a rumor, other cell phone makers are already updating their “iPhone killers.”
In a move similar to what happened last year, HTC unveiled HTC Touch Diamond,
the new 3G version of its HTC Touch.
Lat year, HTC Touch was unveiled on June 4, a month ahead of
the official launch of the iPhone.
As to technical specs, HTC Touch Diamond offers a 2.8” LCD

Microsoft has quickly shot down rumors that it plans to embed content filtering in its Zune gadgets. Several Internet news publications, including The New York Times, have said that Microsoft is going to implement a so-called "copyright cop" technology into its Zunes which would prevent playback of unauthorized copies of video files on them.

The Zune update is expected to transform Microsoft’s product in a serious competitor for Apple’s portable media player. With only 4 % of the market, a new set of add-ons was highly needed. After the announcement made Monday about the 800 downloadable episodes, including popular titles such as COMEDY CENTRAL’s “South Park,” MTV’s “The Hills,” NBC’s “The Office” or “Heroes,” SCI FI Channel’s “Battlestar Galactica,” Starz’s “Ghost in the Shell,” UFC’s “The Ultimate Fighter” or VH1’s “Rock of Love,” which will be available for $1,99 each, a new feature for the software might further boost the...
