The HTC Tattoo is a late 2009 product designed to let the consumer take full advantage and integrate with social networking sites and software. Text, twitters and photos are just a few of the things that can be placed on the HTC Tattoo's screen because of its fully customizable cover and interface. Instead of a windows operating system, the phone comes with Android which means it has full access to the Android market of widgets, apps and game downloads, making the phone a game console, personal computer, and link to the social internet all wrapped into one small package. The HTC Tattoo comes with a search feature, making it easy for the consumer to sort through their contact list, emails, events on a calendar, scour the web and even sort through tweets on Twitter.
