Is the diamond that much better then the touch?
I am with alltel and I know sprint now has the diamond and I am just trying to figure out if the diamond is going to be worth it over the touch.

I am running manilla 2d now, so that should be a similar. I currently have a 16gb memory card. So it would be a big drop in storage. (but 4 gb will be enough for me.)

I guess I just have a few questions that maybe some of you could help with.

Battery Life?
Is the flash memory that much better? even with only 4gb?
Is touchflo3d, that much better.
overall Speed?



If anyone could help with these it would be greatly appreciated. I like the device, but dont know if I should go for that or the touch pro.

You will be sacrificing storage and battery for speed, though with the battery fix reg edit, battery life isn't horrible anymore. having an accelerometer rocks the socks too.

Re: Is the diamond that much better then the touch?
until recently i just had a 6 gb card, then went to a 8 class 4, then last week a class 6. and now this week a 16. I am using just over 4 gb now. So i should have room for everything i need on there. and if I have to i can just delete 50 songs or so. and call it good.

Accelerometer looks like it will be great, and I am sure there will soon be some great apps to come with it.

diamond is appealing because i like something that is small, and the touch pro seems like it would be to bulky for me.

Re: Is the diamond that much better then the touch?
i have seen screenshots of sd cards functioning at least with the bootloader using a dongle. I would be willing to wager some uber genious will figure that out and give us access to sd cards in a pinch. No2Chem did get a diamond I hear. that is as long as he doesn't get sued out of existance by the dumbass verisign.
