Re: Swapping Touch Pro for Diamond
Just made the switch not even 15 minutes ago.

WOW

Definitely feels way better in the hand, and not just size wise. Pressing on the screen is very solid, no more creaking or looseness.

Would that be ... because it has no keyboard?

Re: Swapping Touch Pro for Diamond
I waited for the Touch Pro over the Diamond. MicroSD and KB was deal breaker. Also heard/read that Diamond has MORE of a battery issue than the TP....should research before considering a switch.

I am keeping my Touch Pro...loving IT!!!

Re: Swapping Touch Pro for Diamond
i actually switch between the 2 every other week or so. mostly because i like the diamond because it is small, but the pro for the sd card and flash on camera ( i don't really use the kb ). both are great devices and since they take the same battery i always have a spare

Re: Swapping Touch Pro for Diamond
I went from having a device that had a keyboard (Motorola Q & Treo 700p) to the original touch. I tried the diamond for a couple of days and still missed the keyboard. Keyboard, SD slot, and KB is the deal sealer for me. The rest of the issues others will figure out over time.

Re: Swapping Touch Pro for Diamond
I don't think it's good choice to go for Diamond from Touch Pro.

I had diamond before I changed to Touch Pro. I don't know what it is, but looks of the red metallic back just felt cheaper than the one on TP's. The diamond did have slimmer form factor, lighter, and internal memory, so if you are fan of it, I'd say go for it.

Keep in mind this is only coming from my personal experience thougn.

P.S. don't forget the TV out is available for the TP.

GL.

Re: Swapping Touch Pro for Diamond
I moved from the Diamond to the Pro. Had many more issues with the diamond than the pro.
