I liked the idea that it has that optional accessory you can attach inside your car for some hands-free turn-by-turn assistance (was actually looking for a similar cradle for my iPhone 3G and Nokia 5800).

The phone will have the pre-installed maps by Garmin which has been providing LBS devices for decades (so this phone might offer better performance in the GPS department). There’s no word on the price yet but Asus and Garmin is epxcted to release this model before end of the 2nd quarter of 2009. The two also earlier announced the Garmin-Asus G60.

This reminds me of when Sony teamed up with Ericsson years ago. Hope this tie-up will produce more choices for consumers.
