Editor's note: A version supporting AT&T's HSDPA network is now available.
The most significant improvement in the HTC Touch Dual is surprisingly not the hardware keyboard. Perhaps we would have found it more useful if we had tested the SureType version instead of the numeric keys on our review unit, but to us, the best improvement was in the responsiveness of the phone and the TouchFLO interface. This Touch seemed to work much better than the other two we'd tried, and made the phone much more usable and likable. It still won't match a full-QWERTY phone for productivity, but Windows Mobile fans looking for a mostly-touch device will be happy with the improvments HTC has made. Release: May 2008. Price: $550.
Pros: Fast networking on European HSDPA networks. TouchFLO interface seems to be more responsive.
Cons: Still not as agile as other touchscreen devices. No U.S. 3G support. SureType version more interesting than 12-key numeric.
