why thank you, aren’t you charming. Sigh… i used a touch phone with stylus for 1,5 years, and I found that when your phone is your agenda, phone, and portable internet for corporate email and private, a phone with touchtechnology like the Iphone a.o. is a blessing. Stylusses are a hazzard, as are non responsive screens and therefore very frustrating. I don’t know your age, but believe me.. screen responsiveness Matters for work and for daily life! Any reasonable person would concur

the funny thing is it’s really not HTC’s fault, they did the best they could
it’s windows mobile the most horrid unusable O.S ever
touchflo is just lipstick on a pig !

“Bullshit…. I mean, they cut off the 1 million who said yes to the HTC :P

haha, in the bloopers. my friend has one of those htcs and he tried showing me lyberith and his phone froze. i did my best not to laugh… so i just pulled out my iphone 3g and asked nicely if it is like this one, and mine pulled up fast with out any freezing. to be honest, i havent seen that phone sense, and he WAS so proud of it lol.

i have the htc touch pro for sprint and i must say that it blows the iphone out of the water. it has a much higher resolution than the iphone, better camera, etc. one thing that i do like about the iphone better than the htc touch pro is that the glass screen for the iphone is a little more responsive because it senses the heat from your finger and the htc senses pressure on the screen. but really it just depends on user s oppinion.

There just phones, in the end Iphone is a fashion statement, HTC diamond is for people who actually need a smartphone for business purposes. Iphone is not a smartphone.

It’s the fact that not many have used a HTC PDA before, and not many have actually even heard about HTC.

The fact that most offices has apple computers for work stations gives them the idea that the apple iphone will be as good as apple’s actual computers, but the fact is that it’s not meant for a hard buisness day, it’s meant for an ordenary phone with more user customizabilities.

I say they’d chosen the HTC if they had had more time with it, like over a weekend or so.

i was undecided between the new HTC and the iphone, i’ve decided i’m going to buy the iphone, for a few reasons, the iphone software is much better and there’s a new version of it coming out in the summer which is a great improvement, there’s an apple store where you can buy programs directly from the phone instead of having to download programs for the windows mobile on your pc, the iphone is also faster and more fluid, in the HTC you have to press a few times to get it to do what you want.

yes definatly i have the htc touch diamond, most people go for iphone because big screen and the lame stupid application’s eg beer and popcorn app’s well guess what the htc touch diamond has the beer app plus htc touch diamond has copy and paste and it can use bluetooth properly and you can hand write on it, can you do that on the iphone.

1stAdeguy @ 10:13 am #

the phone isn’t faster its just that the touchflo3d interface has slowed it down because it wasn’t optimized, if you take that off it will be like 5x faster.

I have the iPhone 3g and my girlfriend has the diamond and she agreed iPhone was better however I do wish iPhone had more customize options

Actually the coolest feature I’ve seen with the htc touch diamond, is the wireless modem ability.

Basically, you first connect to it through bluetooth. Then you put it somewhere in your house/apartment with a good connection to the internet, and then you set it up on your laptop/computer to use it as a modem.

Bam, internet everywhere you go, as long as the phone’s got connection.

It does a decent 700/320Kbit because the bluetooth connection’s pretty slow. doing it through cable does +3mbit :)

FYI DVAFP, if you jailbreak your iphone, you can install something which i won’t say here, and you get all the apps off the apple shop for free.

Also if you have to do it multiple times you’re obviously doing something wrong, plus with some files you can download it and install it directly on the phone just like you can with any other phone. Hell my viewty does that.

:D
And, typically, Apple has copied that. iPhone = Touch clone.

Brainwashed marketing . Until you spend time with both devices then you can make a valid opinion.

was always available on the normal iphone, the iphone 3gs now supports tethering which is also the same concept..
