Sure, the Touch Pro2 from HTC is available from a variety of carriers around the world at this point -- but you won't find many (read: none) that are offering it in the US right now, which makes T-Mobile's launch especially notable. As expected, it'll be hitting on August 12, bringing a 3.2 megapixel camera, AWS 3G, GPS, a glorious 3.6-inch WVGA display, WiFi, and that unique Straight Talk tech that should make the phone one of the best speakerphones you've ever used (frequent conference callers, take note). Pricing hasn't been announced, but expect it in the lovely shade pictures above, which is being termed "mocha"
(your choice of vocabulary may vary).http://www.engadgetmobile.com/

I know its not the sprint(or verizon) version we're all waiting for but its the first official date and carrier with it. Plus its concrete, not he say/she say like other threads...

Got to play with a TP2 at a T-Mobile store in SF today! Seemed pretty peppy, a little bigger than I had imagined, and sadly does not have the 3.5 mm jack, but all in all a pretty sexy machine!
