After Orange, HTC spreads their diamonds to more operators: O2 and T-Mobile
May 08, 2008; [with touch-screen]
We were the first site on the Internet, that published photos of HTC Diamond branded by T-Mobile (taken by our reporter at T-Mobile's stand at CeBIT), but at that time (in March 2008, at CeBIT 2008 tradeshow that is 3 times bigger than CES in USA) we didn't know that it will be HTC's diamond!



Now also O2 is joining the diamond party... and like Orange, it uses its own variant of HTC TouchFLO 3D interface, but in blue instead of orange..

Video : chit-chat with Horace Luke from HTC
May 08, 2008; [with touch-screen]
Previously we have published audio recording of our chit-chat with Horace Luke from HTC, but this time we present Horace Luke in video - albeit only a short one (10 minutes, rationale: our SDHC memory card was full!).

The newly released HTC Touch Diamond has a stand-alone YouTube application (developed by HTC in cooperation with Google, that now owns YouTube) and Horace Luke was demonstrating this application and smooth YouTube playback during the main presentation at HTC event on May 6th 2008, so it is only proper that we present video recording with him also through YouTube:

Yahoo still incompetent about Windows Mobile: Yahoo! Go 3.0 released
May 07, 2008; [without touch-screen]
We remember times when Yahoo hated (literally!) Microsoft so much, that they were offering Yahoo! Go only for Symbian, but not for Windows Mobile. Later it has changed and Yahoo has warmed up to the Microsoft, but it is clear that Yahoo still is not competent about Windows Mobile:

UK: BT launches Total Broadband Anywhere with FREE Windows Mobile smartphones
May 07, 2008; [without touch-screen]
British Telecom (BT) is a former monopoly in the UK and still most DSL lines in UK are using BT lines, so no wonder that this "anywhere" offering is not the best in the world (note: in the UK still there is no such thing as truly unlimited mobile Internet over cellular networks), but since BT includes Windows Mobile phones for customers, who purchase this service, we are happy to inform you about it! Note that BT is even putting its own branding on HTC-made phones:

HTC beats Nokia: HTC releases as the first one a touch-screen phone with tilt sensor - HTC Touch Diamond !
May 06, 2008; [with touch-screen]
Nokia plans to release a Symbian S60 touch phone with tilt sensor but there are some issues and this phone is being delayed, and it is HTC, not Nokia, that releases as the first such phone! ... and this phone will be available to all operators and also to all customers without operator branding.

The name of this phone is "HTC Diamond" (but it will be sold through operators under different names too) and the most important new feature of this phone is tilt sensor, meaning that you can play games like this (this game will be included in the phone but developers will be able to develop their own games that take advantage of tilt sensor):



... where you can move balls by tilting the phone in various directions! Apart from that you can do many other useful functions like rejecting incoming phone call, rotating Internet browser, etc. with use of this function - it is not just a gimmick useful in games. It is a new revolutionary feature first seen in a phone powered by Windows Mobile (note: previously we postulated to Microsoft to include tilt sensor API in Windows Mobile)!

Apart from revolutionary tilt sensor, HTC Touch Diamond brings something wholly new to HTC manufacturing: stylish design! And this design is meant not just in hardware but also in software. Work on HTC Touch Diamond started at HTC in November 2006 - exactly then when Horace Luke :



... has left Microsoft and joined HTC (in other words: when HTC poached him from Microsoft). Everything that we wrote about Horace Luke appeared to be spot-on!

But first things first, so let's take a look at a box in which HTC Touch Diamond will be sold (note: it looks like pyramid! ... or a diamond):
