It'll be interested to see what the third party app support is like.

It's GPS soul is very strong (of course is a Garmin product), but looks like they haven't forgotten about integration with the camera (geotagging out of the box) and a suite of PIM applications.

I hope it runs Linux. A few icons are very close to the Maemo ones.

Seems cool. I don't understand whether the screen resolution will be that high (images are about 1400 x 800!!!)

They're layout examples, meaning not real product screenshots. (Which can be a good or bad thing, depending how you look at it.) The device screen certainly can't have that resolution.

The specs are already almost two years old, and the reviews haven't been very good. I waited for well over a year for the Nuvifone to be released, then saw the N900 and forgot about the Garmin. I just hope I haven't gotten into the same situation with the N900!
