Careful the Screen is GLASS

It seems that the screens on the diamond/touch pro are made of very fragile glass. Which has been proven by my brothers diamond. He had it sitting on the counter and it got knocked off about 3 feet and the screen shattered. So just a warning the screens are not as durable as our old moguls/touches

Sorry for the loss (your brother that is) and thanks for warning everyone. Did your brother have any case of some sort on it?

From what I was aware of, the screen on the CDMA TP is not glass but plastic. That's why it scratches so easily... Supposedly they did it to keep weight and cost down.
