The one thing that I don't like about the Touch Pro is the size. I really would like to be able to keep my phone in a pocket. yes, I can do so with both my 6700 and the Touch Pro, but it does add considerable bulk to the pocket area.
I downloaded the HTC Diamond keyboard for my 6700 and I have to say, I actually like it better than Touch Pal or the other options, it's exactly what I need, not too much and configured the way I would use it.
So, that sealed it for me, Diamond it is. It also means I can replace my old 6700 a month earlier! And since it's cheaper than a Touch Pro, I can add a Bluetooth headset without feeling too guilty.

I'm confused. You have a 6700 right now, correct? That's bigger than the Touch Pro, so I don't get why your issue with the Touch Pro would be the size? The 6800 (Mogul) was even smaller than the 6700.
Can you elaborate? I just want to make sure I'm understanding where your logic is coming from.
Also, in case you hadn't seen the specs, the Diamond is only going to be 4mm thinner than the Touch Pro (since they added the bigger battery to the CDMA Diamond).
