CNET Asia has some photos of the HTC Touch HD as compared to the Touch Diamond and Touch Pro handsets. While the Touch HD may look monstrous, keep in mind that the Diamond is almost deceptively small. Same for the Pro, except that its slide-out keyboard gives it a fair amount of extra thickness.
That, my friends, is a pretty gorgeous looking screen at 800×480. That’s the same screen resolution as the 7-inch Eee PC! The Touch HD’s screen, though, is 3.8 inches diagonally. Yum.
And here’s an in-hand shot. I’m hoping that the guy who took the photo has small hands. The Touch HD’s dimensions at 4.35 x 2.5 x .47 inches. I just measured my iPod Touch and it has almost the exact same dimensions except that it’s thinner at .25 inches. It doesn’t look quite as unwieldy in my hand. Example:
So there you have it. More photos over at CNET Asia.

I’m not sure my maths is spot on, but I think that screen is getting on for 250ppi. I’m not sure human eyes can even see that much resolution! Does the browser have Flash and JScript support?
that is so freaking amazing. I honestly want something beside the iphone. (also that is ACTUAL better than the iphone.) I own the iphone and I just hate the fact everyone has it… and everyone who does simply is a cocky mofo.
That is exactly what I want (provided it doesn’t get crippled by the carriers). Ideally, I want this available to SERO plan customers on Sprint; if that becomes a reality, this is my next phone.
Will Sprint carry it?
sounds good.
I agree, thanks for the article!
