Talk:Garmin nüvifone

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Apple's iPhone has been overhyped, and actually it is a 2G phone that is to survive a turbulence required to make a quantum leap to 3.5G phone. Multi-touch and a wider screen are something remarkable about iPhone,though cellphones featured with multi-touch and a wider screen have existed before the advent of iPhone. However, iPhone made a splashing debut and made Western consumers wide awake to the multi-touch wide-screen handsets. And this is an epoch-making event.

Nuvifone can trigger a kind of tipping point in mobile world, when it is launched. The reason is Garmin and TomTom felt entrenched as handset makers started to boost GPS phones in the year of 2007. GPS navigation embedded into mobile handsets posed a huge threat to PND and in-dash GPS navigators. This has prompted Garmin to design a portable GPS handset that can also snap onto the dashtop cradle. And it has a great significance in the timeline of mobile broadband industry, since it will help find a thawing permafrost for all-in-one mobile gadget on vehicle dashtop. It is premature to tell anything until the first generation of Nuvifone hits the market, but it will a tipping point in mobile gadgetry.Chmyr (talk) 02:24, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
