Earlier today, HTC announced three new phones: The Touch HD, Touch 3G and Touch Viva Overseas. All are expected to hit the stores this fall. The first of these phones, the HTC Touch HD features a killer 3.8 inch WVGA screen for Internet browsing, entertainment, and gaming. Click the jump for all the exciting details.

The HTC Touch HD features the largest screen of the Touch line, perfect for surfing the Internet, playing games, or watching the latest videos. In addition to the 3.8 inch WVGA screen, it also offers a whopping 5 megapixel camera, placing it well at the front of the class for all of your photographic inspiration. Like all new phones in the Touch line, it also features the brand new TouchFlo 3D user interface.
New to the Touch HD, however, is a 3.5 mm stereo headphone jack. Frequent readers know that one of my biggest pet peeves with HTC has been the external 2.5 mm jack. So, the addition of a 3.5 mm jack will not only make the phone much more user friendly, but also sends a clear signal from HTC that they are aware of and addressing user complaints.
