along with iPhone

The HTC Touch HD is a slick looking device that is sure to impress. If you’re looking to buy one, you’ll be happy to know that devicewire has got a batch of them shipped right now.

Although the device is not yet available on Orange, when it goes live you will be able to purchase the device via Orange stores, Orange Telesales and Orange’s online shop. Orange have only just received them into their testing department today, so it will be a little while before they’re up for grabs. I know I’m excited!

ELSPA hopes that this collaboration will set a precedent for the industry.
