Any idea if the Diamond is exclusive to Sprint?

I want the Diamond, but I'm a Verizon/Vzw customer and still within my 2-yr contract. Anyone know if Verizon will be offering the Diamond or if Sprint has an exclusive deal. If Sprint has an exclusive, how long?

Thanks in advance for your insight!

Not even remotely exclusive. Verizon will be getting a gimped version about a month or two later. Already well-confirmed.

Also, wrong board. This is for the Touch Pro.

My bad, I meant 'Diamond Pro'.

Thanks for the update! That's good news. I'll impatiently wait.

No such thing as a Diamond Pro. There's a Touch Diamond, and a Touch Pro. Touch Pro is roughly the Diamond with more RAM, keyboard, flash, etc.

Anyway, yes, Verizon will also be getting a gimped version of the Touch Pro in a couple of months.

WOW, ok. Thanks for clarifying. I definitely meant the "Touch Pro"

Lol, I guess it really doesn't matter what he is trying to ask since the answer is still the same, "Its Gimped"

True, but it'll be hard to find if he gets the name wrong. I was trying to hammer home the point that it's gimped on Verizon. I don't think enough people realize this. They may have "the best" network, but they pull crap like this all the time.

Not to further go off topic but today i held the touch diamond in hand and OMG THE THING IS SMALL! I guess its also cause my hands are large, but the thing is miniature compared to the mogul. I cant wait to see the touch pro in person

So...just imagine very close to the same height, less width and same depth as your Mogul...there you go. Touch Pro!
