Garmin-Asus nuvifone M10 gets handled, reviewed in the wilds of Russia

We just heard about Garmin-Asus' WinMo 6.5.3-packin' M10 yesterday, and already the handset has been broken out for a photo shoot and hands-on review in Russia. The design itself isn't anything otherworldly, but we have to say -- we're kind of digging the user interface. Granted, we've a soft spot in our hearts for Garmin's nuvi line of PNDs, so anything remotely familiar gets a big thumbs-up 'round these parts. At any rate, critics noted that the phone was a pleasant mix of WinMo and nuvi, which is something that really sets it apart from other Windows Mobile-based offerings. There's nary a mention of exactly how awesome this thing would be with Windows Mobile 7, but if you're in no hurry to ponder the next big thing, give that source link a look.

Garmin-Asus proclaims Nuvifone M10, A50

Much like last year, Garmin-Asus got a head start on Mobile World Congress 2010 and announced two latest superfluities to its line of GPS-enabled smartphones, the Nuvifone M10 and the Nuvifone A50.

Assured since 2009, the Garmin-Asus Nuvifone A50 is the business’s first Google Android gadget and traits all the usual Google and Android facilities, comprising Google search by voice, Gmail, Google Maps, YouTube, and Android Market. Furthermore, the A50 bids Microsoft Exchange support for e-mail, calendar, and contacts.
In the interim, the Garmin-Asus Nuvifone M10 will run Windows Mobile 6.5.3 and has some inimitable facets to help customers more simply access their apps and multitask. First, there’s 3D Task Manager that will agree you to switch between running submissions and second, there’s somewhat called Billboard, which will show a user’s most important info at a glimpse.
The M10 has many of the similar GPS features as the A10 and the navigation purposes are related into your calendar, contacts, e-mail, Web browser, and messaging apps. You’ll also be able to geo-tag any pictures you take with the phone’s 5-megapixel camera and share them via Facebook or Picasa.
