The HTC Touch Diamond is the mobile equivalent of the mullet in its fashion heyday (ie. good). There's the business at the front with Windows 6.1 and its compatibility
with office docs. Then, there's the party at the back in the form of its novel, if a little out-there, design and a host of nifty software. Finding your way around might confuse at first, and the
touch screen can prove sluggish, but the stylus is a godsend. The headphones are good quality, but the proprietary connector niggles - as does the lack of support for additional memory. But the
built-in accelerometer and haptic feedback during gaming do provide glee. Apple needn't quake in its boots just yet, but HTC's 110g, 3.2 MP camera-wielding brainchild is worth considering as an
alternative. If you're into the whole touching thing that is.
