Having the ATT Tilt now for a few months, I was getting a bit anxious for HTC’s new devices to come out and the other day I finally got one — the HTC Touch Diamond!   The HTC Diamond is among HTC’s newest lines of pocket pc phone devices (along with the Touch Pro coming out later this summer) and these phones just keep getting better.   At a quick glance, here are some of it’s ‘major’ features and specs:

• 2.8" Touch Screen
• 528 MHz Processor (qualcomm msm7201a)
• VGA (640×480) Resolution
• 3.2 Auto focus camera and VGA Front facing camera
• 4gb Internal Storage (but no external memory card slot)
• Integrated GPS
• Tri-Band GSM/GPRS/EDGE (900/1800/1900 MHz)
• HSDPA/WCDMA 900/2100MHz
• 256mb Rom, 192mb DDR SDRAM
• Bluetooth 2.0 w/EDR and 802.11b/g Wifi
• FM Radio (with RDS)

Update 7/21/08 — Looks like those who have US that have the diamond are able to get the 850mhz band working (gsm/edge) — perhaps, soon, even US 3g!  check out more at:  http://www.wmexperts.com/articles/new_diamond_rom_enables_850_ed.html .
