not getting sad selling my iphone because of it (The best handy i ever had)
I got the phone a few days back. The screen looks excellent. Touchscreen works flawlessly using only my thumb. It's eye-candy + functionality in a WM6.1 device. I got no complaints yet.
