Mar 24 Garmin Mobile XT Navigation Software for Windows Mobile Published
Found in:Reviews, Software, GPS, Navigation, Windows Mobile, Garmin Mobile XT Navigation Software for Windows Mobile Published

Navigation software these days is one of the very much used ones when it comes to Windows Mobile devices. That's why I am sharing with you this nice review of Garmin Mobile XT for Windows Mobile made by Gears from CoolSmartphone.com.

Garmin Mobile XT is a good bit of kit, don't get me wrong. The range of options and the navigation details are great. Little tweaks like the track logs, auto dimming screen and the ability to quickly find petrol stations, hotels and cash machines in your local area are all fab. However, I was a little disappointed with some of the default settings of the program - that auto-zoom does my head in and I couldn't seem to shake off the GPS lag at times. It could that I need to adjust the baud rate on my settings, but this program sets the GPS up automatically when it can, so I'm hoping it didn't get things wrong. There's also those few niggles with the country selection but, for just over ฃ50 with free traffic updates, you've got to work this all into the equation.

Jun 07 Mio A702 with GPS and 3.2MP Camera show its face at Computex
Found in:Mio, Pocket PC, Windows Mobile 6 Professional, Devices, Mobile News, GPS, Mio A702 with GPS and 3.2MP Camera show its face at Computex

Computex 2007 has lot of pleasant surprises for us and one of them is Mio A702. It is latest Windows Mobile powered Mio phone and is scheduled for a release sometime in the next half year. Powered by latest Windows Mobile 6 Professional operation system the device includes GPS, a 3.2-megapixel camera, a numeric keypad, a scroll wheel, and a microSD slot.

Interesting about Mio A702 is the SiRFstarIII with SiRFinstantFix and the Navsteadi. Navsteadi is a novelty based on SiRFDiRect technology that apparently corrects wandering tracks typical of high-sensitivity GPS chipsets like SiRFstarIII in very degraded environments such as urban canyons, and it appears to be quite efficient.

I wish i had more information for this new Mio smartphone, but that's all for the moment.
