Garmin Asus Garminfone
T-Mobile Will Carry Android Powered Garminfone
T-Mobile today announced upcoming availability of the Garminfone, a new Android tablet phone from Garmin. The Garminfone uses a 3.5-inch touchscreen, and seems to feature an interface similar to previous Garmin phones, such as the Garmin Nuvifone on AT&T. The new Android phone features multiple positioning technologies and a host of software from Garmin, including navigation with preloaded maps, so turn-by-turn directions should still work even in areas without a T-Mobile data signal. The Garminfone even comes with a car finder app, as well as plenty of geo-tagging capabilities and location based search information. The Garminfone even features Garmin Voice Studio, which lets other people, hopefully friends and family, record custom voice directions for you. The phone will ship with a charging window and dashboard mount. Specific pricing and availability have yet to be announced, but T-Mobile says it should be in customers' hands later this spring.
