Want to upgrade from Sprint Touch to Diamond or Pro

I've had my Touch for a year now and am thinking of upgrading. i was looking at the Diamond but now I see that the Pro is available.

Is the only difference between the Diamond and Pro the qwerty keyboard and the memory card slot?

Pro also has TV-Out, personally I would never give up my Diamond for the Pro. Really your choice though.

Why wouldn't you switch?

I also heard that the Pro has a flash on it too. So those 3 things, keyboard, memory slot and flash and a silver back instead of the red back

I switched. Not only the mem expansion slot, tv out, and keyboard, it has 270MB free rom space for programs stored on the device. The diamond has roughly 60MB. And the TP has a few extra programs that really aren't worth anything but they are there. Like abovelegit said, it's your choice. The diamond is a great phone also and I'm not knocking it in any way! I still haven,t sent my diamond back and I have been thinking of ways to keep it without spending lotsa dough!

for your kind information htc touch pro also support tv output as well anbd the only difference between the diamond and the touch pro is the diamond comes with inbuilt 4gb memory and touch pro doesnt. but diamond doesnt have expandable memory card slot while touch pro has and think about it now we have the 16gb sd cards which is supported by the touch pro. so if i were u i would deffinately upgrade to a pro. mater a fact i have a mogul and already ordered a touch pro for $149.99 after mail-in-rebate.

I forgot about the flash.....but in all honesty I like the burgundy/black scheme of the diamond better than the silver/chrome scheme of the TP.

they also say that battery life is better on the Pro and it doesn't get as hot while using it

your right...mine got slightly warm on a 30 minute call today. Nowhere near the "hotness" of the diamond. I unplugged my charger sunday morning at 9 am and I still have 2 bars on it now.
