Just saw that HTC Touch HD – probably one of the most fascinating Windows Mobile devices today – is one of the 3 manliest gadgets of 2008.

What’s a manliest gadget? I guess it has to be big, fast, great looking, probably not something that looks like HTC Touch Diamond… but according to my special sources (Google) the Polish TV channel TVN Turbo is running this kind of contest every year, in order to find the most masculine products of the year.

144 products have already been whittled down to just 12, and the HD is one of the 3 finalists in the gadget section. Cewooool.

The other two products are the Pentax Optio W60 and Sony Vaio series laptops.

I heard that T-Mobile G1 (HTC’s Android phone) was also a candidate but the voters thought it looks too old to really exist in 2008…

    A few weeks ago I wrote a comment on the Diamond. It was available in Spain much before than in other countries. I had the chance to test it and it didn’t appeal to me at all. It was bulky, slow… not what I was expecting. So I stuck with my Kaiser.
    Now, last Saturday I tested the new Touch HD (Blackstone) and it was a love at first sight. So I own it and, believe me, this is a real change for the better. It is slim, powerful and fast. Recommended.

    I am surprised that the Samsung Omnia is not in the list. It has a very manly 16gb built-in and looks really sleek.
