This seems a step backwards from my HTC's Touch HD, worse camera, worse specs, more buttons... Seems just like the old touch cruise with some (bad) make up on; come to think seems a step backwards also compared to HTC's diamond and Pro, the latter of which I had for a couple of weeks and hated for it's small and inadequate touch screen. Now I've had the touch HD for a couple of months and I can really tell you: HTC has got a real winner here, so what's the point in coming out with this...this?
Ah, but the Touch HD is supposed to be the top-of-the-range model from HTC; the Iolite is specced for those people who have better things to do than sit on the bleeding edge - you know, the people that you yourself have no time for whatsoever.

It looks like the new T-Mobile Shadow in a different casing so they can capitalize on the mass orders of internal components from T-Mob.
