Telstra has revealed the addition of almost one million new mobile services in the six months to December 2011, but Sensis revenues plummeted 24 percent in 12 months.
If you make calls and nothing else (i.e. no mp3/video/photo playback, web surfing, email, GPS or other activities), you’ll get ‘up to’ 7 hours of GSM (2G) calls, 4 hours of 3G (UMTS) calls and 2.3 hours of video calls using the 1350 mAh lithium-ion battery – which is at least replaceable, unlike the iPhone.
Oddly, HTC’s website lists standby time at 450 hours for 3G (UMTS) and only 400 hours for GSM. I personally think they’ve got these two the wrong way around, but either way, it’s hundreds of hours in standby if you don’t use the phone for anything else.
With battery installed (as per usual), the phone weighs 130 grams.
The HTC Touch Cruise is available now in Australia for AUD $1149 outright, although you’ll surely soon find it on offer from a range of telcos at cheaper prices, although offered as part of what would presumably be a two year contract.
