BestBuy isn’t exactly known for its vast assortment of cutting edge technology, so the announcement that they plan to sell the Newest HTC Touch smartphone is a bit of a surprise.
The Touch Dual is built upon the same size as all other HTC Touch devices (and others like the Sprint Touch and the Verizon XV6900), but adds a nice sliding numeric keypad.
The reason I ask "why" is because the Touch Dual is "so last week" and the internal 3G frequencies won’t even work in the US. It’s almost like HTC are trying to get rid of them so they can start selling something better.

1So your first sentence about Best Buy not being a purveyor of cutting edge technologies is basically just re-confirmed by them selling this phone. No need for the “Why” — it’s business as usual at “Would you like an extended warranty”-land as far as I can tell
