The UI reminds me of NeXTSTEP. I like.

Very cool, they got the on screen keyboard right. The Icons are not bad, but lack consistency (a more defined look would help). So far so good, so if this thing includes Flash and adds A2DP, I ' m s o l d !

@FortuneGT: No doubt. If this thing is going to take another two years to push out I'm not waiting. They should work really hard on getting an accurate release date for us, as then we will know whether we should use our "new every two" "deal" or hold off for a bit.

Can't see the video but the idea itself is awesome. I own Nuvi 680 and it's very responsive and fairly intuitive. I can see how they could just put a GSM chip in there and yowza, we've got ourselves a phone.
I'm loving this whole convergence thing! More and MORE!!!

I see nested menu navigation. Apparently the designers haven't learned ANYTHING from years of experience in portable devices.

@bubuli: agreed.
If you are having problems here, you can view the video over at Laptop Mag as the source suggests.

the guys says iPhone 9 times and Garmin zero times! It's so funny. A couple of things: This is not about features, its about platform, third party applications. There is a big change happening in the handset world. A year from now things will look very different.

I think the Nuvifone is going to be big... It's a actual proper GPS why buy a phone with GPS when you can get a GPS with a phone HAHA.
