HTC announce the 'Touch' device

Today HTC announced the HTC Touch Device which was codenamed Elf.

I had an opportunity a few weeks ago to get hands on with one of these and it is pretty amazing!

The HTC Touch is the first device to feature TouchFLO™, the new underlying touch screen technology
developed by HTC. You simply sweep your finger up the display to launch an animated,
three-dimensional interface comprising three screens: Contacts, Media and Applications. The interface can
be spun by swiping a finger right or left across the display, providing efficient access to the features
consumers use most. TouchFLO™ also enhances finger touch scrolling and browsing of Web pages,
documents, messages and contact lists.

The HTC Touch™ includes Outlook Mobile, Office Mobile, Windows Live and the capabilities to run thousands of third-party applications. Users can surf the web with Internet Explorer®, send and receive emails, chat on Messenger and send files to their own web space through Windows Live®.
