Re: Who's staying with their Diamond?

I'm staying with whatever Sprint has that works with the SERO plan. Can't beat the free data and tethering plus 500 mins for $30. I'll never go to something like the Pre or iPhone as long as I can keep this plan.

Brilliantly put! Phones can sometimes just be PHONES...but a plan at $35 including tax and all those goodies is hard to beat! I've been with Sprint for a hot minute now...going on 10 years and I ain't going nowhere.

Re: Who's staying with their Diamond?

The only thing I wish my diamond had was a larger screen, but its not worth upgrading into a new contract just for a little larger screen. If I can get the Hero on Sero, I might go for it but otherwise I'm waiting on winmo 7 before upgrading.

Re: Who's staying with their Diamond?

I'm going to hold on to my Diamond for now too, unless I get a smokin' deal on a gently used TP. I figure between snapdragon/tigra cpus and wm7, I have a lot to wait for in the next 15 months until my contract is up. I'm also waiting for Telus to fully launch their HSDPA network next spring and LTE beyond that.

Re: Who's staying with their Diamond?

when the pro2 hits sprint im blowing it on this diamond. never really cared for the design and screen size. really missed my touch( had promised to my girl when i got the diamond) the support for it has been exceptional and kept it tolerable.

Re: Who's staying with their Diamond?

I'm ready for a "better" Diamond. So I'm defenitely going to play with the TP2 - which I'm getting for my spouse, but I'm looking forward to the Diamond2 / Topaz / Whitestone. Can't hardly wait... But I have to.

Re: Who's staying with their Diamond?

when windows mobile 7 hits, and the sick new processors that are coming out soon as well, there could be some really nice dangerous phones coming out within the next 18 months. cant wait. im really looking for a larger screen with a much smaller body in thickness...look how thin the new iphones are with much bigger screens and us diamonds are still pretty thick, dont understand it. For all you Sprint lovers they already rolled out the newest 4g and some markets so it shoudl be comming to a market new you soon, can't wait for a phone to support that as well, if it even needs any support from the phone.

Re: Who's staying with their Diamond?

I will be staying with my Diamond for now.
Still tweaking
Always something new to download. The size is perfect for my pocket.
The "wanting the newest device out" is wearing off for me once I met my Diamond
The Diamond is still a pretty cool device.
If the Diamond2 comes out, I will have a look, but it will most likely be very similar to the Diamond so I may not want to spend the $$$$$$

Re: Who's staying with their Diamond?

I don't think there is any REVOLUTIONARY developments in smartphone technology in the market right now. Most smartphones can do the same web browsing, email sync, media playback, etc... Snapdragon chipset and Nvidia Tegra chip are examples of evolutionary development that will improve the quality of experience on the phone, but they aren't widely available yet (other than snapdragon on TG01). Diamond is more than capable for today's smartphone duties, imho.

I just hope next year there will be a phone with 2Ghz snapdragon 2 + nvidia tegra + dual boot Android and WinMo... Everyone on this board would buy that!

Re: Who's staying with their Diamond?

I wouldn't mind a bigger screen but the thinness of the Diamond is so nice. I saw a comparison between the Touch Pro 2 and the Diamond as far as thickness and it is the same IIRC.
