Garmin-Asus not dead, revived for the Mobile World Congress with Android and Windows Mobile

At a time when many large manufacturers are betting on Android operating system, it is normal as smaller companies also make a 180 ° and pointed in the direction of Android. One of the latest is the strange union of a hardware company such as Asus and GPS as Garmin, which resulted Garmin-Asus. His goal was to create phones but with a very important principal component, the GPS, which obviously came from the hand of Garmin.

Some of his models hit the market but have been a failure, expensive, not very well designed and with an interface that leaves much to be desired. They have not let criticism affect them and thus continue with new terminals. We now know that arrive at Mobile World Congres with its first handset based on Android and evidently repeated entree with GPS software.

Garmin-Asus is not the most successful manufacturers today, despite having a not very good early models, the 2010 have the intention to come with about 4 or 5 new handsets, using both Android and Windows Mobile, which incidentally is also expected to show one of these Windows Phone, specifically the M10 nüvifone.

On this terminal, nüvifone M10, not much is known, come with Windows Mobile 6.5.3 and will be a touch-sensitive 3.5-inch, 5 megapixel comrade and 600MHz processor. Some features that although not say much for now, I do not move from a terminal with a good midrange GPS chip inside.

Garmin, Asus has not had much success in the mobile, perhaps much of the problem is that their terminal operating systems currently used are not in the focus of application developers, because in the end all phones in a certain range include GPS or A-GPS that can guide you, buy a mobile because it has better GPS than the rest does not seem an option knowing that the new M10 would cost about $ 435.
