The HTC Touch Dual follows HTC’s heritage of bringing a new level of simplicity to the powerful and feature rich device experience that today’s mobile users demand. Taking a design cue from the stylish HTC Touch, the HTC Touch Dual integrates 3.5G wireless connectivity and a slide out keypad into a slim and slender device designed for easy typing.

The HTC Touch Dual is the second device to feature HTC’s TouchFLO, the same gesture-recognition technology as that in the HTC Touch, but now the new functionality -- including the ability to view photo slideshows using on-screen controls and to zoom and rotate images with only a hand.

TouchFLO also allows enhanced finger touch scrolling and browsing of web pages, documents, messages and contact lists.

"The HTC Touch Dual expands the HTC Touch product family and integrates 3.5G connectivity and a sliding keyboard into a slim and stylish design. This combination provides customers with the most uncompromising and intuitive touch experience available on a phone," said Jack Tong, Vice President of HTC Asia.

Featuring a robust Qualcomm MSM7200 chip running at 400MHz, the HTC Touch Dual with Windows Mobile software offers a rich and familiar experience that will enable users to stay connected and access the people, information and entertainment -- most important to them -- all from a single, personalized device.

HTC also announced additional colour variant and a free, full screen virtual keypad for the original HTC Touch.
