NO NO NO!!! they better release a "diamond version" and "touch pro version", meaning a flat non-keyboard HD and an HD with keyboard.

the phones already big enough, i dont need another inch of thickness for a keyboard that i personally dont use.

Heck ya man, i hear ya......the whole "CARRYING A BRICK" thing is killing me, that is why i kick myself everyday for switching out my diamond for the touch pro. Maybe......just maybe if i hadn't switched i wouldn't have to be killing myself to try and sell the d@mn thing lol

Did you know that the HTC Max 4g is the WiMax version of the HTC HD released in Russia? Also the HTC Max 4g did not have the 3.5mm jack.

You guys should have had a Siemens SX-66, now that was a brick of a phone. In fact add the aluminum case with swingout door and I felt like I was holding a brick with a door (that loved to hit you in the face).

HD + Keyboard, if its under a million bucks I'd replace my Q9C most likely. I do admit a non-slider is easier for one handed (ahem driving) operation, but I don't like touch-only devices (ala Touch, iPhone etc).

hey let's all hold our breathe see what happens first....

I wouldn't be interested exchanging for my first born.....but my "second" born....well....that's do-able.

he was referencing the term "HD Pro" in the blog post that was linked to. The blog post calls a new phone the "HD Pro" (aka HTC Rhodium) in the context that the writer likes phones with physical keyboards.

And considering HTC recent phone lineups. I assume an "HD Pro" would mean a slide out keyboard.

EDIT: whoa, way late on this, didnt realize there were two more pages of posts after yours. LOL

Ok, saw on another thread that a sprint employee has already been playing with the prototype HD, AND that Rhodium is a diff phone even from that.
