It does have an accelerometer. The accelerometer will only orient the screen in certain apps. Luckily this is Windows mobile and the boys and XDA have figured a way around. AND you don't even need to hold down a button.

I am eligible for my 2 year upgrade in December. I was going to get the Diamond. But will probably wait for the HD, now. Even though it won't show up on Sprint till next year sometime.

Re: Can I live with the Diamond or do I NEED the Touch Pro? Keyboard or no Keyboard?

Not sure what kind of phone you use now. But if you have a WM Device now with touch screen capability download the Diamond keyboards to your existing phone and play with them. This is what I did because I had the Mogul and was really wondering if I could live without the keyboard.

For me, I am tired of carrying around a brick. I had the PPC-6700 before the Mogul and they are both Bricks. Great phones mind you, in fact the 6700 I liked better, but I just can't keep having this brick on my hip.

I ultimately wanted to blend my Phone, Laptop and iPod together in one unit. Biggest complaint I will have on the new Diamond is no upgradeable memory but its a trade off...will only move my top albums to the Diamond and keep the iPod for travel.

Good luck with your choice.
