Another touch screen phone by HTC. The feature which attracted me most would be the touch screen and the TouchFLO 3D finger swipe navigation. Can you imagine touch screen with 3D enable user interface? Even though this phone has yet to be released as of now, I strongly believe that HTC touch diamond will make most mobile phone lovers out there screaming "wow"!

I love the 2.8' inches beautiful large screen, the Wifi function and also the 3.2MP with auto focus... what else? The build in GPS, the operating system (Microsoft Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional), this phone has got almost everything that you need. Did I just say "everything"?



For those who is still wondering what is TouchFLO 3D, it actually provides animated access to people, messaging, email, photos, music, weather and more. Which means whatever icon that you touch, it will be animated. More fun?

Oopss.... Have I forgot to mention that this phone do not have a memory card slot? It actually comes with a build-in 4G memory. I think should be sufficient eh? I also think that it's a little hard to text while driving by using a touch screen phone.

Hopefully it will be available before end of the year... Really looking forward to the HTC Touch Diamond.
