HTC Diamond...oops

I was following CSM's coverage of the HTC launch today and it is funny that yesterday they were calling it the "iPhone killer" and after the launch that had slipped back to "iPhone challenger". So guys, which is it? Sounds like they are now not so sure themselves.

It looks like a fantastic toy with a couple of possible flaws...only 4gb of internal storage (when the iPhone is now virtually minimum 16gb) and NO external sd card capability says to me...mistake...and add in the small 900amh battery and it makes you wonder if what looks like a small battery on paper will be able to cope with the heavy duty specs and swishy swooshy interface. You would like to think that HTC have done their homework and after testing have opined that the battery will be suitable for what looks like their flagship device.

The Diamond-esque back looks a bit naffy to me. However, from the available youtube vids it looks like HTC have taken the "Touch" interflow and raised the bar a considerable few notches, if it works as good as it looks then wow..

Perhaps a more appropriate title would be "Sony Experia challenger".
