I Like the Original Back Better!!! Now it should be called the HTC BURGUNDY

Agree with you. May be we can request a name change here

Im sure once the phone has been out for a few weeks, several different back will be available. I myself like the flat back as ive read many people complaining that the phone wont lay flat on a table as well as the back becoming worn and faded after a few weeks

The gsm variant is nice, however dont knock the red till you have see i in person its very sharp. Plus if you dont like sprints red, wait to see what color vzw gets...

Good buy tmobile.... Hello Sprint

How about just goodbye tmobile and Sprint, sprint is going under cause they can never make enough, and they fire CEOs left and right.

how about goodbye verizon and att data cards, with wimax rolling out... half the price for twice the speed... i think thatll help cover "making enough" money for the future... you fanboys make me sick...

sprint aint going no where i work for sprint i myself activated atleast 600 instincts since june by myself. turning around next quarter.

oh please.. WiMax?? you mean like their partner Clearwire that can't even get it to work while in a car or train? (check engagdet)Yeah, sounds great!! Nevermind the fact that WiMax has almost zero coverage, works terrible without LOS, oh and is slower than 7.2 HSDPA. They should work on sticking with EvDo or moving to LTE like everyone else.. Sprint is spiraling with just the bottom speeding towards them

Own a couple of Sprint dealers and had mine direct shipped last week! What a piece of technological goodness (other than WinMo)! It is @#$%^& awesome and even WinMo can't ruin this beautiful beast.

screw this phone...the iphone is the greatest invention EVER!!!!!!!!!!

9. (unregistered) posted on 29 Sep 2008, 16:16

yeah, because crashing, freezing, no removeable battery, no copy and paste, improper data speeds, no audio turn-by-turn, no live tv, and no open source.... thats the definition of "greatest invention ever".... the diamond is the exact opposite... try again you insane apple fanboy...

Does anyone know if you can activate this phone on any Sprint plan or will you have to change. I am eligible for an upgrade i just finished my 2 year contract in June. I tried to get the Samsung Instinct and they said i have to switch to the Everything Plan. Will The Diamond be the same? Please Help!!!
