If you thought the Touch HD was the only new phone HTC had to offer…well, you would be wrong.  Because they introduced not only one, not even two, but three new phones today.  In addition to the Touch HD, which I already told you about, they also introduced the Touch 3G and the Touch Viva.  Once again, click the link for more details.

The Touch 3G is a phone designed for the Internet.  It offers, “powerful Internet capabilities including wireless download speeds up to 18 times faster than standard 3G.”  I have no idea how they are doing that, so don’t even bother asking me. 

The Touch Viva is a more affordable phone, offering users all of the features of the TouchFlo 3D interface and Windows Mobile 6.1.

Both phones are expected to hit a variety of markets in October 2008.  The Touch 3G will be available in four colors: sophisticated black, noble gold, sparkle blue and modern brown, while the HTC Touch Viva will be available in Storm Gray.
