Now the HTC Diamond, is emerging in the states, sometime soon, it’s been available in Oz for a while through Telstra. So having had the opportunity to get some hands on time in Telstra’s new stores, that offer real, working devices to try out, I’m faithfully waiting for the Touch Pro to appear down under.

Comparatively, it has quite a small form factor, similair to the tilt, with the design nuances of the Diamond. The attraction I have for the Touch Pro is the hardware keyboard, and the specs of course.

Ryan Block over at Engadget has done a great gallery of photo’s that really show the sleek and stylish Touch Pro at it’s best , and the thing that stand’s out to me is it’s visual symmetry. It seems to be well proportioned, and to have the quality build of recent HTC devices.

More of Ryan’s images after the break…

Head on over to Engadget for the full gallery

The Touch Pro looks like the progeny of the Tilt, and I’m really looking forward to it’s release, might get me to converge, this phone!
