I just got a great email from an anonymous tipster with a few new diagrams of Verizon’s upcoming HTC Touch Diamond2. Though Verizon may be trying to pawn this new HTC handset off under the Diamond name, we already know that the HTC Whitestone has quite different. The Whitestone’s edges have been rounded out a lot more than the Diamond2’s and as we’ve noted before there’s a small kickstand prominently places on the back side of the handset. White the Touch Diamond2 has four buttons and a zoom bar featured on the front, the HTC Whitestone has sports an additional "Multimedia" button which pushed the Windows of Start button to the very middle of the button lineup. These hardware tweaks along with the 3.6" screen and 3.5mm headphone jack make it quite evident that the HTC Whitestone will be positioned as a heavyweight multimedia device.
I’m just hoping that when the HTC Whitestone launches on the Verizon network this fall that they stay clear of the Diamond name since it’s clearly in a completely different family. Hit the read more link to take a peak at the sides and bottom of the HTC Whitestone
Thanks anonymous tipster!
