Lets Get Touchy

US 2008 24 012

Keeping with the motto of purchasing all things sexy, here’s another addition to my personal gadget store. And yes, like all others this one has a name too. So without further a due, boys and girls, I present to you Touchy aka The HTC Touch Diamond.

Why Touchy? Simply because it seems very much in-sync with my personal element – of being touchy (emotionally that is, not otherwise….dirty minds I tell ya).

Okay…now with digressing any further, here is the Touchy brief-up.

I had been eyeing this black beauty since June. The only two things keeping me at bay were,

a) The price at which it was being offered on eBay - $650 (unlocked). Too steep considering I bought my iPhone (First Generation) last December for $500 with delivery.

b) iPhone was doing all the jobs, desired and needed.

But if you have a roving eye like mine, investing too much time on a single object is next to impossible and very much against the rules. And so, now with all the time in the world I practically committed 20 hours (overall) on eBay Auctions – and – managed to grab this sexy mama for $520 (unlocked) with delivery in NYC.

So the next very obvious question is whether the month’s of hard earned (and miraculously saved up) PayPal money worth the investment?

Though its too early to answer this since I got the package only this afternoon. However the initial picture is as gorgeous as anticipated – the Diamond is small, sleek and light – in two words, super sexy.

Till the time I get ready with the full-fledged review, I leave you with some pictures of my spanking new baby. So go suckers, burn…burn and burn.

Ps – Next stop, HTC Touch HD. I know some folks are flipping over the Google Android but seriously guys, in my opinion the handset in appearance is butt ugly.

As a rule I don’t sell my gadgets. Even if used for a little while or totally hopeless, I find it too hard to pass them off. So the iPhone stays very much put. :)

IdeaSmith : Last time round people complained of dirty nails, and so this time I took extra care and got the best manicured hands in NYC. Needless to say the dent in my pocket only got deeper. ;)
