No one really stood up to Apple directly until little ol' Palm came back

So far, since hearing its announcement at 5am today, and i was impressed by the durable design on the Diamond2 but was sorely let down on the Touch Pro2.

Apart from carrying a name over from a previous design, taking away key features (Camera Flash and TV-Out) alienating their support base and re-classifying the device as a stricter business phone. They could have named it the HTC Tilt Pro, you know? reserved the actual Touch Pro 2 name to a worthy successor.



Now if they, used the CDMA market to fund their upcoming projects (i.e TouchPro2/Diamond2) Could of at least used the funds to invest in the new CPU architecture, and reward their hardcore base with a capable device. Instead they go to the same sub par processors.

it is my only wish, that in some logical way, HTC has already contemplated about the same processor vs screen size increase = more to process. My wish is that they finally worked out some licensing arrangement to provide full 2D and 3D acceleration.. but judging by the videos, especially the one with the Diamond2 running WinMo6.5... the honey comb UI looked as slow to slide down and up as my custom WinMO6.5 ROM for the Pro(Raph) which leads me to believe they went the same dusty road NOT to include them.

If the TP2 had come out before the Touch Pro, i'd actually look forward to upgrading to the Touch Pro for the same specifications, size, weight, and added functionality of flash and tv out. plus soon we will have a rock solid winMo6.5 VGA release with Custom Manila from the Touch Pro2.

There you go!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I saw that too and just wrote something about it on another thread! Just look at he honeycomb when the guy flips it downwards. Its stutters more than grandma! This means only one thing. SAME CPU! SAME MISSING ACCELARATED DRIVERS! HAHAH! The cats out the bag now HTC! ..................
