This new Windows Mobile phone includes powerful messaging and browsing features. Incorporating the Windows Mobile 6.5 operating system, the Touch2 promises to offer the best e-mail experience. It is also capable of synchronizing with Microsoft Exchange as well as checking and managing multiple email accounts. The handset supports Internet Explorer-Mobile with Adobe Flash.
The HTC phone also provides access to the Windows Marketplace for Mobile. The My Phone service offered by Microsoft allows users to backup and sync the data stored on the handset.
