The good news? The HTC Touch Diamond2 is going to be launching this week in Europe and Asia (and in the US… but only with European bands, sadly). The less-than-good news? Don’t get too excited about the Touch Diamond2, Verizon Wireless customers. Your carrier has just launched… the HTC Touch Diamond. Ouch! Why so behind the times, VW?
The new HTC Touch Diamond combines all the performance and functionality of Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional with high–tech, innovative TouchFLO 3D Technology on its hi–res touchscreen. View, create, and edit documents in Word and Excel, view PowerPoint and PDF files, filter your Inbox, and stay connected – securely – with your office via ActiveSync or Wireless Sync. Take advantage of Wi–Fi connectivity, Bluetooth Wireless Technology and its 3.2 MP camera with flash and video capture. Use it as a tethered modem with Mobile Broadband Connect (previously named Broadband Access Connect), find your way with VZ Navigator and stay entertained and up to date with Windows Media Player and Visual Voice Mail.
Well, at least now you can see what the first generation Touch Diamonds look like up close and personal. I guess that’s something!
Listen up, Verizon customers! There are some really great deals on now on three awesome Windows Mobile devices!
The Samsung SCH-i760 is on for $150 bucks, the Verizon XV6900 is on for an amazing $70, and my favourite, the Samsung Omnia is on for $99 — not bad at all for a new device! All of these prices are, of course, only valid while supplies last.
What are you waiting for? If I were you, I’d grab up an Omnia while they’re hot, new, and cheap!
Verizon will soon be launching the HTC Touch Diamond!
Everything’s what you expect from the HTC Touch Diamond at this point – TouchFLO 3D interface, HSPA/Edge/Wi-Fi, Windows Media Player, 3.2 MP camera with flash, auto focus and video, built-in GPS, weighs 110 grams, 2.8 inch (640 x 480) VGA display, runs on Windows Mobile 6.1 Pro – but there’s been a curious drop in the memory from 256mb to 128mb.
I am curious to see how well stylus based phones can do in the market right now. What do you think – do stylus phones stand a chance?
Whoa – this just leaked! Some photos have been leaked in the PPCGeeks forums showing the 2009 products from HTC – including a Touch HD for Sprint and Verizon Wireless!
Looks like HTC has a few tricks up their sleeves with this lineup. A QWERTY keyboarded version of the Touch HD? Awesome!
Check out our image gallery under the cut for all the oooh and aaah worthy leaks!
A forum post over at PPC Geeks has just revealed how to go about unlocking the GPS on HTC Touch Pro handsets from Verizon Wireless.
The fix is a beta (I can’t stress that enough) and has no guarantee of not totally messing up your phone, however unlikely. That being said, those of you who are still brave enough (GPS-desperate enough) can check out the thread right here for step by step instructions!
According to some Verizon Wireless users, responses they’ve received from the carrier company addressing GPS related concerns suggest that the company may be removing the virtual lockdown of the GPS capabilities in certain WinMo phones in 2009.
Surprise, surprise! CNET’s Bonnia Cha has recommended the Samsung Omnia (on Verizon Wireless) over the new and much anticipated BlackBerry Storm. Cha says she prefers the Omnia because its operating system is a bit quicker to respond:
Though slightly more expensive, Verizon customers looking for a touch-screen smartphone will get a better user experience and faster performance from the Samsung Omnia than the RIM BlackBerry Storm.
First user manuals and full spec sheets, now official press releases – Verizon Wireless‘ Samsung Omnia is getting a lot of time in the spotlight this week!
Alright Verizon Wireless customers, put down the new BlackBerry Storm and hear me out, okay? And, while the real specs are still a mystery, we’re still talking about a 5MP camera/camcorder, full HTML browsing, and an expansive touchscreen.
While the Verizon page is linked to by Samsung’s website, the Verizon page itself doesn’t exist… yet. But it will. Oh yes, it will.
It’s about time! The LG Incite, which was announced over a month ago, is finally showing up on AT&T’s website – in stock and ready to be snatched up!
Sure, it might be bad timing for AT&T to release such a hyped device in the same week as Verizon Wireless launches their much hyped device – the BlackBerry Storm. But I would argue that it’s a great time to show what Windows Mobile has up their sleeve.
The LG Incite is available for $299 with a $100 mail-in rebate (Visa gift card) – not bad at all!
As we all know, the Samsung Saga is soon to hit Verizon Wireless stores. In fact, it’ll be in stores and ready to go home with you on December 1st.
But have you noticed… how blue this handset is? I know, I know – is this really news worthy? Well, no. But I had to draw attention to it again, just in case you had missed this. Now, I’m more of a purist — handsets should come in straight black or hot pink (I’m still a girl, alright?) But I have to say, this looks fairly sweet! Is this why our readers want this phone so badly? Cause I’ll grant you that one. I mean, if the HTC Touch Pro came in hot pink…
According to PhoneArena, the Samsung Omnia (i910) will soon be coming to Verizon Wireless and, as seen above, there are pictures to prove it!
The i910 is the CDMA/EVDO version of the OMNIA, (which is, of course, suitable for Verizon Wireless). It is expected to have similar specifications and design. The original OMNIA features large touchscreen, 5-megapixel camera, GPS, Windows Mobile 6.1 OS and DivX/XviD playback.
