i dont see how its a wanna-be-iphone. if it were, HTC could have just used the same design and specs

then its a wanna be.
i see no similarities besides full touch screen

even though touchscreen has been around for much longer, but any wayyyyyyyy
do people think every high end phone produced these days is made to go against the iphone? i dont think so, iphone or not, this phone would have still been developed imo

Hi all,
For those of you interested in this device their are some really good pictures of it over at CNET the link is here
http://crave.cnet.co.uk/mobiles/0,39029453,49296808,00.htm
It shows a lot of what the apps look like including what the new Opera 9.5 browser it uses is like to.
I must say the more i have read and seen of this device the more impressed i have been. What i find most interesting is just how fast it will be launched from announcement which is a lesson other manufacturers could certainly learn form. Also the fact that it will be available from all the UK Networks in June is impressive to.
Marc

@Marc
That link redirects me to my yahoo mail account. Is that by chance a link to an email for yours?
Regarding the fast launch date, I think its more of a case of late announcement rather than an early launch. Design of the device began in November 2006. Thats about 1 and a half years ago, which is the usualy lead time for development of a new phone.

Diamond is definitely amazing. If Paris doesn't pan out, this is my next device. Though I'll need one of those Seido batteries.

Its a pity about the 4GB cap on memory, what a waste of a product imo

I wonder if there will be a later version with a memeory card slot? The battery is'nt too big an issue in my opinion though, you will find after market batteries, and if not if it lasts a day it should be sufficent, I have'nt used a phone till date thats lasted me past 10pm.
Lets see if they release the keyboard version with a mem card slot or not. I would be a wee bit difficult to use only a touch screen after getting used to the Qwerty keyboard on the TyTn II
