WHAT!!! It better not go to T-MOBILE. Your going to take a high end phone and give it to a SORRY service. That doesn't make any sense. Itll go to SPRINT on the CDMA and AT&T on GSM. Go to T-MOBILE. Please dont make me laugh. Its like giving a LAMBORGINI to a baby. It wouldnt know what to do with it. T-MOBILE...LOL

I agree. T-MOBILE is a joke. SPRINT is the only carrier for this phone in 2008. CALL THEM AND ASK. That simple. i did.

For Everyones Information...T-Mobile aka VoiceStream was the first US GSM network...AND they have more of their own owned network than any other US carrier. I used to work for Nokia (for 12 years) when VoiceStream was building their GSM network building and buying land for towers. Several of the other US carriers pay dearly every month to use the T-Mobile owned towers. GSM is the international standard in Europe, Australia and much of Asia and Africa...CDMA is proprietary American. A cell-phone carrier typically gets 832 radio frequencies to use in a city. Each cell phone uses two frequencies per call -- a duplex channel -- so there are typically 395 voice channels per carrier which are split among each cell. (The other 42 frequencies are used for control channels. Therefore, in a TDMA-based digital system can carry three times as many calls as an analog system, so each cell has about 168 channels available. In other words, in any one cell, 168 people can be talking on their cell phone at one time. After that you get dropped calls...not carrier specific either...

I don't know if you are going to read this post again, but could you forward that to all the CDMA haters out there. 3x as many calls at one time on a CDMA network compared to GSM. GSM is inefficient. But Don't worry GSM lovers, I anticipate in another 7-10 years, GSM and CDMA will both go away and be replaced with something better.

HTC phones are bad. They don't have a endurance. My HTC Wizard or AT&T 8525 stopped working after 1 year. It was not cover by warranty and AT&T does not offer insurance for phones. My friend purchased a 8125 along me, hers stopped working after 6 months and was replaced 3 times.... She ended up just settling with a Razr... Yes a Razr!! Just look at the Mogul...

wow well that may be user mandated, ive had htc phones for the past four years now and ive never had a problem with my mogul, however i do work for AT&T and i can understand the old 8125 having those issue that phone was terrible, along with the ppc670 or any other mobile that used wm5 didnt work to good. i had my ppc 6700 replaced 5 times luckily i had sprint and total equipment protection so they just would give me a new phone which was kewl, then after they discontinued the ppc 6700 and mines no longer worked they gave me the mogul for free. but AT&T now offers insurance on ALL devices including the tilt and i rarely have customers who have issues with the tilt as opposed to blackberrys which seem to be always having some type of defect even if the user is correctly using the device. WE LOVE YoU HTC!!!!!!!!!!1

acutally you can have insurance on any phone (xcept the iphone) as of june 3rd. deductible is 125 for pdas though

wow... a 125 deductable on a PDA... what about something crappy like a dash or a motorola Q? Insurance comapies should have a standard percentage value as the deductable... like 15% of the retail price or something. for 125.00 you can just extend your contract and get a newer model, unless you aren't eligible for an upgrade.

Other than by reading articles on other websites, does anyone know for sure if the HTC Touch Diamond will be hitting the CDMA-based carrier Sprint later this year (2008)?

Yeah it will hit Sprint somewhere in the forth quarter. My pops is an exec for HTC in the US so I know this for a fact...

T-Mobile Europe will be getting this phone, as for the US and UK it is unknown.

29. (unregistered) posted on 02 Jul 2008, 15:02 0 0

The pro camera also comes with a flash and the diamond does not.

As a matter of fact, Sprint is not getting the phone. It will be available only to T-mobile.
