HTC Touch Orange FranceWith the HTC Touch already having graced T-mobile’s German network as the T-mobile MDA Touch, it was just a matter of time before the TouchFLO toting iPhone-fighter hit French shores. Orange is picking up the HTC Touch as the, well, HTC Touch. It’s nice to see a carrier not only keeping with the device manufacturer’s design but also opting to market a device by it’s government-name.

Just to jog your memory, the HTC Touch rocks quad-band GSM/EDGE, 2 megapixel camera, Bluetooth, and, of course, the TouchFLO interface – all powered by the nifty Windows Mobile 6.0. And, for €129 to €429 (that’s about $177 to $588, without contract) you too (well, the French “you”) can get your hands on an HTC Touch.

$600 for a phone that doesn’t even do 3G?! That’s crazy! Oh, wait, nevermind.
