Update: According to Vincent Nguyen the device will be available in Europe and Asia in June! UK = immediately? And rest of the world “later in the year.”

Update: First video is out, man is it grainy, but I’m sure we’ll see some more by the end of the day, watch it here.

Update: Boy Genius Report is also live blogging the event.

Update: Phone Mag has a HUGE gallery of high quality images taken at the event.

Update: Metric ass ton (technical term) of videos over at Crunch Gear. Horrible white noise issues.

Update: It runs Windows Mobile 6.1

Update: Engadget has even more photos and a complete spec sheet, quad band HSDPA?!

Update: HTC has their own YouTube channel with several videos of the Diamond and the new Touch Flo interface. This you want to check out.

    Just because they didn’t announce what you wanted them to announce doesn’t mean they didn’t make anything cool.

    I believe in Android as much as you do, and I too want to see the dream, but you have to remember the scope of this event.

    Honestly, I’m glad the phone sports windows mobile. I’m not really looking forward to the android operating system. What can I say, I’m a windows fan for life!

    Doesn’t mean I wouldn’t be checking into it. :D
