Go take a peek at PhoneMag's Live Coverage (now archived) if you want the full experience, or you can also check out HTC's Touch Diamond page. There's not a lot of new information here, hardware-wise, because we already knew we'd be getting:
- Windows Mobile 6.1
- 256 ROM, 192 RAM, 4GB Internal Storage
- 2.8“ VGA Touchscreen
- Tri-Band (What?! Boo!) HSDPA
- A-GPS
- 3.2 MP Camera
- Bluetooth, WiFi, FM Radio
- 900, Yes 900 mAh Battery
- Accelerometer
The new new is that TouchFLO, as rumored, has indeed received quite an upgrade. They're not calling it Manilla (and truth be told it looks a lot better than Manilla did), they're calling it TouchFLO 3D. It featured Email, Weather, browser, music, and photos in an integrated interface that allows you some access to the data you're interested in without ”dumping“ you back into standard Windows Mobile quite as often as regular TouchFLO does.
The Touch Diamond will hit Europe and Asia in June, everybody else (read: us) ”later this year.“ Until then, we'll be heading over to the cosmetics aisle. We're so green with envy of our European friends, we're going to need some serious foundation to cover all this up.
Update: Some YouTube vids after the break!
