"This summer, many people are balancing summer vacations and time away from the office with the pressures of the workplace," said Travis Warren, director of product marketing for T-Mobile USA. "We are pleased to announce the HTC Touch Pro2, a uniquely designed device that will help customers manage their day-to-day activities, whether they are in the office or working from an airport, the local playground, or the car."

Streamlining Communications

The HTC Touch Pro2 will run on T-Mobile's 3G network and Wi-Fi (802.11 b/g). The device has a 3.6-inch color WVGA touchscreen that slides back and tilts up to reveal a full QWERTY keyboard. The device comes equipped with a Web browser, built-in GPS and location-based services, and a 3.2-megapixel camera with autofocus for photos and video.

A single contact view displays an individual's conversation history regardless of whether voice, text or e-mail was used. The HTC Touch Pro2 also includes Straight Talk technology, an integrated e-mail, voice and speakerphone experience that provides a way to respond to e-mail via a call and allows organizing conference calls from group e-mail. Straight Talk delivers a high-fidelity voice and sound experience enhanced by asymmetric speakers and advanced noise suppression with full-duplex acoustics.

HTC's latest TouchFLO 3D interface is integrated into a customized version of Windows Mobile 6.1 to deliver maximum consistency throughout Windows Mobile applications and menus. This is designed to make it easier for customers to view, edit and update Microsoft documents, access calendars, and manage to-do lists. Access to Microsoft Voice Command aims to simplify locating contacts in the address book, making phone calls, getting calendar information, playing music, and starting programs. The HTC Touch Pro2 is also stereo Bluetooth-capable.

"The HTC Touch Pro2 offers the most powerful productivity experience available on a mobile phone, while also delivering unparalleled elegance in both its exterior and user-interface design," said Jason Mackenzie, vice president of HTC America. "HTC and T-Mobile have a history of introducing groundbreaking products, and this collaboration continues with the debut of this highly anticipated device to the U.S. market." (continued...)
