Best Buy, Radio Shack gearing up for Touch Diamond launch on Sprint?

by Chris Ziegler, posted Aug 4th 2008 at 9:09AM

It seems that Sprint's letting the cat out of the bag on its upcoming Touch successor -- within its trusted circle of retailers, anyway. We've now received some juicy morsels of information suggesting that both Best Buy and Radio Shack have been told to expect shipments of the MP6950 Touch Diamond in the next few weeks, with the big blue box tentatively expecting stock on August 17 (we think they're fooling themselves there, but it'd be nice) and the Shack expecting a more realistic-sounding September 2 launch. Along with the Touch Pro, the Touch Diamond should go a long way toward revitalizing Sprint's smartphone lineup at a time when the carrier can pretty much use every little bit of help it can get. In fact, we think we'll hook this up to a SERO plan and... ah, wait, never mind.

That is simply sprint buy the domain for reserve. Like for example, U bought a domain named ipod.com before ipod even comes out. Then when ipod comes out and its a big hit, apple will buy the domain to you for millions of dollars. Imagine U created pepsi.com or coke.com when the internet started. Whooooaaa! instant millionaire!

Original Message Follows:
Question: Hello, I'm writing in regards to a report I recently read from
HTC. It said that you guys were going to be releasing the Diamond in
August. I was wondering if you had anymore details, such as an actual
date or price. Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
