Amid talk of Android and would-be heroes we're about to revisit HTC on their hallowed PocketPC ground. Good things seem to come in pairs for the company while out-and-out upgrades are always good news for...

      i did a live demo of the Pro2
      i loved it bcoz i love windows mobile and this is the best ever however i found these drawbacks
      heavy
      touch screen still far behind the I phone
      the camera is modest
      the calender is so primitive..
      No major advanntage in the the new OS
      the processor is still slow..

      So if you are a windows mo user this is the best till now

        Gadgetz, 30 Jun 2009It's available in Indo with price approx USD 875, compared ... moreNot sure why you even considered TP2 if camera is so important because other than the camera and internal memory, the TP2 is many times the superior to N97 in terms of hardware. Software on the other hand is a matter of preference. So if camera is so important then take N97. If better keyboard, bigger screen are more immediate priorities, then the TP2.

          It's available in Indo with price approx USD 875, compared to N97 only USD 775. I'd really love with Touchpro2 design, but too bad that there are no flash in the camera. Really need to test the quality of the camera, otherwise, I'd be better off to choose N97...what do you think.??? =)

            I live in Europe and here Touch Pro2 is about 50$ cheaper then N97. I will probably buy it, because it has Windows Mobile, but if you are not a fan of Windows Mobile N97 might be a better solution.

                Anonymous, 19 Jun 2009I heard the touch pro2 will be running at $800.00 unlocked ... moreI would say, if you're not a power user, and really don't want to spend 800 on a phone but you want a full QWERTY slide out keyboad, the N97 should be a better bet. Do bear in mind the Touch Pro 2 has a larger screen, higher resolution screen and a better keyboard. The N97 compensates with bigger internal storage and better camera. So other than price it depends on personal preference.

                  I heard the touch pro2 will be running at $800.00 unlocked of course, for me, that's a bit much. I just purchased a high end 4GB RAM (450GB memory) notebook for $700 with loads of other features. I was looking forward to this phone, but the price is so damn high. I look forward to the Nokia N97 in a few months then. I can wait. there is a site that use some good info about the touch pro2, http://www.AllTouchPro2.com i want to hear what your view is on this smart phone.

                    you mention that it only have about 300mb memory, and memory card should be recommended, which seems very reasonable. however, i'm unable to find if it can use 16gb microSDHC or only up to 8gb. have you tried, or can you try, successfully with a 16gb card?

                      DENNY LEE, 07 Jun 2009I liked design htc touchn pro2 Why still coming soon Depending on where you are, the phone is already available for sale. Very pricey compared to N97 which is surprisingly cheap for the specs. I wouls say retail price maybe 150 to 200 US$ cheaper than the Touch Pro 2.
                      If you're in the US, the reason its slow is due to the structure of the market. Usually new phones are "distributed" or "sold" through carriers. Subsidized phones are nice but some consumers prefer to buy retail versions. Hence why its still not in the US and why its available in some markets.

                                    Hi,

                                    this device is not for everyone, i mean HTC Pro the 1st i used to see it in everybody hands and i was sure that not all of them use the device options,,, this device is not avaiable yet in KSA but i'm sure that the price will be high.

                                    some folks says if the OS was Andriod i would buy it
                                    but what i see is Business Mobile,,, Good Job HTC but this device is not for everyone.
