I thought about firing up my time machine and going back and warning myself not to buy it instead of the 3GS but was afraid the sight of myself would scare the hell out of me, even though at that point I already knew of the time machine.  Everyone I meat (delicious) tells me that the phone is lame and I shouldn't have bought it because people in Iran want me dead because of it? Anyways, I have to go now because the seaker destroyers are coming and I need to ready my camo.<br><br><br>Written from my AsusWTFeverPhone]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[nick]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 16th 2009 8:35AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Garmin-Asus G60 slated for August launch, will be last non-Android Linux phone for the couple]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/16/garmin-asus-g60-slated-for-august-launch-will-be-last-non-andro/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/16/garmin-asus-g60-slated-for-august-launch-will-be-last-non-andro/</guid><description><![CDATA[not funny = fail.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[AnnoyingPoster]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 16th 2009 10:15AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Garmin-Asus G60 slated for August launch, will be last non-Android Linux phone for the couple]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/16/garmin-asus-g60-slated-for-august-launch-will-be-last-non-andro/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/16/garmin-asus-g60-slated-for-august-launch-will-be-last-non-andro/</guid><description><![CDATA[Has anyone here tried or have an Android phone?

This release has success written all over it<br>/sarcasm.<br><br>Seriously though, for ppl who've followed these half-hearted POS (G1, Storm) releases know that this is scheduled for doom. There's barely any display of software, any info about the device, phones have already come out with GPS receivers and A LOT of phones have turn-by-turn from Garmin installed in them.<br>This device is WAYYY behind it's time and I have a doubt ANYONE would see a functioning device before 2010. It's so pathetically predictable, it almost makes me want to buy one out of pity.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Abhishek]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 16th 2009 10:12AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Garmin-Asus G60 slated for August launch, will be last non-Android Linux phone for the couple]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/16/garmin-asus-g60-slated-for-august-launch-will-be-last-non-andro/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/16/garmin-asus-g60-slated-for-august-launch-will-be-last-non-andro/</guid><description><![CDATA[I am intrested in seeing how Asus will play this off, they already have a great laptop/netbook lineup.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[duplicatedecoy]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 16th 2009 10:25AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Garmin-Asus G60 slated for August launch, will be last non-Android Linux phone for the couple]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/16/garmin-asus-g60-slated-for-august-launch-will-be-last-non-andro/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/16/garmin-asus-g60-slated-for-august-launch-will-be-last-non-andro/</guid><description><![CDATA[i need someone's opinion here...<br><br>my Nokia E50 died a few weeks ago, and i'm running off a crappy GoPhone now.  i'm an AT&T customer and am eligible for an upgrade.  i was waiting for the N97, but decided to cancel my pre-order due to slight disappointment.  now, this Nuviphone is sick, but it might** hit select regions come August.  i'm tired of waiting because this GoPhone is a piece of shit.<br><br>should i just pick up an iPhone 3GS for now and get the Garmin later (unsubsidized of course), or save the monehs and just wait for Garmin or i8910 w/o 850 3g??  what do the trolls think?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[teej]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 16th 2009 11:24AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Garmin-Asus G60 slated for August launch, will be last non-Android Linux phone for the couple]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/16/garmin-asus-g60-slated-for-august-launch-will-be-last-non-andro/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/16/garmin-asus-g60-slated-for-august-launch-will-be-last-non-andro/</guid><description><![CDATA[*and i'm not a big iphone fan.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[teej]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 16th 2009 11:24AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Garmin-Asus G60 slated for August launch, will be last non-Android Linux phone for the couple]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/16/garmin-asus-g60-slated-for-august-launch-will-be-last-non-andro/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/16/garmin-asus-g60-slated-for-august-launch-will-be-last-non-andro/</guid><description><![CDATA[No matter what, I would say that if you haven't ever played with an iPhone before, you should definitely try to spend some time with one, using the web browser and application store.<br>I'm not an Apple fanboy and I don't own an iPhone (Stuck on Verizon), but all the anti-iPhone haters are missing out on a great device, <br>particularly now that the 3GS will be out in a week and fills all the previous gaps in functionality.<br><br>If you can't stand not having a physical keyboard, and have to have something now from AT&T, I'd get the BB bold.<br><br>If I were you (and I didn't want an iPhone) and you could stand waiting a little while, I'd wait for the fall as there are many large touchscreen phones running Android coming out with fast T.I OMAP3 or Qualcomm Snapdragon chipsets.
