The HTC Touch Diamond has been one of the most anticipated handsets since it was officially announced last May. Only the 3G iPhone has clearly surpassed it in terms of anticipation. It was rumored that Verizon and Sprint will offer the HTC Touch Pro in US soil. Prior rumors and announcements indicate that the HTC Touch Pro will be available in the third quarter. This makes the rumored release date of September 2 plausible.
The source of this info is apparently a slide or internal document that was leaked. The documents contained details and the release dates of several handsets that will be launched by Sprint. Here are the handsets that will be released in September according to the leaked document:
Sanyo Katana Eclipse
Motorola VE20 Vegas

Samsung m220
Samsung m320
Of course, the highlight of the list was the HTC Touch Diamond or the HTC 6950. The HTC Touch was designated as the HTC 6900. Since this info case from a leaked document, more confirmation is required. It's expected that the wireless network operator will make the official announcement in the next few weeks.
Here the expected specs and features of Sprint's upcoming HTC Touch Diamond:
101mm x 51mm x 14mm dimensions
