H TC, announced the European launch of the HTC Touch Dual, a new and more powerful member of the HTC Touch family that integrates 3.5G wireless connectivity with a sleek and innovative sliding keypad design. 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 adds high speed 3G/HSDPA connectivity and a slide out keypad into a thin and narrow device designed for easy typing.
