what made you choose the Touch Diamond over the Pro - Page 2

I was going to return for the pro.. in fact I still can, but for me its about size?

Its too fat! Really thats the only reason... I keep it in my pocket and the touch pro really needs to be worn on the waist (something I am just not willing to do...)

Plus truth is the amount of typing I do... diamond works fine!

Trust me.. try it. I wanted the pro too..

I went back and looked it up. They both have 288 MB.

yeh i was about to post too i dunno where you got your information from but they both have 288mb of RAM.

The only differences are sd slot and keyboard. for me its the smaller size (thickness) that the diamond wins on. the touchscreen keyboard just takes getting use it. its not that bad and there are PLENTY of other keyboards to try. Personally i think pocketcm's is great and its free with a ton of skins.

also supposedly, theres a thread around here on it, the diamond can do tv out too. cant see why not when they share hardware. personally imo thats jsut a toy anyways unless youre in the 1% of people who use it for powerpoint presentations its kinda gimmicky. a laptop or computer is a much better solution to browse of watch video on a larger screen anyways.

TV out would be kinda cool, hopefully the Diamond will do this in the future

if it cant natively (cant see why not when the 2 devices share 90% of its hardware) someone will figure it out like a lot of other stuff here.

how much thicker is the pro then the Diamond?

**InvincibleLiving** · #19 (**permalink**) 10-17-2008, 04:15 PM

also given the fact that it will be sized right between the diamond and the mogul thickness wise i can live with that! the mogul was a brick but i got used to it... and the added size due to the sliding kb is not much more (maybe 2-3 mm more according to specs)

the diamond is 15mm thick and the pro is 18mm, same as the mogul. its just a narrower device so it feels smaller in the hand but its no thinner
