On HTC's Twitter feed, the company has confirmed that the Touch Pro 2 will indeed hit North America when it is released.
"And to answer the big question on everyone's minds, the Touch Pro 2 will be broadly available in all major markets, including North America," HTC wrote, or "tweeted" in its Twitter feed, later adding that there are no set launch dates for the device in any country "but we did announce we will start to roll it out in late Q2."
HTC also tweeted that it couldn't say which specific carriers will offer the Touch Pro 2.

The HTC Touch Pro 2, which will run Microsoft's Windows Mobile 6.1 when it is released, can be upgraded to Windows Mobile 6.5. The smartphone features an adjustable tilting 3.6-inch TFT-LCD 450 x 800 WVGA touch screen, a full slide-keyboard, a 3.3-megapixel camera, Wi-Fi, GPS and Bluetooth.
