Garmin, in collaboration with Asus has come up with a phone that combines the power of Garmin’s GPS technology with phone. Garmin-Aus Nuviphone is available from AT&T for $199. The phone provides a complete range of GPS functionality from this article in cellcompare, alongwith other smartphone features such as camera. The phone comes preloaded with maps so the user need not download the entire map while on the road.

Would I replace my GPS with a GPS phone? Probably not.

Via Scott, iRiver P35 PMP will have Flash Lite 3. iRiver has been shipping devices based on Flash Lite for some time and the latest gadget has Flash UI as well as games. The device will also offer optional DVB TV tuner and WiFi. Check out the specs on iRiver home page. Looks like P35 is available only in Korea though.

I thought I’d look around and create a list all the embedded devices (excluding cell phones) that support Flash Lite. The list is short to be honest, but I am sure there are more. The list is based on my knowledge and public information available and should be of interest to anyone who is tracking the Flash Lite development outside of mobile world.  I will keep adding to this list as I find more devices.
