Touch Diamond Review....

[iceman72]

Anyone have the CNET review?

[iceman72]

CNET review folks. Damn if they don't fix the speed issue and sound quality I may just keep my mogul. This really sucks because i was really looking forward to this phone or the pro.

I am hopinh HTC and Sprint will clean up these problems before it comes to the US. The same exact issues were reported with the original Touch when it was released in Europe. By the time it got to the US, most of the performance issues were resolved. My only concern is that in order to resolve those performance issues, they had to put a faster processor in there. Not sure if that's a possibility for the Diamond.

I hope they don't mess up the pro because that what I had my heart set on....

Actually I bet this is a windows mobile 7 phone.....I can vouch for the huge performance deference the mogul got going from windows mobile 6 to 6.1

Yes but it has been said the small lag is from the TF3D and turning it off allows the device to breathe and speed along faster. Just like XP on 256mb or even some 512mb machines, turning off some of the eye candy allows for a better and more smooth OS preformance.

I don't think its the touchflo ui causing the problem...I think its win mobile causing it. It takes a crap load of resources for windows to run (even in the background).
