I guess that if the Garmin Nuvifone G60 is a GPS smartphone, the Garmin Nuvifone M20 Windows Mobile is a smartphone GPS. It’s quite smaller than the G60, but the demo didn’t work quite right.
Garmin-Asus will launch the M20, a Windows Mobile 6.1 phone, sometime this year. True to the name, this cute touchscreen handset comes with car dock and a full set of GPS maps for deep-country use.
Though Garmin-Asus’ Nuvifone M20 may soon steal the spotlight, the original phone—now called G60—will still be first to market. Here are its final specs, and a new screenshot gallery of the Garmin-designed interface.
Forget Eee Phones: Garmin and Asus have created a strategic alliance to design, build and sell co-branded Nuvifones, starting with the original one—now called G60—and probably moving towards Windows Mobile and Android.
