Have to say, after just under a month now with the Diamond, it really is a fantastic little phone. Having been an owner of previous HTC "chunky" devices (with keyboards, such as the Tilt), it's nice to have such a slim, light, device. The battery life hasn't been an issue so far (I have a charger and car mount in my car so I plug it in when I'm using it as my car's MP3 player/GPS) but, I'm sure I'd pick up this pack when its released for less convenient days. Great phone though. For me, this has the iPhone beat in nearly every way - my only grumbles are: the camera is still not amazing (but still better than the iPhone), the interface can sometimes be laggy if there's too much running and a bigger HD might have been nice, but on the whole, this phone overdelivered for me. In fact, three of my friends have bought one this week, although the tipping point for them was the Teeter game. Go figure.
