HTC Diamond2 and Touch Pro2

What do you know, I thought every single Windows Mobile device ships with handwriting recognition capability. Apparently, I was wrong as I caught an item from HTC’s support saying that the mentioned functionality has been added for two of their WinMo smartphones – Diamond2 and Touch Pro2.

Of course, an update is needed, but it shouldn’t be a pain. Simple follow these two links (for Diamond2, and for Touch Pro2) and follow instructions provided on the screen. It’s that easy. ;)

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.

    OK that is OK if you Diamond 2 Touch Input for Pocket is equal to Version 2.1 (Build1919.1320), or lower.
    What happens if it is higher?? Touch Input for Pocket is equal to Version 2.1 (Build1922.3329).
