No word yet who's going to be marketing it in the US but I suspect it will be Verizon or Sprint since AT&T is doing the iPhone. GPS is an interesting addition. However, I'm always skeptical of cramming every possible function into a handheld device. I'm a big fan of <a href="http://www.jnd.org" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Don Norman</a>. Hi Keiron,

I'm holding out for the HTC Touch cruise I think at the minute, the HTC touch dual might have done it for me if hit had the GPS system!

I make use of the PDA functions a lot more than the phone functions. I'm vaguely anti-social. :) The HTC Touch Diamond phone looks rather impressive, but I still like my Wizard (Imate K-Jam) with it’s slide out keyboard.
