HTC Touch Diamond Review
When the original HTC Touch launched, critics charged that it had conflicting personalities: it wanted to be a home user's device, with a simple touchscreen interface, but was really too attached to its business-like Windows Mobile side to truly work. The Touch Diamond not only reflects lessons learned from those year-old quirks but is also HTC's first real chance at developing a product (almost) from the ground up to fight the iPhone. We take a look at the Diamond in a comparison review not only to see how well it fares against its US-designed counterpart but whether HTC was focused on interface or specsmanship.

What a stupid review
Your reviewer obviously knows little about cellphones, especially windows mobile ones.
Firstly, there have been plenty of VGA windows mobile phones, and there are plenty around at present. Secondly the GSM Touch Diamond is much thinner than the iPhone. Thirdly maybe your reviewer should have used a PC, not Mac to sync the phone, thats what most iPhone users use. Fourthly, he said little about the areas of advantage of the Touch, such as being able to set any music as ring tones, to use A2DP, to beam music to other people, to cut and paste in the browser, to use voice dialing, to record video or many other areas where this phone blows the iPhone away.
Another sham review clearly.
