We’ve looked at TouchFLO in the last issue of this review – but there’s more to the little box. Read on for an overview…

Even though Windows Media player tends to be a pretty decent media player, HTC felt like rolling its own:

It obviously was inspired by the iPhone:

A pretty decent photo viewer is included:

HTC apparently sees value in RSS feeds – they have included a program called RSS Hub
htc rss HTC Touch 3G review   software htc rss 2 HTC Touch 3G review   software

Which incidentally was licensed from Ilium:

A voice control solution is included, as is a custom voice recorder:

ZIP files traditionally were difficult to open on handhelds – HTC’s ZIP tool is decent:

A look at two little system addons from HTC – a new keyboard and a task list which can be accessed from the today screen
htc touch 3g keyboard HTC Touch 3G review   software htc touch 3g task manager HTC Touch 3G review   software

Finally, a look at the available memory:

The HTC Touch 3G’s software bundle is defined by the name-giving TouchFLO user interface. HTC’s add-ons nevertheless make sense…and should leave most users more than happy…

  1. I would still prefer to use Google reader, it works fine on a windows mobile, an that way you can read news on every pc always knowing what you have read at what you havent
