Default Is Android 1.6 (Donut) working on the HTC Diamond?

This seems like a really obvious answer if you know it... but i have been looking high and low to figure this out. Is android 1.6 working fully on the HTC Diamond 500 CDMA (Telus)? I keep seeing things such as the GPS, Bluetooth, and data don't work on version 2.0.1 so I was just trying see what I was getting myself into if there's extra work

Yes. Check Xandroid website. You can install android on your SD card, and also install Gen.Ydualboot.......meaning you will have two OS ( wm and android). I have got them on my HTC HD.

Does everything (Camera/GPS/Mic./etc...) work? I've recently seen that Android 2.0.1 (Eclair) has made some progress but that is still not able to run these things which personally would render my phone useless
