[SprintTouch08]

i think anyone returning the diamond for the pro because of battery issues is just kidding themselves at this point. The pro will be no better on battery with nearly identical hardware and identical battery. It is actually rated at less talktime than the Diamond according to HTC's specs.

If the VZW radio hasnt improved your Diamond's battery to your liking, then dont think a Pro will magically give you more either. It just may be how the 2 devices are on batteries due to the processors and memory combinations.

Also the heat shield- heat control is much better with the VZW radio, but dont instantly assume the Pro wont have this problem as well. No one predicted the Diamond would so its too early to say if the Pro will as well, not that the HTC employee in here doesnt know if its there, but it may not make all that much difference honestly.

Someone in here took apart their Diamond (sorry cant remember the user right now but ill find the post) and there is already a gel heatsink in there, so you really think a flimsy piece of steel will change the heat coming from the processor and internals THAT much? He also essentially provided evidence that nothing would change the amount of heat being given off by the boards

Once again i think people are trying to fool themselves the pro will be that much better than the diamond and fix their problems when its the same exact phone with a keyboard slapped on. I cant wait for the flood of whiners in the Raph forum the week of launch complaining about the battery life and it gets warm and how HTC and Sprint both suck and make defective phones and are the devil
