AT&T is going to get the HTC Touch Pro2 on their network starting next month. Only in this case, they are calling it the Tilt 2. The exact date of release is October 18 according to Boy Genius Report. The phone is expected to be powered by the Microsoft Windows Mobile 6.5 operating system. Verizon is selling the Touch Pro2 for $199 after contract and rebates while Sprint is selling it for $349.99 after contract and rebates. My guess is that AT&T will match Verizon’s price since they can afford to subsidize high-end phones as proven by the iPhone.

Sprint is selling the HTC Touch Pro2 for $349.99. The Touch Pro2 is a top-notch smart-phone but Sprint is not making it easy for their customers to get a hold of it. The $349.99 price that Sprint is selling the Touch Pro2 for is after rebates and two year contract. Verizon on the other hand is selling the HTC Touch Pro2 for $199.99 after two year contract and $100 mail-in rebate. Perhaps if Deutsche Telekom ends up buying Sprint, they can teach them a thing or two about having lower prices.

T-Mobile and Sprint have their hands on the HTC Touch Pro2, but don’t count on Verizon to be one of the only players to be left out.  The HTC Touch Pro2 will be available for you to pick up at Verizon stores for $199 starting September 11.  This price includes a 2 year contract and a $100 rebate.

Sprint has announced that the HTC Touch Pro2 will be arriving on their network on September 8.  T-Mobile is already selling the device at the same price as Sprint.  The cost is $349.99 with a $100 rebate.  The $349.99 cost is only available with a 2 year contract.

The phone will also need a data plan in order to make the most out of it.  The phone runs on Windows Mobile 6.1 and it has a QWERTY keyboard with a 3.6″ touchscreen.  The full press release is available after the jump.

PhoneArena has discovered a Sprint document that displays the release date of the Sprint Touch Pro2.  Rumor has it that the device will be arriving on September 3rd.  The Touch Pro2 will be powered by the Windows Mobile 6.1.  The specs of the phone are available after the jump.

Next month T-Mobile will be hosting several events across the U.S. in celebration of the launch of the HTC Touch Pro2 and the HTC Dash 3G.  The Touch Pro2 was announced back in February and the Dash 3G details leaked earlier this month.  The Dash 3G is also known as the HTC Snap.

BGR has a list of cities and links to the registration.  Below are the cities and the dates of the event:
- July 14 – San Francisco, CA
- July 15 – Chicago, IL
- July 16 – Los Angeles, CA
- July 21 – Arlington, VA
- July 22 – Houston, TX
- July 23 – Atlanta, GA
- July 28 – Ft. Lauderdale, FL

Rumor has it that the HTC Touch Pro2 may hit the retail shelves in the middle of June.  This may be bad timing since the Pre is arriving on June 6th so Sprint customers may be more inclined to pick up that multi-touch device with their own app store.

The Touch Pro2 has a 3.6″ TFT-LCD touch screen display with 480×800 WVGA resolution, an adjustable tilt screen, WinMo 6.1 O/S,  Qualcomm MSM7200A processor, a zoom bar and TouchFLO 3D device controls, slide out 5 row QWERTY keyboard,  Bluetooth and WiFi, and 3.2 megapixel camera.
