HTC's Touch Diamond

It's now HTC coming with a new touch screen phone which seems to be inspired by Apple's iphone in many ways. It is Touch Diamond which will undoubtedly get compared to the iPhone, as the two devices share more than a few similarities.

The on-screen keyboard is one example which looks exactly like the iPhone's. There's even a zoom in / zoom out effect when opening and closing the full programs menu... just like the iPhone. And of course a custom YouTube app... just like you-know-who.

Some of the features which distinguish it are.....

1. It's sleek and smaller

The Touch Diamond is about the size of a deck of cards, but half the thickness and lot smaller than it looks in comparison to iphone. It also manages to squeeze a 640x480 screen into such a small body.

2. Silent your phone by setting the face down

If you get an incoming call that you don't want to answer, you can set the phone face down on your desk to silence the ringer.

3. Auto opening of notepad

If you want to jot something down mid-conversation, pulling the stylus out of the bottom of the phone will automatically open up the note-taking application.

4.Cool Flashing LED

The circular touchpad also has various LED configurations that will flash in different combinations to alert you to missed calls, new e-mails, new text messages, and so forth.

5.New TouchFlo 3D interface

The new TouchFlo 3D interface does completely replace the main programs menu, which is a welcome touch. Now you can easily choose and arrange icons for your most-used applications on a custom menu set up exactly how you like it, and even the list of additional programs has a slick look with finger-touch interaction.

All in all, I think the Touch Diamond will find its way into a lot of people's hands.

Will it be next big hit after iphone? Probably i believe YES.
