They try to beat the iPhone but they just cant see what makes the iPhone so great. Of course the iPhone design is unique, but till they doesnt have a software like the iPhone has and such (the iphone Mac OSX is pretty fast when it comes to touch sensitivity). So in my opinion this will only be an other failer to beat the iPhone.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Balint]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 27th 2008 4:57PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Garmin's Nuvifone teases its way through another trade show]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/27/garmins-nuvifone-teases-its-way-through-another-trade-show/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/27/garmins-nuvifone-teases-its-way-through-another-trade-show/</guid><description><![CDATA[You're pretty awesome if you can tell all of that from a picture.<br><br>Go away.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Matt]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 27th 2008 5:02PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Garmin's Nuvifone teases its way through another trade show]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/27/garmins-nuvifone-teases-its-way-through-another-trade-show/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/27/garmins-nuvifone-teases-its-way-through-another-trade-show/</guid><description><![CDATA[Ok, here is an amazingly radical idea.

By far the worst, most confusing, not user friendly way to manage media.  I've had several Garmin devices which were always solid-- I would hope that adding media to the Nuviphone will as simple as drag and drop and not all the syncing crap that Itunes makes you do.

I have had a few hours alone with the nuvifone, and personally own an iphone, and think the nuvifone will be a fine competitor. It may crash, but that's due to prototype software. The texting app works great and is easy to use, and the navigation is as good, if not better than any other nuvi. It will work great, they just need to finish up on some final tweaking. The feature that really sets the nuvifone apart, is the fact that from any screen in the entire device, if you find/recieve and address, you can immediately navigate to it, as well as send it to other people. It supports geotagging, and has a chat application. It includes a full web browser and such. It will do just fine.<br><br>P.S. - one thing that I find very nice, is that the screen will auto-rotate on any screen in the UI, no matter what. Where with the iphone, it only rotates when viewing pictures, listening to music, or using the web browser.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Jarhead111]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 27th 2008 5:48PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Garmin's Nuvifone teases its way through another trade show]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/27/garmins-nuvifone-teases-its-way-through-another-trade-show/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/27/garmins-nuvifone-teases-its-way-through-another-trade-show/</guid><description><![CDATA[here we have the here we have the nuvifone... watch as it conveniently freezes and the battery dies... <br><br>this thing looks like it'll be released obsolete.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[StalematE]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 27th 2008 6:00PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Garmin's Nuvifone teases its way through another trade show]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/27/garmins-nuvifone-teases-its-way-through-another-trade-show/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/27/garmins-nuvifone-teases-its-way-through-another-trade-show/</guid><description><![CDATA[StalematE, try to write your replies sober next time.
