Telus launches HTC Touch, S640 in CanadaTelus has just launched two Windows Mobile powered smartphones in Canada – HTC Touch and HTC S640. The first mentioned is the iPhone-like device that has only 5-way navigation and dial/hang-up key on the front. For everything else, Touch users rely on the touchscreen and HTC’s TouchFLO technology which allows controlling the Windows Mobile 6-based device only with a finger. On the other hand, unlike the Touch, the HTC S640 has the full QWERTY keyboard. Guess we could think of it as a business device, while the Touch is more of a fun/personal device.

At the moment, Telus is selling both HTC Touch and HTC S640 for $149.99 with a 3-year contract.

The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application.
