Hualu UCG501 iPhonesque MID

23. April 2009

One can’t deny the ubiquity of the iPhone design nowadays. The Hualu UCG501 is perhaps the first MID to closely adopt that design. Too bad it appears to be lacking automatic orientation. The Hualu UCG501 has 5 inches (800 x 480) of screen space that should be touch controlled but no mention of it, though it [...]

Garmin-Asus nuvifone G60 coming in June

17. April 2009

2 Comments

The Garmin-Asus alliance caught some of us off-guard, but if a merger is what’s needed to get a quality product out in the market then we’re certainly not against it. That seems to be the case with the Nuviphone. Now known as the nuvifone G60, it was first announced in early 2008, but it is [...]

Motorola Evoke QA4 GPS Phone

31. March 2009

1 Comment

I’m not sure Moto should compete with the Apple iPhone at this point in time, but looking at the home screen of the Motorola Evoke QA4, it’s undeniable they want to take a piece of the iPhone market share, specifically that segment that needs navigation features on their phone. The Motorola Evoke QA4 has a [...]

Sony Ericsson T707 GPS Phone Unveiled

27. March 2009

0 Comments

SE hasn’t had an interesting announcement since Xperia, which was more air than substance, and the T707 is not likely to get SE back in a competitive form. That’s probably why they’ve hired Maria Sharapova, a beautiful former tennis star, who like Sony Ericsson has been on top before–though not necessarily in the game of [...]

More GPS Personal Navigator: FineDrive iQ500

4. March 2009

1 Comment

Doesn’t the bottom right just below the screen say Oil Save? Yes it does and this Korean PMP could save drivers a lotta oil with the built-in GPS. I’m not so sure I like the model name, though iQ500 isn’t exactly a name you’d want to mention especially when smart kids are inside the van. [...]

GPS Phone: Mio Explora K70

3. March 2009

1 Comment

Mio has announced a GPS phone before, this touchscreen phone with Mitac UI but we never heard of it again. The K70 or Explore seems to be a more earnest announcement. It’s beautiful, too. It doesn’t run Windows CE anymore but Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional and it looks way better than Garmin’s Nuviphone. The specs are [...]

Garmin-Asus outs Windows Mobile-powered M20

12. February 2009

After announcing their new partnership and announcing the nuvifone G60, it looks like Garmin’s got a second wind as far as producing mobile phones are concerned as their new label, Garmin-Asus, has unveiled yet another phone in their nuvifone series, the M20. It’s another Windows Mobile-based touchscreen that comes with a 2.8-inch VGA display, 3-megapixel [...]

Garmin, Asus join forces; nuvifone G60 first offering

4. February 2009

4 Comments

We’ve already heard about the Garmin Nuvifone before, and while it has made numerous appearances, it hasn’t quite made it to the market yet. However, that might all change now that Garmin and Asus have joined forces in producing this new line of mobile phones. Garmin will obviously be in-charge of the navigational software while [...]

Mio Outs Touchscreen GPS Phone

2. December 2008

1 Comment

The new Mio GPS phone will be a touchscreen one. This is yet unnamed and is smaller than the Nuvifone from Garmin and may even come sooner than the bigger iPhone killer. Specs includes Windows CE OS, Mitac’s “Spirit” UI, a 3.2 MP camera and 3.5G connectivity. [via engadget]

I apologize for the awkward title but we’ve been noticing lately how some PNDs and UMPCs fit the needs of individuals looking for a versatile portable entertainment device. The Porient H12 is the successor of the H9. What it brings to the table in the UMPC category is awesome portability without cutting back on features. [...]
