The Sprint HTC Touch Pro DOES have WIFI.

No Wifi? That’s a deal breaker for me. How can the diamond have wifi but the pro doesn’t? Makes no sense to me!

Hi Riley,

I wondered if you might have picked up on how Telus have made the TouchDual different from other operators.

They’ve pre-loaded it with “Quick Find”, a re-branding of Zi Corp’s Qix, which basically replaces the usual in-built dialler application. Have you come across this before?

Just talked to a Telus rep at cityplace… they had one of these out.. He said that they are not selling them until november 7th however. He also said that there is no wifi in it. Gah!

I’m curious…will Best Buy be offering either the Touch Diamond or Pro as a subsidized phone with a plan via Sprint…or will they just stock the unlocked versions?

I think every carrier should have this phone by now. It has been out waaaayy too long and even the TouchHD is already out. Come on people

I was looking at the HTC touch pro, and comparing it to the xperia x1, which I have been contemplating, and I must admit the full keyboard is an enticing change from qwerty.

My brother just bought an HTC Touch Diamond unlocked today… I thought the back would be far more contoured based on the pics, but it’s not bad at all. The phone is actually suh-weeeet.
