Register Review The Diamond
The register have done a very in-depth review of the Touch Diamond here. It's generally very positive, they are clearly impressed with the TouchFlo 3D thing and love the size/weight. The only real negative - and they regard it as a biggy - is the lack of MicroSD slot.
Still, a good read with some nice pics

Re: Register Review The Diamond
I've not read the review but I can hardly see how the lack of an SD slot on a phone with 4GB memory is an issue unless you intend to use it as a music/video source and it's not really designed for that....

Re: Register Review The Diamond
Exactly if one does not need to store vast amounts of music it seems to me to be an ideal device.

Re: Register Review The Diamond
HTC are marketing it as exactly that, a multimedia phone! What's the point of a multimedia phone that you can't put large amounts of multimedia on?

Re: Register Review The Diamond
I think my Diamond is a wonderful device as a communications device and 4 GB is more than enough storage for my needs.
Carrying a music, video player, camera and phone about all day can be cumbersome, so I see the need for people to have these gadgets combined into one device, but then again, when the battery goes dead you've lost all them devices.

Re: Register Review The Diamond
Agreed but with all the charging options around hopefully we can all keep our devices charged with the minimum of fuss?

Re: Register Review The Diamond
Spare batteries and power packs are a boon.

Re: Register Review The Diamond
I've moved the discussion of how much digital music everyone has and how to rip it to a thread of its own here (Digital Music Collections).
See that thread for why I'm not in the market for a Diamond.
