Garmin Asus A10 comes with a focus on pedestrian navigation

May 3rd, 2010

The Garmin Asus collaboration unveiled a new addition to their lineup of navigation centered mobile phones.  The recent addition comes in the form of the Garmin Asus A10 which is a full touch phone running on the Android OS platform but with a focus on pedestrian navigation in Europe and Asia Pacific.  The Garmin Asus A10 comes equipped with a 3.2 inch HVGA display, electronic compass, and long lasting 1500mAh battery.  The device will also come with detailed maps preloaded so that a constant internet connection is not necessary.  At long last, some interesting competition for the iPhone.

In car navigation will also be covered with the Garmin Asus A10 as the mobile device will come with a dashboard mount as well.  The mount will have speakers built in which will allow for amplification of the device’s voice commands making it easy to hear and understand.  While Garmin Asus has not revealed all of the details about the A10 it is expected to come with a 5 megapixel camera as well.  The Garmin Asus A10 is expected to be available in Europe in mid 2010.  There has been no word as of yet of how much this new mobile device will cost.

If you are constantly on the go and walking around a big city or taking public transportation the Garmin Asus A10 might just be the mobile device you have been looking for.  You will never need to use battery draining mobile apps again to find your way around a big, unfamiliar city.  With the Garmin Asus A10 and its built in preexisting map feature you will not have to drain as much battery life while you use your mobile device to find your way around town.  I will be extremely interested to see what other features are included with this very mobile handheld device and if it will give the Nexus One a run for its money.
