On the occasion of the Memorial Day weekend, Best Buy has launched the unlocked HTC Touch Dual on its web site and stores. With no carrier subsidies, it will sell for USD$549.99. But you have a bit of time to save up as it is currently only available for pre-order.
Sporting Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional, it will also come with quad-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE (850/900/1800/1900Mhz) and dual-band HSDPA (850/1900Mhz) connectivity, Bluetooth 2.0, and a 2MP camera. It will also come with a slide-out 20-key thumb keyboard (rather than the 12-key version). On the software side, it will include TouchFLO, HTC’s own interface and Live HTC Home featuring time and weather display, quick launcher, and one-touch ring-tone settings
