HTC Touch Diamond/Pro

As you all know we really like cool phones with our company, and it is hard for anything to compete with Blackberry in our hearts unless it is super awesome. I have always like the HTC Touch phone because of the TouchFlo or MediaFlo interface it has. It has always been a cool phone, and a nice small touch screen phone for business users.

Now there were some problems with the HTC Touch and HTC Mogul when they came out, but some of the carriers like Sprint put out software upgrades to give them faster internet and patch some of the issues. So now that those problems have been resolved, what is the next step. Make a great functioning phone that looks awesome as well.

The Touch Diamond is the non QWERTY sister of the two. It looks to have a really cool interface, a 3.2 Mega-pixel camera, tons of on board storage (4 GB for current versions), and a slew of other features. I would recommend checking this video out to see what I am talking about.

The Touch Pro is the QWERTY sister. It has all similar features, and if the QWERTY is anything like the Mogul’s it will be awesome. I have felt HTC has always been a very innovative company, and we do not get to see many of their really awesome phones here in the U.S. From what I have read they will be making a stronger push this year and next year with their marketing to make it more of a name here. So HTC makes good phones and I think they listen to their customers by making improvements people ask for, as well as giving us awesome features we did not know could exist.

I doubt I will give up my Blackberry, but these two phones coming to Sprint are making me entertain the idea. If you have not become a Blackberry Addict yet TAKE THE CHALLENGE!
