HTC’s Big Announcement: The Touch Diamond
Forget all the Android rumors. HTC’s huge, mysterious product launch — which got much less mysterious with all the pictures and specs leaking out over the past week — is the
Touch Diamond.
On top of its black-tie good looks, the Touch Diamond is pretty much redefining killer specs (except maybe the battery):
Size: 102 x 51 x 11.33mm
Weight: 110 g
Connectivity: WCDMA / HSPA: 900/2100MHz. HSDPA 7.2 Mbps and HSUPA
Operating system: Windows Mobile® 6.1 Professional
Display: 2.8-inch VGA touch screen
Camera: 3.2MP, with video calling
Internal memory: 4 GB Internal Storage, 256 MB flash, 192 MB RAM,
Bluetooth: 2.0 with EDR
Wireless: WiFi 802.11b/g
GPS: GPS/AGPS
Interface: HTC ExtUSBTM (mini-USB and audio jack in one; USB 2.0 High-Speed)
Battery: 900 mAh
Talk time: GSM: up to 4 hours
Standby time: GSM: up to 300 hours/100 hours with push email
Chipset: Qualcomm® MSM 7201ATM 528MHz
The gorgeous new TouchFLO 3D interface, running on top of Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional, looks amazing — check out HTC’s site for demos — and HTC is also throwing in new, customized applications for Web browsing and YouTube.
Diamonds are harder than fruit, right? With availability of June in Europe and the second half of 2008 in North America, we’ll find out soon if the Touch Diamond can cut it.

I have to say this looks like a bleedingly cool device. 192 MB of RAM? I think freaking yes.

The size gets me, it packs a huge wallop for a very small form factor.
