Without an official words from HTC itself, Expansys UK has started to accept pre-orders of the new HTC Touch Diamond2 with an expected delivery date of April 17th. The company is selling the Touch Diamond2 at 488 USD before tax or 561 USD after tax.

The Touch Diamond2 incorporates a larger 3.2-inch high-resolution wide-screen VGA display for a greater viewing area in a design just 13.7mm thick. The phone also includes a 5 megapixel camera, microSD card slot, light sensor and a new touch sensitive zoom bar for faster zooming of Web pages, emails, text messages, photos or documents. Compare to first generation of the Touch Diamond, HTC claimed to have improved up to 55% of the battery life.
