But it -is- on that list. It’s the very last item.

What a stupid comment to make on a site dedicated so such discussion. In case you can’t figure this out for yourself, the day you get tired of reading this site, just stop typing it in your browser window.

Come on Verizon I desperately need a new phone. Looks like its down to a race between the Storm(11/21) and the Omnia(?)…

Is it easy to change the ATT background on the HTC Touch Pro to its original black background such as sported on the Sprint version?

@Scott: I wonder if the push-back is to try to fix issues that the CDMA Diamond has had on Sprint?

Oh, who am I kidding, it’s obviously so they can find new and interesting ways to cripple it, out of sheer hatred for the consumer.

@ Chris Meyers…don’t bother with them then…let alone caring enough to comment…I was looking forward to this but it never materialized…and then the Storm hit!

Not a huge loss. The CDMA Touch Diamond doesn’t run very good at all. Plus unless HTC has solved the issues of the battery being bigger the VZW model won’t have the sexy diamond cut back like its gsm counterpart…

um, i personally love tech websites still. The Boy Genius’s former site, Engadget, this, and many other still offer great technology news

Does anyone know if verizon is going to keep the original back, or have the same back as the CDMA sprint diamond? im probably leaning towards sprints design, which is too bad, i think it takes away from the phone

Does anyone know how Verizons Touch Pro is supposed to look like? The original diamond back or some ugly castrate like Sprint has produced. Just try to figure if the wait is worth wile after all …..

LOL These gadget sites are all of the same pattern the last few years. Supposedly “exciting” product is previewed, product is talked about and analyzed to death, hype is created amongst the dorks who read these sites, product is ultimately delayed 100 times if it indeed ever comes out. Anybody else getting bored of these sites? Nothing is really exciting anymore. And most things that are hyped up in pictures and words are ultimately lame in person and/ or come out a year later.

That sucks… Hope this isn’t true for the Verizon Wireless faithful’s sake.
