Business users can synchronise it with their email, calendar and contacts with their Microsoft Exchange server.

HTC Touch Diamond2 (pictured) is available through Optus and is the next phase of the Touch Diamond which includes a touch sensitive zoom bar and five mega-pixel camera.

It is designed for business professionals. Straight Talk makes it easy to transit from email to a single or multi-party calls and can conference bridge calls.

Anthony Petts, sales and marketing director A/NZ, HTC said the telephone conferencing is defined by the network the user is on and how many people it can add to the call at the same time. Generally the maximum number is five.

"It will challenge what a typical "business" phone is capable of achieving," he said.

Petts said the three phones join HTC's growing family of handsets, with 11 devices currently in the Australian market.

"The phones each come with Windows 6.1 and customers can download to upgrade to Windows 6.5 when it comes out," he added.

"We have a smarter email solution. When you combine that with mobile exchange, you can link it up to your devices by turning the capability on.

"We will have some more exciting news in the coming months. It makes people realise what you can do with your mobile exchange environment, to go from the desktop experience to using a mobile phone that will become more prevalent in every day work/life situations."

Technology highlights include;

• TouchFLO 3D interface
• People Centric communication that displays the individual conversation history of a contact
• Push Internet technology that enables favourite web pages to be pre-delivered to the phone
• Inner Circle which allows HTC Snap users to press a dedicated key to bring emails from a preselected group of people to the top of their inbox
