Based on the strong feature set that is found on the HTC Touch Diamond, the HTC Touch Pro goes one-up by introducing a five-row slide-out QWERTY keyboard that makes data entry a snap. How then, does it fare as a smartphone?

You can further increase its storage capabilities with a microSD memory card slot (each HTC Touch Pro comes with a complimentary 1GB microSD card) while the business card scanner application lets you capture and convert business card information on the spot without having to return home or to the office and do that tedious task later, reducing the chances of you forgetting or missing out on essential contact information. Capture business secrets of others with the integrated 3.2 megapixel camera that can record video as well, while the Windows Mobile 6.1 operating system provides access to security and device management capabilities that are often sought after by many business customers.
