haha... Yeah.. Too bad.. As I see it.. The Touch Pro and the Diamond are the flagship offerings that HTC has in the United States right now.. I know they have the HTC HD and the HTC Max, but until those are released in the US for public consumption, I just don't see why they would not want the maximum potential of their flagship phone's realized..

I know HTC makes a lot of phones, not even including contracted work like the G1, but it is better to be at your 100% with fewer phones than 85% with a whole swath of offerings..

In the long term, the benefits will outway the costs... It may cost them $260k or whatever to have great graphic drivers, but its better than becoming known for having sub-par graphics on your high-end flagship phones..

What I find interesting is that HTC is not the only company that utilizes the ARM11 processor chipset, yet they are the only one that seems to have well-known graphic-related issues...
