Taiwanese-based HTC (High Tech Computer) has announced plans to sell one million touch-screen mobile devices to Indian consumers by 2010.

Ajay Sharma of HTC India told the Financial Chronicle that the local mobile market had "only seen the tip of the iceberg" of what the company had to offer. Sharma also noted that that HTC was expected to launch a number of new 3G devices to meet the growing needs of subscribers.

HTC currently sells 13 handset models in the Indian market, including 11 global systems for mobile communications (GSM) phones and two code division multiple access (CDMA) phones - priced between Rs10, 000 and Rs.30, 000.

HTC recently unveiled the Touch HDTM, an entertainment-focused mobile handset that features a large 3.8-inch wide-screen VGA display (WVGA), a standard 3.5mm audio jack and a five megapixel camera with autofocus. The company also manufactures the Touch Viva, a 2.8-inch touch-screen mobile device that offers quad-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE connectivity, a two megapixel camera and a MicroSD slot for expandable storage.
