having a hard time

I now have the decision to make, if i want the diamond or the touch pro. I cnnot decide no matter what i do i thought about the diffrences bettween the two and i mean all of them over and over again but i can not decide which one that i want i like the diamond becuase it is smaller and i dont mind not haveing a keyboard but i could use one and the 4gigs internal storage does not bother me it is enough the flash light on the camera does not bother me at all becuase no matter what if you are going to take a picture in a darker area it is going to end up bad unless you got and actually carmea but the whoe tv out thing i have not queit figured out yet can the diamond have tv out if i can that is sweet i might use it sometimes but very rarely and also some of the pros specs are better over all i just do not know what to do and i have a couple of days to decide before the pro comes out for alltel so please help

Re: having a hard time

I like the Diamond. Sure the Pro has TV out and SD slot, but the thickness and weight of it is horrible. I tried it out for a week, and it felt like I had a game controller shoved in my pocket.

Does Alltel have a return policy?

If so, get the Diamond, try it out for a few days....if you dont like it, exchange it for the pro.

Re: having a hard time

the biggest asset to the pro is the keyboard vs the diamond, so if you dont mind not having one that the diamond is the way to go for its compactness IMO

I would recommend the Touch Pro... You can increase the memory with the SD slot, so that helps... If you text or email a lot from your phone, the slide-out keyboard really helps... Either way, they are excellent phones... The Diamond is the logical upgrade from the Touch too.

Re: having a hard time

the diamond onscreen keyboard is amazing using the compact qwerty with T9.

i had the 6800 for a year and i don't miss the keyboard much.
