HTC has officially launched two new touchscreen phones. The HTC Dual is an upgrade of the HTC Touch. Formerly dubbed “Nike,” HTC decided on the more apt “Dual.” Dual adds a SureType slide-out keypad to the Touch. HTC dual also will have high-speed HSDPA connectivity to complement WiFi, a 400Mhz CPU, 256MB of ROM, 126MB of RAM. The Dual will be available this month throughout Europe. Orange will give it for free to French customers with a 35 GBP-a-month subscription.

The P6500 Sedna is a more interesting launching by HTC. Running on Windows Mobile 6, it has a 3.5-inch anti-glare touchscreen, which is a big hint to its PDA identity. The Sedna is a quadband GSM, triband CDMA, HSDPA phone with WiFi, GPS and a 3.0 megapixel camera. It has 1GB onboard memory and 2 SDIO slots. It will be available in November.
