According to our friends at Windows Mobile Italy the HTC Diamond will soon be available in a few more colours which should be a nice alternative to the already available Black and White. The colours available will be fuschia, brown, blue, purple, red and yellow. So if you like your phone to be as colourful as your personality your all sorted. Pictures after the break.
This rumour has been circulating for a while now but the noise is getting louder now. Macworld think Apple may be closing in on a deal with Carphone Warehouse under which the latter firm will begin selling Macs in-store across the UK. AppleInsider is also claiming that Mac-related ‘placeholder’ items have appeared within the Carphone Warehouse internal computer system, prompting speculation on an such a deal. For me this would make perfect sense, Apple do not have enough stores in the UK so this would be a great way for them to hit the high street and this would also enable Carphone Warehouse to offer big discounts on MacBooks if bought with a Mobile Broadband contract.

Want to have a closer look at the Android OS in action, T-Mobile have just posted a web page with an emulated G1 to have a click around. It is a bit limited in functionality but you can see what some of the interface is going to look like. They have also posted a page with a 360 degree look around the phone and you can event flip the keyboard up and down. Here is the link if you want to take a look.
If your a fan of Windows Mobile I am sure Coolsmartphone.com is on your regular read list, it certainly is on mine, anyway they have had horrendous problems with an attack which has ended up were Google have pretty much knocked them off the internet. Any search you do in Google that returns a Coolsmartphone page will have a horrible message under it saying, "This site may harm your computer". Leigh has worked tirelessly to remove the problem and now reports all is well. You can read the full explanation after the break.
HTC via their Twitter updates have confirmed that "we have no plans for a US 3G version of the HD at this time" in a separate tweet they did say "We can’t promise the US will get a phone similar to the HD, only hope along with you that the possibility exists."

Mobility Today has posted a video with a look at the Touch HD. It’s quite short and spends most of its time in landscape. It’s a nice advert but really doesn’t cover too many of the questions we are all asking. Check the link after the break.
