What we have here is a compact Windows Mobile Smartphone 6 / 1 with a 2.8 "240 x 320 pixel touch screen, HSDPA and UMTS support with a maximum download speed of 7.2 Mbps, WiFi, built - in GPS, a 3.2 megapixel camera, microSD expandable memory and Bluetooth. The "Cruise" part of the name refers to the Phone-A-GPS receiver. Although you can use the Touch Cruise with your 09 favorite personal navigation software, it is also something wrong with the name "HTC Footprints." Footprints works by allowing users, a "digital postcards", from a photo, audio clips and the accompanying text, which is then geo-tagged with the location. Not only the geo-tagging the GPS coordinates, but the Touch Cruise 09 includes the name of the site and stores it.
The GPS device can then trace your way back, when the postcard was saved, which is something that seems to be unique for HTC Footprints. Another interesting feature is that the geo-tagging works indoors and outdoors, the other devices struggle to manage. Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional comes with all standard software that you would expect, and the HTC TouchFLO interface, which makes it a much nicer experience.
Even though the Touch Cruise 09 is a relatively lightweight handset weight only 103 grams but inside is a 528 MHz Qualcomm MSM7225 processor with 256 MB of RAM. Talk time is a maximum of 6 hours with up to 14 days standby time.
