HTC touch is being sold only for its touchFLO interface.
but it is sluggish.

Get any higher end windows mobile and put the touchFLO in it, you will never feel like chaning your handset.

I just switched over form N72 to HTC Touch. I can assure u dat HTC Touch is easy to use n configure.. SMS is not a prb once u get used to it.

But on camera quality n sound quality, HTC Touch is PATHETIC.. HTC is sluggish at times if u hav lots of application running. So shutting down applications can help u increase ur speed. Also for HTC I hav seen ppl getting thr memory increased (I dunno whthr its d rom or whtever but dat really increases d speed esp. whn watching videos)

So it sound n camera is secondary 4 u, go 4 HTC Touch.

I suggest you drop the htc touch & go for Rokr E6 if u want touchscreen,Nokia 5700 & N73 - All rounder phone.For your mom get SE K550i,N76 or Moto razr v3i.

I've heard phones like Touch can be overclocked for better performance.
