HTC unveils new HTC Touch Diamond, “not too big, not too small”

Here we are in London at the Soho Hotel with HTC, and we are among the first to see their new Diamond handset. While we thought we may see three new products in three different form factors, HTC Prez and CEO Peter Chou led-off the event by mentioning that they would be launching just “one” product today. He peppered his intro by talking about the Touch, so we were prepared to see an update on that product utilizing their TouchFLO tech.
The device has some pretty nice interface tech that they’re calling TouchFLO 3D, with elements similar to Apple’s CoverFlow swipe tech. They emphasized web accessibility and zoom-in navigation with “just one hand” and not too many fingers, a clear swipe at the iPhone.
As expected, the Diamond is loaded with prettiness and specs, including (coming as we get them, so refresh for more, including pics!):
Quad-band HSDPA 7.2
