AT&T and HTC today announced the upcoming availability of the HTC Tilt 2 and the HTC Pure with Windows Mobile 6.5. The HTC Pure, AT&T's version of the Touch Diamond 2, is an all-touch phone in a compact form factor, while the HTC Tilt 2, AT&T's version of the Touch Pro 2, features a tilting touch screen combined with a slide-out QWERTY keyboard. Both smartphones boast an enhanced TouchFLO 3D interface.
AT&T will support Windows Marketplace for Mobile in 2009 for access to a variety of applications on new AT&T devices, including the Tilt 2 and Pure. Additionally, AT&T customers' purchases from Windows Marketplace can be added to their monthly statements. After Microsoft delivers Windows Marketplace later this year for other versions of Windows Mobile, AT&T will make it available to customers using those versions.
 The HTC Tilt 2 is designed for the business professional, aiming to deliver a powerful productivity experience. The smartphone features a high-resolution 3.6-inch widescreen WVGA display, a speakerphone with dual speakers and dual microphones with noise cancellation, and HTC's Straight Talk which allows for simplified conference calling and activation of the speakerphone by simply turning over the device. The Tilt 2 also features a 3.2-megapixel camera. Price: $300 / $350. Release: Late October 2009.
 The HTC Pure offers an advanced touch experience that is optimized for one-hand use, which further evolves the compact smartphone design. Incorporating a 3.2-inch WVGA touchscreen, 5-megapixel autofocus camera with video capture, expandable memory, gravity sensor and an ambient light sensor, the HTC Pure targets a consumer audience looking for the professional benefits of a smartphone, without sacrificing size, looks or functionality. We'll post our full review of the AT&T Pure soon. Price: $150 / $200. Release: October 5 2009.
