It seems that you have a clear vision of what a mobile should look like correct?
Could you please state your preference here so we actually know what the heck you are talking about? And already answering your future post, not all phones need to look like that. Grow the F-up!
You mean... a PHONE architect (nowadays we call them designers) or a building architect? If somehow you work in a phone company design department I eat my words, but if your livelihood depends on counting the number of windows a room should have or "how can renew this urban landscape"... I still dont think you are the most qualified person to talk about this.
And "this phone looks old" argument makes you sound like a 5 year old.
ps. Still you have not stated your preference. Please enlighten us. ps2. And it was not an F-word, was an F-up. Think of it as 7-up. ps3. An architect complaining about "old looks". I thought you guys studied to admire the old as well... Just because Eiffel tower "looks old" does not mean it is ugly. Different people different tastes.
@Mr w00t Obviously, you are not in the position to talk about anything with anyone without insulting him and our logic. There are styles in buildings as well as cars, portable devices etc. No, i don't count windows, i design much bigger things than a phone. Old is not ugly, i never said that. Old is old. In 2010, it's stupid to make a new building look the way parthenon looks and it's quit weird to make a phone look like one from previous decade. Finally, i mentioned Htc diamond, didn't i. And i have never mentioned iPhone, till now. So, like you say, grow the F-up by starting respecting others' opinions... boy!!!
@Psarrism Wow... easy grandpa, this way your heart wont hold. No reason to get all worked up if a "boy" from the internets says things you dont like.
You should have more sense of design. HTC Diamond is far from being perfect. Looking more squarish than an old brick. If that is pretty than I suspect you are the one behind Ryugyong Hotel.
And about respecting others opinion. You come in a Nokia post to say what ever you want and you dont want to hear a reply? You are not respecting my opinion either... ;)
I will take a F-up but I dont want to grow up to be like you.
And I am here, eagerly expecting your design revolution.
And yes, i can say whatever i like wherever i like, whenever i like as long as i don't break the law. Now, go do something usuful to society, play WOW or spend your parent's money, whatever.
His point is fair though. Of course you can say whatever you want, but architecture is very different from designing phones. Completely different even. And, I dont care what EISA says, its not a design award. There is no red dot here. I actually think the diamond is ugly.

Sorry, what year is this???
@Psarrism Year 2010 sir.
@Psarrism
The year of phones.
@hazelnuts89 Not for Nokia's designers!
@Psarrism According to Nokia, 2005 it seems!
Dire
@Psarrism I dont understand what you mean.

@Mr w00t I am a 35 years old architect and i know what i am talking about. This phone looks old! (What's the reason for the F-word?)
@kuruptedbhoy
Yeah we know. If it doesn't have one button with squareish figure innit, it's not good design.
@huzzlehoff Htc Diamond was nice, too.
@huzzlehoff
Oh yeah, i forgot the glass that's harder than a stolid coc.. i mean, sapphire.
@Psarrism
Well, I think that iPhone 4 looks much older.
@Psarrism he didnt use the f word. he used the f letter.
@kuruptedbhoy
2005? That there Nokia does not look a thing like a Sony Ericsson P990 or a Palm Treo 650
@Psarrism So you are an architect?
