The '''HTC Touch Pro2''' (also known as the '''AT&T Tilt 2''', '''HTC Tytn III'''; codename: '''HTC Rhodium''', '''HTC Barium''', '''HTC Tungsten''', '''HTC Fortress''') is a slate [[Engineering:Smartphone|smartphone]], part of the Touch series of [[Internet]]-enabled, [[Software:Windows Mobile|Windows Mobile]], [[Engineering:Pocket PC|Pocket PC]] smartphones designed and marketed by HTC Corporation of Taiwan. It is an enhanced version of the HTC Touch Pro with a left-side slide-out [[Engineering:QWERTY|QWERTY]] keyboard, with tilting screen. The Touch Pro2 smartphone's functions include those of a [[Engineering:Camera phone|camera phone]] and a [[Engineering:Portable media player|portable media player]] in addition to text messaging and [[Multimedia Messaging Service|multimedia messaging]]. It also offers Internet services including e-mail, [[Social:Instant messaging|instant messaging]], [[Software:Web browser|web browsing]], and local [[Wi-Fi]] connectivity. Visual voicemail is not a standard feature for the Touch Pro2, unlike its predecessor the Touch Pro.  The Verizon Wireless version does include a visual voicemail application, however.  All versions feature [[TouchFLO 3D]] — a new enhanced version of the TouchFLO interface, unique only to the latest Touch series.  The latest update renamed TouchFLO 3D to SenseUI, to match HTC's [[Software:Android (operating system)|Android]] offering. The Touch Pro2 — along with its sister model, the [[Engineering:HTC Touch Diamond2|Touch Diamond2]] — were unveiled on February 16, 2009 in [[Place:Barcelona|Barcelona]], {{wipe|Spain}} at the Mobile World Congress 2009.  Specific enhancements over the original Touch Pro include:

* Larger 3.6-inch WVGA display (0.2" smaller than the [[Engineering:HTC Touch HD|Touch HD]])
* Improved battery life
* Conference calls with up to five other people using HTC Straight Talk, a new speaker phone system that includes two speakers and two microphones (for increased volume and noise cancellation, respectively)
* Tiltable screen
