Dear dcperdue,

I have to disagree with you on several points. But before i begin realize that these are my views based on my experience, yours may differ.

First & foremost, the build quality of the Diamond is by far inferior to any device I've ever owned, and I've had a few. Sure i dropped the phone, i get it. But that doesn't change the fact that the phone was almost a total loss after a 4 foot drop (*edit: actually i just measured and it was a 2'9" drop). The back cover is only slightly more rigid than cardboard. This is my second Diamond, the first one was missing the 4GB internal storage completely!!!

Second, where are these apps that you speak of? I'm not talking about the ones the good people of these forums are dedicating their spare time too. I'm talking about actual developer apps for productivity and entertainment alike, & support from HTC, which is non-existent. Don't even think about comparing Iphone appstore with what's available from HTC.

Third, parts. Why is it impossible to find stock replacement parts for my Diamond. Maybe you know of some magical place where i can find a replacement back cover for it, and you're not sharing? If so shame on you! Actually, come to think of it, i don't want a stock cover, i need something a little more sturdy because because my tiny little arms can't handle the weight of the phone.

If you read my post cearly, you would have seen that I actually tried to liked the Diamond, specifically because of Juicy, Mighty, Juggalo & all the wonderful people who devote their valuable time to make everyones experience better. Unfortunately my experience hasn't been so and i sincerely hope that yours isn't the same.
