Asian HTC Touch Diamond launch event took place today
May 22, 2008 [Pocket PC phone] | By Edward J. R.

Today, on May 22nd 2008, 2:30pm local time, HTC organized similar event to that in London but this time in Singapore: an Asian launch of HTC Touch Diamond! Apparently HTC Touch Diamond will go on sale in Asia also in June 2008 - the same as in Europe. Release date for USA still is not clear and it wold be only logical to expect a similar launch event in USA any time soon but it may be difficult because in USA there are only 2 carriers with GSM/HSDPA networks and one of them will be busy this summer with other product...

After this Asian launch, HTC has released another news story about HTC Touch Diamond..

Infromation from HTC follows.
