  Anyway, if I need to satisfy my white phone craving I now can courtesy of Orange, who have just launched a white version of the HTC Touch on pre-pay for a bargainalicious £149.99! You can find more details on the Orange shop page. Strangely according to the site this seems to be the 64MB RAM version, very odd... still a tasty little thing though  P PS Note: Picture not from Orange... -------------------- My current devices of choice - HTC Touch HD (Miri 6.5 v11), White T-Mobile G1 (Haykuro ADP1.5Hr3-A2SD), Samsung Blackjack II (6.1 stock)   |

That is so cheap! They're going for that price on eBay! Shame it's not the 256/128 version though..

As im using an SPV E650 at the moment I was quite interested to note the price drop of these White HTC Touch Phones.
I was wondering if they had got the full windows live kit including windows live messenger as I wanted Orange Messenger as at present my phone is and Orange conversion from the HTC S710 so i would like things to match and as yet i cant find a free and legal version of Windows Live Messenger for SPV E650 also Orange Customer Services advised me that Orange Messenger is STILL not ready to go on any phone yet! Either way from the spec and the looks the HTC Touch is cool. I assume that as the price is dropping it will be soon replaced but hey its good for the consumer. MMMmm memory is always an issue more the better Andrew AKA Silversurfer2008 This post has been edited by silversurfer2008: Apr 29 2008, 09:11 |

If it's confirmed, I think I'll sell my MDA Touch and get this. Would love to go back to white and have the ol' HTC logo again!

I can comfirm it's 128mb RAM. I was explorering my favourite sites last thursday (modaco and coolsmartphone) and sin you could get one for silly money, so i rang the orange shops around my area friday and they said they were expecting them in soon and to my suprise about an hour later Blackburn Orange shop rang me back (thank god for caller ID) and said that they had just arrived so to my excitment i got him to pop one under the counter and i'll pick it up later. Within half an hour of getting home i had it unlocked and flashed with a cooked rom WM 6.1 from another great site xda-developers (keep up the good work guys). So anyway enough of me getting excited over a phone..... i have posted some screen shot's of the Device ID. Also to confirm the front looks exactly like the pic above and the back says touch in the middle like above but does not have HTC at the bottom but has a very small orange logo at the top in the middle you also get a 1gb micro sd card with it plus stereo headphones a funky little HTC pouch and a screen protector which was nice plus all the usual gubbins.

Give me untill weekend and i'll try and do some more screen shots, as well as some decent pics with my proper camera. And maybe a little review......well i'd try.
 That's if anybody is interested?  Let me know just post a reply....... Ps. If you decide to buy one you have to purchase £10 credit unless you already have an orange pay & go to which i don't nor do any of my mates, so i had to stump up the extra tenner but VERY well worth it.

So does the orange Unflashed Version have Orange Messenger, Windows Live Messenger or Plain Nothing?
Personally having looked at the dummy i think the phone screen is a tad small for finger control. |

I think it had windows live messenger on it but cant be certain as i always flash my window's phone with a cooked rom as soon as i get them. The screen is fine for finger poking, i have pretty standard hands/fingers definatly manly and i find it a breeze especially when you install the big start menu app plus pocket toolman which alows you to increase the scroll bar size. |
