At CTIA BG had a chance to check out the Garmin-Asus nüvifone M20 , an all-in-one cell phone, mobile web-browser and premium navigation system with a Windows Mobile operating system. The Nuvifone M20, unlike the company’s first device Nuvifone G60, will run on Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional, and is Windows Mobile 6.5-capable. The M20 is described as a phone with GPS functionality, while the G60 is more of a GPS with phone functionality.



The phone has a specification list which positions it among high-end devices: dual-band HSDPA, tri-band GSM, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, 4GB or 8GB internal memory, 2.8″ display with VGA resolution (480×640 pixels), a 3 megapixel camera. The way navigation is implemented in the M20 is awesome. The M20 has a presence app that will display a list of all of your buddies. Find a fellow and his or her position will be plotted on a map. Full HTML browsing is supported, via Opera, along with Word, Excel, PowerPoint and PDF documents. Sadly , the company declined to provide pricing or carrier information.
