And im not impressed, i can youtube already on my phone, i would like if it had a rewind feature, i hate watching youtube and cant go back.
Its sad that from here on out every single phone will try to be like the iphone. Wouldnt that just make people want an iphone more? This has all been done before with this phone called Iphone® made by a company called Apple® you should check it out.... this Diamond Touch is nothing that hasnt been done before. "For peat sake" go out and buy an iphone! I am!

Yes I've played with my mates iPhone, it was nice, slick and I wont deny was a nice phone but come on your starting to sound like Steve with all those copyright logos
Lets be nice guys. All i was addressing was, how many phones came out ever since the iphone, that didnt remind you in some way of the iphone? This Diamond is nice and all. I just see a wannabee iphone. Not being mean just saying. So please, lets respect each others comments.

Actually, I think the iPhone took a lot from older HTC phones and put it in their own package.
awww get off his back
he said nothing offensive...nor did he put anyone or anything "down"....just stated his opinion...to which he is entitled....that said...I agree that the apple more or less tends to miss quite a bit of what a ppc can do....even after it goes 3g there will be much to be desired.....just my opinion

I understand what you are talking. In my opinion, Iphone also trying to be more like windows. Apple tried very hard to add Microsoft office into their phone. And they also start to open their app to 3rd party (windows had done it long time ago). I think that each phone is trying to add as much as ability they can to become the most powerful phone. It is hard to say which phone copy which phone.
i think we shouldnt start the old iphone discussion again, but:
The iphone was more innovative than any other phone. Appel was the first that realised that mobile Internet will be the future.
But i wont even buy a iphone, okay
But what the hell did htc with windows mobile, its unbelievable and great, so please hack that **** and make me cab or buy me a Diamond
oh i forgot, make some drivers for mit touchcruise too, because i cant wait 1 hour for reading a email

Holy crap! Apple invented mobile internet!!
IMO....
I don't think it wants to be an iPhone but an iPhone killer. Personally I (for the first time) skipped a generation and didn't get a Kaiser upgrade from my Hermes (AT&T branded) as it didn't seem as impressive as the upgrade from my Wizard to the Hermes... actually my Wizard from the Blue Angel was the most impressive jump, then I met Jose Faria ...
The HTC Raphael (Diamond with a keyboard) is definitely worth the wait I believe.
As for the iPhone, big deal. To me it's just an iPod that can phone home. The browser IS nice but that's about it. As a phone it sucks. Edge sucks. No DirectPush email sucks (so what that it'll be available in June or so they say) And the lack of a real keyboard.... SUCKS! Very few people I know are really happy with their iPhones, but then that's probably just the crowd I hang with...
Just my two cents ...

simply no
their have been a handful of phones that try to imitate iphone... but the majority that dont far outway the majority that do...
simply put i think users want to imitate the iphone more so than the companies
Personally I believe discussing which phone is best, without specifying your needs, is pointless because it's all due to perspective. However, as far as "comapny's and people trying to imitate." Thank god they are! That's the type of competitive marketing that brings new ideas and technology. Hell, that's why the iPhone is here. So please stop complaining "Th3yr try1ng t0 b3 li3k if0ne!" because after all, the PS3 is just trying to be like Atari!
That being said, I am more interested in the Raphael than the Diamond. I wasn't impressed with trying to use the OEM keyboard on the Touch, so unless they fix that, I'm loving my QWERTY. Although, if they fix it, it WOULD be nice to be able to type single-handedly..

Yay guys, Our beloved HD2 beats the contenders in Gadget Show's test.
John Bentley even adding codicil that, as well as being a potential iPhone beater, the hardware is superior
I love this phone

Ouch...the Nexus One took a panning
Considering how Apple biased these guys are, I think they must have been very impressed with the HD2. For me, the HD2 is the best phone available at the moment.

Also bearing in mind the review focused on two of the 'weaker' aspects of the HD2, the camera and text input, it just shows how good the HD2 really is (I personally think the camera is very good, up with my Ignito/Diamond if not better, and once I installed Swype - wow fantastic!)
I haven't had a single crash, no obvious issues with my 1.48 ROM + camera fix, totally happy so far

the region restricted video content has not been in place long. can't see the point of a site like others that restrict viewing to the UK where it airs anyway.
I always thought that the Gadget show was sponsored by Apple as they are so biased!
One thing though...Why didn't they include the Iphone as part of the tests?? surely that would have been a fair comparison....Well we all know that the Iphone would have been knocked off it's perch and they wouldn't want to show that!

Net Neutrality, Google's deal with Verizon [Android unrelated]

You only need to read the first 3 paragraphs below to get the idea, but Google and Verizon are talking about a deal to throttle internet speeds to websites that can pay more money.
Anyways, here's a link to a pre-made email to send, all you have to do is put some info in. http://freepr.es/bXFB7i
I don't really want to sound like I'm some spokesperson about net neutrality, I just agree with it, and I think this is a bad deal, so I'm trying to get the word out best way I know.
Google is about to cut a deal with Verizon that would end the Internet as we know it.
According to a front-page New York Times story, the deal allows “Verizon to speed some online content to Internet users more quickly if the content's creators are willing to pay for the privilege."
It would create fast Internet lanes for the largest corporations and slow lanes for the rest of us.
That’s why we’re starting a mass protest by Google users to stop these two companies from joining forces to sell out millions of people like us who use the Internet.
If Millions Join Our Call, We Can Stop this Deal: Tell Google, “Don’t Be Evil"
Google’s motto is supposed to be “Don’t Be Evil.” But this deal puts the company in bed with the devil.
From the beginning, the Internet has been a level playing field that allows everyone to connect to one another and the world of content available online -- whether it's ABC News or your cousin’s wedding video. There’s only one Internet, and it shouldn’t matter who your provider is or whether you're logging on from home or your cell phone.
This deal will change all of that, allowing Google and Verizon to pick what websites you can see over others. The result couldn't be bleaker for the future of the Internet and for free speech and independent voices online.
Founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin created Google to make information freely available to everyone online. But this deal is a complete reversal that abandons their core principles:
Sign this letter and tell Google’s founders:
“Your Verizon deal IS evil, and it must be stopped.”
It’s up to the millions of people who use Google every day to tell the company to do the right thing.
Google must walk away from this bad deal, and make sure Internet users everywhere can enjoy the entire open Internet wherever, whenever and however they want.

I havent had a chance to really dig into this but if it is as the couple stories I have read about it suggest this is not good.
Net Neutrality has been a big issue for awhile now. Google was known for fighting for it. That's why this was such a big deal. Turns out it to be false.
if this is true it could very well be android related as Verizon could shut HTC and other manufacturers out. i would like a more firm statement from them

They could I suppose, but HTC makes phones for them too, and they could probably afford to have the speed increase if this were true. I don't know why Verizon would do that.
I don't follow news very well, but it looks like both Google, and Verizon, have denied this.
I haven't read into it much, but sounds like it's false. I'm glad Google is fighting for net neutrality, which is why when I heard about this alleged deal, I was upset at Google.

Good luck. Didn't we just see the news that Android is killing the other mobile platforms in sales? I still believe in Google. They fought against Apple and MS, and now they're taking serious ground. They'll do the same if they meet opposition from another front. But, yes, they do need to state their position unequivocally and officially.

Nexus One Shown In Disney Channel Commercial!?!?!

So... My daughter was just watching Disney channel and all of the sudden it goes on commercial. Then, they are advertising some sort of membership and say to text yada yada to yada yada in order to sign up and the phone they showed was clearly a NEXUS ONE! It had the trackball shining. Just sort of surprised me that they would show that over an iPhone or something that kids might recognize more lol.
I would love to see photos of this. hahaha
On Fox35 News here in Orlando, FL they were showing an Android app a local guy developed that enables you to pay participating stores via text and they were showing him showing how the app worked and he was using an N1.

Also tried jailbreaking all devices in the store, but I think Apple blocked the site (on wifi and "3G").

HTCSense.com & Picasa PlugIn - Update from HTC

I emailed HTC regarding the Picasa Web Albums plugin not working correctly on my DHD. I get the error message advising my Google account is not linked to Picasa Web Albums, which it is!
Anyway, they replied to me with the below email and thought i should share this.
Dear scotia_rfc,
Hello scotia_rfc and thank you for getting in touch with us about Picasa and HTC Sense.com
Just to let you know that the problem is not with your device or your Google account or even the Picasa applications, but with HTC Sense.com
The problem with HTC Sense.com is that it is not yet a fully functioning website and the facilities on it are relatively unstable and constantly being turned off as and when the IT gurus need to play with the coding.
HTC have decided that they would allow the public access to the website so that they could see it and get used to the new functions and facilities provided by the website.
I do apologise if this has caused you any inconvenience and I have already escalated this issue up to our Marketing and Development team for investigation.
I hope that this has answered your questions, if you have any more problems or questions in the future please do not hesitate in getting in touch with us again.
All the best,
Carl.

Thanks for the info. That's quite interesting, but good of them to admit that it is really a beta and not the final product.

All very well being honest about the website issues but it shouldn't have been launched if it's not ready for primetime.

That's not a smart thing to say for HTC. The Desire HD and Desire Z / G2 were advertised heavily with the HTCSense.com website and all that had to offer, the main benefit to me being security and additional widgets from HTC at a later date, and now some CS guy says, "Sorry, yeah, it's beta so it's to be expected"? I don't buy that one bit.

If they are "allowing us to see what i looks like" then they shouldn't be advertising this as feature. I'm sure we could all demand a refund as we have been sold something that doesn't work.
What total crap, of course they haven't allowed us to see what it looks like. It just doesn't work!

Just not a perpetual Beta like some of the old Google sites used to be, remember how Google docs was beta for what seemed like forever.
Omg you guys are like vultures, HTC has neva hid or denied the fact that sence.com and HTC Hub is in beta, WTF is all ur problems? Do people have a go at microsoft when they release an alpha, beta or rc version of windows. Just cuz everything dosent work? Talk about ungrateful

Last time I looked HTC weren't advertising HTCSense.com as a beta service - in fact the service is central to their marketing for this device. To claim otherwise is just retarded.
HTC have only fessed up under pressure from disappointed users. Seekdroid FTW btw.

Would you prefer it if HTC didnt do a public beta? They could do an inhouse beta, and when sence.com is ready next year, they could release it for the new devices, obviously the DHD wouldnt be one of thoes devices! Atleast by being the testers we are ensuring that we will get the full version of sence.com when it goes final....

But that's the point: HTCSense is being marketed as a live service - not a beta - and is clearly defective.

No but they at least have the curtesy to market it as beta. No where on htcs site does it say BETA. In fact its pretty much the pillar of there marketing for the DHD.
