Compare O2 XDA Guide (HTC Touch Cruise 09) Deals & Price Comparison

The O2 XDA Guide is the HTC Touch Cruise 09 in disguise. Powered by Windows Mobile 6.1 with built in Co-Pilot 7 sat nav and Google Maps.

The O2 XDA is currently the closest thing you will get to an official version of the HTC Touch Cruise 09 which to date has not been released in the UK. The O2 XDA Guide is simply a re-badged version of the Cruise 09 specifically for the O2 network.

The O2 XDA Guide comes with built in GPS and bundled Co-Pilot Live 7 sat nav software which gives accurate turn by turn navigation. Google Maps is also included to make use of the GPS receiver as is HTC Footprints, a camera geo-tagging application

Apart from the Sat Nav features from which the phone gets its name, the O2 XDA Guide has all you would expect from a well speced Windows Mobile PDA including high speed internet access and WiFi for web browsing and email on the move all accessible via the 2.8" 320x240 pixel touch screen.
