Here is some cool for those who want to have TouchFLO 3D interface to their phones. Also, the first generation of HTC Touch has got its successor today, namely HTC Touch Viva. Till now it’s been tested on a few devices, the Kaiser (HTC TyTN II), Nike (Touch Dual) and others. The Touch Viva supports Quadband GSM network. At the moment this is .Cab file only for handymen and professionals – for beginners, it is definitely not recommended! Also a hard reset could be needed, secure all your important data before installing. It can only do EDGE wireless data connection but with its built in WiFi you can still enjoy a good data connection when you are connected to a wireless hotspot. There’s a main CAB file plus a YouTube CAB file to install, plus you’ll need Opera and Google Maps installed to get everything working. The Touch Viva is an affordable touch phone with the new HTC’s TouchFLO, or call it TouchFLO 2D as it would be less 3D effect than the TouchFLO 3D. The Touch Viva will be available in early October 2008 in Storm Gray color. Coolsmartphone has done a video demo for everyone to enjoy here.
