Youtube user Palmsolo posted this, a quick look at the Ipaq 910, but its a full 11 minute examination of a rather recent phone. Its hardly spectular however HP seem to like to put fairly beefy processors in their devices, so it may push some boundaries. The reviewer also points out some of the bugs.
Pocketnow have posted a video glossing over the Toshiba G910. Looks like a nice phone and in comparison to everything that seems to be coming out over the next month it looks nicely unconventional.
Tracy and Matt have reported that the Diamond will not be available to business users. It isn’t suitable. Why? Battery life? Touch3D too cool?
The first thing I read about the Diamond way back when was the idea that when your phone rings and The A Team theme blares out in meetings you can simply flip it over and it would shut up. Sounds like HTC had business users in mind when they invented.
Who knows, maybe they will push the Diamond as their fun phone and the Touch Pro as the professional model, if they agree to stock it.

Despite the flurry of all the iPhone related news, there is other news around today. Its Windows Sideshow gadgets. It would be awesome to view Media Centre content on your Windows mobile device. Guess what? You might be able to some day. Probably very slowly if the integrated Media Centre on the Xbox 360 is anything to go by. But who knows, it might work well and revolutionise your need to onboard storage and syncing.
The Unwired has all the biz over there.
O2 today announced that Apple’s highly anticipated iPhone 3G will go on general sale from 8.02am on Friday 11 July in O2, Apple and Carphone Warehouse retail stores*. To ensure fairness, O2 will sell the device on a strictly first come, first served basis to both new and upgrading customers in all retail outlets.
