Garmin Nuvifone G60 in UK Early 2010


The Garmin Nuvifone G60 is a GPS device with mobile phone ability; basically it’s a satnav with a phone. One of the main advantages of this new device is you don’t need to download all the maps and it doubles as a hands-free car kit. Garmin and rival TomTom have other hands-free GPS units that let you do this by connecting your Bluetooth phone to the GPS device but none quite as swish as the G60.

With Wi-Fi capability and 5-meg camera the Nuvifone has a very nice geo-location feature that tags photos to let you know exactly where they were snapped. It also features an array of location based services (LBS) technology and a very useful “last position” attribute that navigates you back to a pre-determined point of origin such as you car after a big shopping fest. Other features include a 3.5-inch WVGA resistive touch screen, 3G connectivity, 2.5mm headphone jack and 2GB of expandable internal memory.

 

Initially rolled out last October in the USA the G60 is set to debut in the UK early 2010, watch this space as they’re predicted to fly off the shelves.
