This is the dumbest design ever!!!!
Why would you put the answer and call end buttons on the side where you normally hold the phone in your hand! You will constantly be hanging up on people. Just ridiculous!!!

Looks like HTC or maybe vzw are making a better effort to get thier branded phones out sooner

I played with one of these today.
It is very very nice.
Lots of great features.
The space key will take a little getting used to.
But all in all, it will be a great replacement for my aging Q9c

I say this is fake considering that date on the phone picture is still 2 weeks away.

It looks like the upgrade to the htc s640 up here that telus had. I don’t like it. Blackberry wanna be. I still like the touch pro2. Now that is a sick device.

Its too bad they released the diamond way to late seriously
Why on earth did it take them so long?

Um, i730, i830, i760, HTC 6700, HTC 6800, i770, Omnia, HTC Touch Pro, Touch Diamond…

Those are all verizon smartphones that have/had WiFi.

I think it’s cool that vzw has thier very own HTC, this won’t cost that much

Winmo std 6.1 or 6.5? My prototype Moto Napoleon (a4500) has a kick-ass keyboard but is otherwise the same phone, so I doubt this will make me switch.

Finally, Verizon getting some decent worldphones. The rest of them SUCK.

Notice the date on the screen of the phone: 6/15/09, could that be the release date?

Is it just me or is the keyboard design way off. How come the keys on the second row on the keyboard (asdf..etc) is slightly smaller then the qwerty…etc buttons above? why is the space button all the way towards the right when it should be in the middle!!!

FAIL

This looks terrible. I’m ready for something new and ground breaking. Come on Verizon step your game up! I’m sick of my Storm and I’m sure I’ll be sick of the Storm 2.

The HTC Snap/Ozone? Hero? T-Mobile G1? minor improvements to Touch Pro/Diamond?

Anyone else thinking HTC best design days are behind them? This thing is hideous, twenty steps back from where they were with the original Touch Diamond/Pro

I agree, it looks like a Centro.

Just because it will have vz navigator does not mean the gps will be locked. The storm has it and its god is not locked.

HTC original design owns this and Sprints with its curve and off-set keyboard, and just sleek design: http://www.devicewire.co.uk/htc-snap

This rendition looks bulky and unfinished.
