The HTC Touch Diamond is about the size of half a deck of playing cards. Users will be able to operate it with one hand while walking down the street. The Touch Diamond includes a circular navigation wheel to help consumers navigate its menus. HTC also layered its own TouchFLO 3D software over the Windows Mobile 6.1 operating system - to reach work email but also see an easily navigable interface. To encourage mobile Internet browsing, the Touch Diamond offers speedy upload and download connections, Wi-Fi and a glass screen with about four times better resolution than HTC's previous Touch phones. HTC improved touch screen innovation with its new 3D touch interface called TouchFLO 3D. TouchFLO 3D provides animated access to people, messaging, email, photos, music, weather and more. Users can zoom and pan Websites with one-hand and automatically view optimized content that fits the display. Turning the device sideways automatically rotates the web page view from a portrait to landscape view. The Touch Diamond includes a customized new YouTube application for watching videos as well as Google Maps for mobile for mapping and traffic data.
