First of all the touch screen started intermittently failing, and then the internal speaker went - not ideal when clients can hear me but I can't hear them... An emergency purchase was therefore necessary and now I am the (mostly) very happy owner of the logical upgrade to the Tytn II, the HTC Touch Pro2.
