HTC has just announced the Touch, their effort to compete with the upcoming Apple iPhone. The Touch has a new way of navigating the OS with HTC's own invention, TouchFLO. The TouchFLO system allows the user to sweep his or her finger across the screen in order to control the OS.
"With the HTC Touch, access to your most commonly used content, contacts and features is only a simple finger flick away," said Peter Chou, chief executive officer of HTC. "Mobile phone makers have done a great job of cramming ever-more exciting features into ever-smaller phones. But the way in which one accesses these increasingly sophisticated features has not kept pace. That ends today with the HTC Touch."
The HTC Touch runs Windows Mobile 6 on a 2.8-inch display. It is a tri-band 900/1800/1900 GSM with EDGE smartphone that includes 802.11b/g WiFi, Bluetooth 2.0, a 1GB microSD card and a 2 megapixel camera.
