The perfect Batphone?
Could Batman use a touch-screen phone with his Batgloves? That has yet to be determined, but in terms of its sheer looks (and flashy ad campaign), the HTC Touch Diamond looks to be a perfect fit for Bruce Wayne's alter ego. It'll take a trans-Pacific journey via Batmobile and Batboat to pick one up -- they're available only in Taiwan -- but this sleek 3G Windows Mobile phone has an amazing screen to accompany its 3.2-megapixel autofocus camera, plus Internet Explorer and Opera for browsing the Web (what, no Fireflyingfox?) and a music player that Gotham's finest can use to play Prince's "Batdance" on repeat.
It's thinner than the iPhone 3G, and it packs in GPS, a video camera and a YouTube-friendly upload feature.
Alas, the Touch Diamond does not have an integrated grappling hook, but Batman has that covered with his own proprietary device. -- Tim Moynihan
