HTC Touch Gets Tactile Keypad and Becomes Nike

What’s even better than a touchscreen smartphone with a virtual keyboard and finger-swiping controls? Why, a tactile keypad of course. Sure, touchscreen control is a fancy thing and it’s nice to have it on your smartphone, just to be fashionable. But for those hardcore messaging and texting days, nothing beats good old physical keys. HTC thought of the idea and had enough expertise to do the job just right. The result: an HTC Touch with a slide-out keypad called HTC Nike. With a real tactile keypad, even the iPhone would be scared. The rest of the specs: 3G/HSDPA, Windows Mobile 6, 2 MP camera.
