HTC is beting a lot on the new HTC Touch Diamond, maybe a strong competitor of iPhone 3G. One of advantages that HTC has is it’s market share that has a great portion of customers.
Another thing that users can consider when buying this new gadget it’s about the avaliabilty of applications, acessories, and users to trade information and experiences, and in this case, HTC has a huge adavantage considering that there are a lot of Windows Mobile users, applications and so on.
The integration of Windows Mobile devices it’s better than the first iPhone. One thing we can assume: HTC decided invest a lot of money on this new device, it’s a great beat in “the war” of the gadgets phone, one sample of that is the new 3D interface that HTC developed. This interface does not loose nothing about iPhone’s interface.

For all those that did not hear about TouchFlo 3D, this is the new interface of HTC Touch Diamond device. HTC is revolutioning the way of using Windows Mobile devices.
It’s true that this revolution takes a “ride” on Apple’s iPhone. But beeing honest, if someone did something good, why do not take advantage on it, and if possible try to improve it.
I believe that HTC did this with HTC Touch Diamond and with TouchFlo 3D.

Dubai: High Tech Computer Corporation (HTC) has launched a new 3G version of its HTC Touch ahead of the awaited launch of the 3G iPhone.
“Today we mark a new era in mobile phone evolution, an era where beauty and size integrate with uncompromising innovation at broadband speeds,” said Kevin Chen, General Manager, HTC Middle East and Africa and CIS.
HTC Touch Diamond, priced at Dh3,299, offers a 2.8-inch LCD touch screen and has a new 3D touch interface called TouchFLO 3D. Read more »
Threaded SMS, “Getting Stated” wizard, improved video performance (finally), more efficient power draw (read: better battery life), and overall faster performance are all pieces of the Windows Mobile Professional 6.1 package. And, seeing as how the update is free, there’s no reason why anyone shouldn’t hop on board the WM6.1-train.
HTC has made their Windows Mobile 6.1 ROM for the HTC TyTn II (Kaiser) available through their e-Club webpage. Unfortunately for AT&T Tilt customers, they’ll have to wait for Big Blue to get with the times and release an update for the AT&T-branded version of the HTC Kaiser.
Airtel network announced exclusively that their customers has the HTC Touch Diamond avaliability.
The Touch Diamond sports a 3D touch interface called “TouchFLO 3D” that promises animated access to people, messaging, email, photos, music, weather, and more. The device comes with a 2.8-inches VGA touch screen, 3.2 mega pixels auto-focus camera, 4GB internal storage, and integrated GPS for turn-by-turn satellite navigation, and operates on Windows Mobile 6.1.
This week we focused our attention on HTC press conference in Taiwan. At press conference HTC affirmed that it will not take so long for us to get the new Diamond with the whole TouchFLO 3D features. Everything give us an idea that HTC Touch Diamond will be available on the market in mid June of 2008.
In the beginning the new device will be available only on Taiwan, but there are plans to quickly expand to other markes. HTC estimated the price of the new HTC Touch Diamond will round about $772 with no contracts. This is only an estimative and HTC says the this price will vary from region to region.
I got interesting information from Matt of Tracy and Matt’s Blog that he’s been able to grab a shot of one of the upcoming accessories for the HTC Touch Diamond.
“I must say that this looks super sexy with its glossy black finish. You’ll also notice the decent looking set of headphones in that photo above which, in my mind, implies that the dock/cradle will allow you to sync, charge and use headphones while the device Diamond is plugged in! Now that would be cool!”
That would be pretty cool. The Touch Diamond will be hitting Europe in a couple of weeks, so we’ll undoubtedly see more and more accessories soon. This one will supposedly cost about $50 US — not too bad. The UK product page says…
“Sync, charge up and listen to the music! Charge or synchronise your HTC Touch Diamond simply by placing the handset in the cradle.
Plug the desktop cradle into a home stereo system via the cradle’s 3.5mm line out connection to enjoy high quality music playback.
Sleek and simple, like the HTC Touch Diamond, this cradle is the perfect accessory.”
So there you have it. Charging, synching, and audio out. Pretty standard.
HTC is taking the widely popular Apple (NSDQ:AAPL) iPhone to task with Tuesday’s introduction of the HTC Touch Diamond, a compact touch screen device that is smaller than its chief rival and beats the iPhone to the 3G network.
The device, which measures 102 mm by 51 mm by 11.33 mm and weighs in at 110 g, is smaller than the iPhone and will be available in North America later this year and earlier in other parts of the world.
HTC isn’t new to the touch screen game. The Touch Diamond is the latest update of HTC’s Touch smartphone line, which has sold more than 3 million units worldwide since last June, HTC chief marketing officer John Wang told Reuters.
But it is the updates to operating on the 3G network that will make it a true competitor for Apple’s iPhone, which has not yet divulged plans for a 3G model.
