Telus to start selling HTC Touch Diamond on August 14thWe’ve already reported Telus will be adding the HTC Touch Diamond and now we know the exact release date. It’s set for August 14th when our Canadian readers will be able to grab the all-touchscreen Windows Mobile 6.1 based smartphone for CA$149.99 on a three-year contract. The price, naturally, goes up with shorter term agreements and ends at CA$449.99 sans any contracts.

As for the compatible services, the HTC Touch Diamond will work with TELUS mobile email, TELUS Navigator and TELUS Applications Storefront – Pocket Express…

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.

    This is certainly a better alternative to the Samsung Instinct available today at Bell Wireless. The HTC Diamond is an attractive feature-packed device that gained tremendous internet media attention. And it certainly got my attention as well from the day it was released. There isn’t a Windows Mobile device on the market today that looked or performed better than the HTC Diamond. As for me, I am anxiously waiting for the HTC Diamond Pro.

    Well, today is the 14th, and I just confirmed with my local Telus store that they are NOT available, even though they are apparently “on their way.” I couldn’t get any specific date beyond that.
