Garmin is well known for their very nice GPS software, and loadable maps.  Make the nuviPhone 90% one of their nuvi devices and I think they'll do OK.  Garmin makes a WIDE variety of handheld GPSs, this one will happen to make calls, too.  Any other strategy and I think they'll get lost in the crowded smartphone market.<br><br>It'd be fun if they'd pull a TomTom and port their navigation software to the iPhone, too.  GPS hardware has (mostly) become commoditized like the PC market.  Garmin could show they have the edge with software.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[jasenj1]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 17th 2008 1:56PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Garmin Nuvifone touched, prodded, abused, initial UI reports are positive]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/17/garmin-nuvifone-touched-prodded-abused-initial-ui-reports-are/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/17/garmin-nuvifone-touched-prodded-abused-initial-ui-reports-are/</guid><description><![CDATA[my thoughts exactly....]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[PEZ]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 17th 2008 2:49PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Garmin Nuvifone touched, prodded, abused, initial UI reports are positive]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/17/garmin-nuvifone-touched-prodded-abused-initial-ui-reports-are/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/17/garmin-nuvifone-touched-prodded-abused-initial-ui-reports-are/</guid><description><![CDATA[you can already install Garmin's mapping software on Symbian devices w/ GPS antennas.
