I created a thread at XDA forum.

I actually think this is a creally good idea the ok button is also indented in a little bit so it wont be getting pressed all the time turning on the screen but its quicker to use i would def install any app that had that and maybe a long along with it.

I never said anything about iPhone dude, but I do agree that there should be alternatives to switching on the device. In all cases, that's what differentiates the iPhone vs Diamond, you can develop into a better device

Yeah, while it isn't a huge problem, I will admit that the power button can be somewhat hard to get used to compared to the Mogul. It isn't necessarily because it is located in a different place, but it really is semi-difficult to press because you do have to use your fingernail (or at least I do). If I use my actual finger, when I press, the softness of my finger doesn't allow the device to turn on. So I see the point the OP is making.

I just got my diamond last night and I haven't once had to use my finger nail on the power, I just shift my pointer finger up and it presses it just fine. maybe some of you got a bum phone that you have to press extra hard or something.

Re: tired of pressing power button
 

I agree. I have had my Diamond since 9/16 and have not once had an issue with the power button. It is a little more difficult to depress than the power button on the Touch, IMO, but I think that is a good thing. Since I carry mine in my pocket i don't want my Diamond coming on while I am walking, as often was the case with my Touch.

But I have never needed to use my fingernail to power on my diamond.

Re: tired of pressing power button
 

yea so far, all I need to do is power down the screen and I have not dialed out once in pocket or in holser. it scares me how small it is in my pocket, I cant feel it like I did my mogul worried ill drop it.

Re: tired of pressing power button
 

Just wondering just how BIG are your fingers? I have large fingers...at least my wife calls them snauasges...but I don't think the power button is really a problem.

Re: tired of pressing power button
 

I was wondering about that too...thanks. It helps when you constantly change themes.etc.
