- rbranson 15y agoNot multi-touch, but HTC had been making large, touch screen devices based on Windows Mobile for a while before the iPhone was announced. http://www.gsmarena.com/htc_p3600-1694.php http://www.gsmarena.com/htc_p3600-1694.php Clearly not taken to the degree Apple did, but what Apple did was evolve it to the point where it was consumer-friendly, not invent the concept itself.
