HTC has announced the new Touch Cruise, its latest personal navigation handset with inbuilt GPS. Touch Cruise boasts a new, more compact design and a host of new capabilities to offer a richer and more intuitive experience in one powerful package.
It offers HTC Footprints, an application experience that enables people to permanently chronicle their special moments by capturing a digital postcard on their phone. Footprints identifies each postcard with its specific GPS co-ordinates, and auto-names each postcard with its general location or area.
“Just as we have seen GPS technology transform how people navigate to new places, we are now seeing location-based applications like HTC Footprints changing how we interact and carry our memories,” said Peter Chou, President and CEO, HTC Corporation.
The HTC Touch Cruise boasts a compact and sleek design with a 2.8 inch QVGA display. It provides fingertip access to phone, contacts, email, messaging, calendar and GPS applications. It also features Wi-Fi b/g and A-GPS, together with Bluetooth 2.0 and a 3.2-megapixel fixed-focus camera.
The HTC Touch Cruise is also an advanced in-car navigation system with an easy-to-use, one-touch interface that provides seamless turn-by-turn directions.
HTC says the Touch Cruise will be available across all major global markets in spring 2009.
