Paul (MoDaCo) and I were able to spend quite some time playing with the HTC Touch Diamond today and between us we've come up with the following video demonstrating the device in action.
HTC Touch Diamond in action
I have a great deal of video left to process so you can expect to see more online in the coming days. We're still at the event and will shortly be heading off to for dinner so I'll be posting more when I return. Trying to get the balance between finding out the information and then finding the time to post and pass it on is tricky!

If would be nice to know if the D_pad is "only" a D-Pad or a wheel! I saw another video where it was used as a wheel for zooming in and out while on a web-page, but it would be perfect if it could be used in other applications as well. Nice video in any case and a very nice phone.

Excellent video, thank you.
Shame the messaging reverted to Windows Mobile.
Would love to see the on screen keyboards in use for entering text if you have any footage of that please?
Also, how quick does the camera app boot up?
My current HTC Wizard is shockingly slow.
If the on screen keyboard isn't great and the camera is slow I'm going to have to wait for the Sony Ericsson Xperia with it's sliding keyboard.
Will be interesting to see if the camera on that is still as quick as most SE phones as it'll now be running Windows Mobile.

many thanks for the video review
i recently purchased an xda orbit 2 which was brilliant in many ways.........except for one big issue.... you could not use the device outside. the legibillity was extremely poor so i had to sell it.
how does the touch diamond fair in direct sunlight, hope you get to find out because there is no way im parting with my cash again until i can find out.i wish more testers of phones would take this into consideration.
great video and thanks for all your hard work.
