This is DEFINITELY the BEST phone to land this year (Until the Touch Pro). I'm sure that there will not be a line of dumbasses around the block waiting for the store to open. But those of us who were brave enough to stick with Sprint's sorry ass will be walking past all of you glorified iPod owners petting "The Precious", and laughing while watching you try to make a call. See what you get for disobeying one of the Ten Commandments. Thou Shall Have No Other God... A.K.A. Thou Shall Not Worship Fruit!]]>Aug 31st 2008 1:20AMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2008/08/30/sprint-bluefish-taking-names-for-touch-diamond-september-relea/http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/08/30/sprint-bluefish-taking-names-for-touch-diamond-september-relea/Aug 31st 2008 10:23AMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2008/08/30/sprint-bluefish-taking-names-for-touch-diamond-september-relea/http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/08/30/sprint-bluefish-taking-names-for-touch-diamond-september-relea/Aug 31st 2008 1:39AMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2008/08/30/sprint-bluefish-taking-names-for-touch-diamond-september-relea/http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/08/30/sprint-bluefish-taking-names-for-touch-diamond-september-relea/Aug 31st 2008 1:41AMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2008/08/30/sprint-bluefish-taking-names-for-touch-diamond-september-relea/http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/08/30/sprint-bluefish-taking-names-for-touch-diamond-september-relea/Aug 31st 2008 2:01AMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2008/08/30/sprint-bluefish-taking-names-for-touch-diamond-september-relea/http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/08/30/sprint-bluefish-taking-names-for-touch-diamond-september-relea/Aug 31st 2008 2:03AMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2008/08/30/sprint-bluefish-taking-names-for-touch-diamond-september-relea/http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/08/30/sprint-bluefish-taking-names-for-touch-diamond-september-relea/

Then , as soon as one of those shows up in Yurop I´ll pension my N95, but not before.
Surely not for a substandard AGPS , a puny 3Mpix camera, 4 GB of non expandable memory and an awkward UI.
I dunno about the touch pro but when finally it will come out it will surely have a tough time cutting out some space for itself against the competition.]]>Aug 31st 2008 3:10PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2008/08/30/sprint-bluefish-taking-names-for-touch-diamond-september-relea/http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/08/30/sprint-bluefish-taking-names-for-touch-diamond-september-relea/
Both touches have better hardware, better interfaces, better software, and better build quality. The x1 is a buggy piece of poorly built **** which has been delayed until next year, and if you think the touch diamond UI is awkward then you have never used one, it's smooth, intuative and it works.]]>Sep 1st 2008 10:21AMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2008/08/30/sprint-bluefish-taking-names-for-touch-diamond-september-relea/http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/08/30/sprint-bluefish-taking-names-for-touch-diamond-september-relea/Sep 1st 2008 10:24AMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2008/08/30/sprint-bluefish-taking-names-for-touch-diamond-september-relea/http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/08/30/sprint-bluefish-taking-names-for-touch-diamond-september-relea/
Cannibalization anyone?

I mean they are about as different as possible while still sharing a common feature (WM)]]>Sep 1st 2008 1:42PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2008/08/30/sprint-bluefish-taking-names-for-touch-diamond-september-relea/http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/08/30/sprint-bluefish-taking-names-for-touch-diamond-september-relea/
But, if they were then AT&T would be well-served to release multiple smartphones, provided each phone offers different benefits to the consumer. If you offer three of the same phone then yes, that would be a waste. The treo 800W has a different form-factor (some folks don't want a slide-out qwerty), the Touch Diamond has no keyboard but does have TouchFlo 3D, the Touch Pro has the interface AND slide-out qwerty...and the X1 (whenever it arrives) has a (slightly different 4-line) qwerty and panels interface. You really do have your pick as a consumer. ]]>Sep 1st 2008 12:37PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2008/08/30/sprint-bluefish-taking-names-for-touch-diamond-september-relea/http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/08/30/sprint-bluefish-taking-names-for-touch-diamond-september-relea/
Most simple folk like me probably figure that it would definitely take a genius to work AT&T and GSM into a conversation about Sprint phone models and cannibalization amongst Sprint sales. :-)]]>Sep 2nd 2008 10:38AMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2008/08/30/sprint-bluefish-taking-names-for-touch-diamond-september-relea/http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/08/30/sprint-bluefish-taking-names-for-touch-diamond-september-relea/Sep 2nd 2008 11:29PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2008/08/30/sprint-bluefish-taking-names-for-touch-diamond-september-relea/http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/08/30/sprint-bluefish-taking-names-for-touch-diamond-september-relea/Sep 2nd 2008 1:18PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2008/08/30/sprint-bluefish-taking-names-for-touch-diamond-september-relea/http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/08/30/sprint-bluefish-taking-names-for-touch-diamond-september-relea/Sep 4th 2008 4:02PM
