    It also looks a like my Palm Centro. I'm weary of Windows Mobile. I like my cheap Sprint SERO plan too much to look at the better smartphones (Apple, Android ones, or the new Palm Pre) right now.

    Godsdammit. I hate that Frakking Clown. He was the bane of my April 1st this year.


    Question is though how will Blackberry either compete with this, or are they gonna sue for copyright infringement on their Pearl design...?

    @JYHASH: I don't believe they can copyright the use of the trackball. Sidekicks use a similar control method as well.

    In reply to Garmin Nuvi 880 Voice-Controlled GPS Lightning Review
    I have a Nuvi and I love it, although there's parts of it that seem anachronistically meh, like a touchscreen that's flabby and irresponsive, and directions that sometimes send you in nonsensical trajectories. On the other hand, sometimes it figures out amazing shortcuts that make me want to throw it up in the air and kiss it when it comes back down.


    Voice control would be awesome as long as it's easy to take the remote off the wheel so it doesn't advertise a stowed GPS in your dashboard when parked, and easy to replace, so you don't have to feel anxious about loosing it.


    Also, it would be awesome if you could verbally prompt it in real time rather than communicate with it solely by driving in opposition to its directions and having it scold you "recalculating... recalculating..." It's like, you know it's directing you wrong, you know you're going to reject its suggestions, it would be better just to tell it your preferences ("avoid Hamster Avenue, go up Maple") than to ignore it and wait for it to catch up.


    But yea, Nuvi's are awesome. It's like getting opposable thumbs and wondering how you got along without them. One thing though is that their 5000 different models are kind of confusing, and they should make an upgrade path - beyond a feature here, a feature there - clearer to customers.
