A diamond in my pocket

A couple of days ago I finally decided on a new cell phone. After looking at the iPhone 3G and the extreme monthly bills that choice would result in I chose one of the few alternatives out there in my opinion. The choice fell on the Touch diamond from HTC. After having it a couple of days now I feel really satisfied with my decision. Being an interface nerd I feel a bit disappointed with the “flow” of the TouchFLO interface but considering that the HTC interface runs on top of the not so designer friendly Windows Mobile 6.1 OS it is forgiven. The interface look real good from a glance but when you start interacting with it it feels a little bit sluggish and I feel that I´m going through an interaction learning period at the moment. Some interactions that I intuitively perform in a certain way does not really work in the touchFLO interface but I´m starting to learn which moves are that are best suited for my diamond. I also found a forum for tweaking the diamond in various way. Fun times ahead!
