After O2 Germany said they are to carry the HTC Touch HD exclusively in Germany, a new announcement comes from Orange UK stating Orange will exclusively carry the HTC Touch HD in the United Kingdom.

Director of Devices, Orange UK, Francois Mahieu, says: “We are very pleased to launch this state of the art mobile internet device exclusively on the Orange network. It is a great phone but also a wonderful multimedia handset which paves the way to even more innovations from Orange next year in the mobile internet space. The HTC Touch HD on Orange will be the must have device this Christmas for the person that wants it all”.

Orange is to make the HTC Touch HD available in the UK in early November and will be exclusive with Orange until 2009 at a price of £79.99 with an 18 months contract carrying a £40.00 per month tariff.
