If Apple’s iPhone comes in both black and white and if Samsung’s Omnia comes in black and white, why shouldn’t HTC’s Touch Diamond be any different?

So did you have a chance to inspect a Sprint store? Asked around about the HTC? What did you think? Are you waiting for the new HTC devices we’ve just seen today?

Don’t get your hopes up, the K850i will STILL be black. However, the trimmings at the sides will be changed from the erstwhile two editions, Velvet Blue and Luminous Green, into silver. The name of the new K850i release is the Quicksilver (how apt).
