HTC Touch Diamond

It’s not too often you come across a product that could give Apple’s iPhone a run for its money in the style quotient but HTC Touch Diamond is one of the rare products which really does this.

Its major asset is not style though; it is its touch sensitive screen. It has a 2.8 VGA touchscreen monitor of excellent quality, even allowing the smallest characters to be seen with clarity, thus enabling easy and smooth

reading of documents. TouchFLO 3D, the 3D Touch interface of the HTC, facilitates touchscreen navigation to a large extent, enabling you to perform many functions with a 3D motion. For example, you can switch the icons around by moving your finger over them. It is also very easy to scroll through your contacts in the phonebook by simply moving your finger up and down which selects the next or previous contact. You can quickly scroll through the contacts by simply moving the finger up and down, a godsend feature for your father, who happens to have an astronomical contacts list and has to deal with time-crunch.

Not only is it elegant, it’s packed with an array of networking features- WiFi, Bluetooth, USB, EDGE and GPRS, rest assured your father won’t ever have any hassles transferring data. With dimensions of 4 x 2 x 0.44 inches, it’s a very pocketable piece; with its weight being quite light too. It has an email functionality that’ll allow your frequent-flyer father to access email while traveling too. HTC has a customized Mobile web browser that enables easy viewing and effortless navigation of Websites in the way they are designed to be viewed on a PC.
