for those thnking about getting the pro instead of the diamond...
 

i believe you got it watch this little video before making your decision. note that the GSM version of the diamond is a little smaller than the CMDA version. The Pro still the same size GSM and CDMA. i was thinking about getting the pro but after this video i guess i'll pass.

I will still get the Pro. I prefer to have the hardware keyboard. I have had the Diamond for about 2 weeks and can't wait to get a real keyboard back. I will admit that I like how thin the Diamond is but that doesn't make up for the lack of keyboard or memory slot or TV out...at least for me.

i thought the same but after using resco keyboard there's no need for a keyboard. this software keyboard is amazing and accurate. also single hand typing is great with this application. rarely i make mistakes.

What about that video changed your mind? I would assume you already knew a version with a keyboard would obviously be thicker then one without. As for one handed operation, anything that runs on the Diamond will run on the Touch Pro.

I thought the Pro was slightly smaller than the Mogul..why does it looks so brick-ish in that video?

Re: for those thnking about getting the pro instead of the diamond...
 

lol, let me ask you this now, the iphone doesn't rely on keyboard but if they made one with a keyboard and twice has big, would you still buy it. you can do everything with a software keyboard and keeping the thinner look. when i meant about the one handed typing is that i don't have to hold the brick like htc pro and could hold the slim diamond to type one handed. This is the reason i loved my Treo 700wx because i was able to type one handed without sliding a keyboard.

Re: for those thnking about getting the pro instead of the diamond...
 

my guess is because they are comparing it to a GSM Diamond which is 3mm smaller than the CDMA diamond...that would make it seem like such a difference. I've seen it next to the CDMA Diamond and the Sprint Mogul before and it is slightly smaller, plus it just looks so much sleeker, I cant wait to buy the pro and sell my sprint diamond on ebay...my wife doesn't care though, we both switched from the mogul to the diamond, and she would rather have a smaller phone...i want the slide out and the sd slot

Re: for those thnking about getting the pro instead of the diamond...
 

i do understand your point about having an SD slot, which it was a mistake not having it on the diamond. but to me there's no need to have a bulkier phone than the diamond and 4gb is enough for me. have all the software, including mp3z, photos, and igo8 (with eastern usa maps) still have left 3gb free space which i still don't know what to do with it.

Re: for those thnking about getting the pro instead of the diamond...
 

which version of resco keyboard are you using? I still have a couple of weeks to try different things out to change my mind about switching. Is it a full qwerty or the 20 key?

Re: for those thnking about getting the pro instead of the diamond...
 

The specs say that the Diamond is 11.35mm thick. NOT. I measured it and it is actually 14.5mm thick. The Pro is supposed to be 18.05mm where my Mogul was 18.5mm. So I dont thing the size difference will be that dramatic unless the Pro for Sprint comes out 22mm instead of 18mm.
