Folks, this one is an EXCLUSIVE, brought to you thanks to an anonymous friend. He was lucky enough to get his hands on the new GPS specific cellphone made by garmin, the GarminFone.
According to our tipster, the device is a modified Android device, which has a customized menu system that allows you utilize the built in GPS (Which, unlike Google Maps, does not require a internet connection.) However, it does not neglect exclusive and important internet functions, such as traffic, that you’d normally have to pay for extra on a TomTom or exclusive GPS Device.
Most interesting is a app labeled “Garmin Voice Studio.” Looks like the next favorite voice on your GPS will be you!
In a detailed examination, one can see the Android Taskbar, and the seamless integration into Garmin’s navigation system. This seems like an amazing plus for us avid GPS users. We normally have to shell out 100-200 dollars alone for GPS, and Garmin solves that problem in one fowl swoop! Rather get a GPS device dedicated to your car, this ensure seamless integration, POI, Traffic Status, Flight Status, and most exciting, the best voice out there for your GPS. You can also catch an Android Marketplace icon in the blur of on the photos below
Coming Soon, PPCGP Guy Voice Navigation!
