The HTC Touch, also known as the HTC P3450 or its codename the HTC Elf, is a Windows Mobile 6-powered Pocket PC designed and manufactured by HTC. Its main, unique feature is a user interface named TouchFLO [1] that detects a sweeping motion and can distinguish between a finger and a stylus. The TouchFLO features, incorporating stylus-free access to a music player, a photo album, a video player and a picture-based contact book, have been compared by some media[2][3] to the iPhone. [4][5] The global launch of the Touch was in Leicester Square, London, on June 5, 2007 (2007-06-05) [6], and the phone was initially available in two colours: black and green.[7] The carrier bound names for this phone include T-Mobile MDA Touch, O2 XDA Nova, Okta Touch and Vodafone VPA Touch.[8]

In November 2007, HTC started to sell an "Enhanced" Touch, also known as the HTC P3452 or its codename the HTC Elfin, with double the RAM and ROM of the original version (128MB and 256MB respectively).[9] The newer version is also available in two new colors: white and burgundy.[7]
