HTC Touch Diamond with US 3G support hits the FCC
It looks like good things come to those will a little patience when it comes to a US-based 3G capable Touch Diamond. We had recently seen a home-brewed ROM update that enabled the 850Mhz frequency on the euro-spec’d Touch Diamond, only to have HTC issue an official update that offered EDGE support over the 850Mhz band. That by itself was good news, but still not what many had been hoping for, however that has recently surfaced at the FCC.
That’s right a US 3G capable Touch Diamond has recently been given the seal of approval from the FCC. Of course we are still not sure when this will make its way to an available status, or even how much it will retail for, but that should all come in time. For now at least we can be sure its coming.
Just to recap some of the features, the Touch Diamond offers a 2.8-inch VGA (480 × 640) touchscreen display, a 3.2-megapixel auto-focus camera on the rear with a VGA camera on the front, Bluetooth 2.0 + EDR, Wi-Fi, eGPS, orientation sensor and an FM radio. It is powered by a 528MHz Qualcomm MSM 7201A processor and is running Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional with the TouchFLO 3D interface. The Touch Diamond also has 256MB ROM / 192MB RAM, 4GB of internal storage and a microSDHC card slot for additional storage.

Release date not known. Not good enough. I am already waiting for Starcraft II and Diablo III so waiting indefinitely for this touch diamond would be out of the question.
