The Orbit 2 will also feature HTC's TouchFlo technology, and will be available in December at a price of 99 Euros on a 24 month contract.

Ooooh, my Orbit is going to get a younger brother as company. :-)

(Hopefully O2 will release it here in the UK - and not get sidetracked by that iphone also-ran it's about to release ;-))

Wow nice design! Just when I was thinking of getting the P3600 (Trinity) this one pops up. If an unlocked one comes prior to Christmas I might just pick this up. I also like the fact that it has an FM Radio - something sorely missing from today's PPC line-ups.

This is a good specification for a PPC, I like it.
