Re: Unlocked Diamonds at BB?

I wonder how the geek squad will capitalize on this, they will probably charge $150 to come out to your home and show you how to use the damn thing. I know this post is a little off topic but I really hate bestbuy sometimes with how they try to nickle and dime you for just about anything.

Re: Unlocked Diamonds at BB?

It advertises 7.5 hours of talk time! Sprint is showing about 4.5 hrs. Does the Best Buy one have a better battery than the one Sprint upgraded to?

Nope stock 900 mha, probably over exaggerating.

The BB one is GSM and the Sprint Diamond is CDMA. They are 2 different phones with 2 different battery life's. From what I have read from over at xda, the gsm version has some pretty poor battery life performance. So I wouldn't expect the advertised 7.5

Re: Unlocked Diamonds at BB?

Interestingly this GSM version should be comming soon according to their ETA. ( Estimate arrival time. 9/29-10/4/2008 )

Further speculating for a CDMA release, since it's "supposed" to be out before the GSM one..

Interesting... I wonder if Sprint's Diamond will have 2 batteries as well? Probably not because of the battery upgrade. They did include 2 batteries with the Instinct though...
