The Stylish HTC Touch Cruise

The HTC Touch Cruise is sleek, stylish, and compact, but big on features and with an LCD screen size that gives you an excellent multimedia experience in a mobile device. Featuring HTC’s innovative TouchFLO™ interface, the Touch Cruise is extremely easy to use.

Using ordinary finger gestures, you can quickly browse through e-mails, web pages, messages, music, and images, making navigation a breeze.

Built-in GPS functionality and the included software enable you to find the fastest route to your direction, locate restaurants and services on the way, and never get lost. Avoid traffic and delays, and take detours to visit points of interest and local attractions.

The Touch Cruise will be a Windows Mobile 6 Professional device, and comes with HTC's propriety elegant HTC interface. Running the show on the Touch Cruise is a Qualcomm MSM7200 400MHz processor, coupled with 256MB and 128MB of ROM and RAM respectively.

Simple applications suffer no obvious lag, though you'll be forewarned not to overload it with too much multi-tasking and open applications.

Connections specifications include Bluetooth 2.0, USB 2.0, HSDPA support and also built-in GPS for the traveler in you. If all this sounds familiar, you're right. The Touch Cruise has the power of the TyTN II, sans its QWERTY keypad, which makes it thinner at 15.5mm and lighter at 130g than the TyTN II.

With moderate usage of its Wi-Fi, GPS and Bluetooth capabilities, the Touch Cruise lasted nearly 2 whole days on a full charge, which is in close contention to the TyTN II.
