Mio Plans 3G GPS PDA Phones for 2008
Posted by Darius Wey in "NEWS" @ 03:00 PM
"Taiwan-based GPS navigation device maker Mio Technology is expected to expand its product mix to include 3G GPS PDA phones in the second half of 2008, according to market sources. Mio's move is a countermeasure against the strategy adopted by a number of handset vendors, including High Tech Computer (HTC), Asustek Computer, E-Ten Information Systems and BenQ, who have all extended their smartphone product lines to include 3G GPS smartphones, the sources noted."
Sources indicate that Mio's upcoming 3G- and GPS-capable devices should incorporate Qualcomm's 3.5G platform and support TMC, LBS, and photo navigation. Sadly, not much else is known at this stage, although we'll keep our eyes and ears open for more information and fill you in when we can.
