Garmin-Asus A10 sneak peek
Many Android users have been looking for an alternative GPS application for their Android devices. While we have some pretty good ones like Co-Pilot and Papago, what they really need is a solidly integrated GPS application that is not only reliable but also fast, seemless and has a neat interface. The big problem is, they have been using pioneer GPS wares for their navigation use like Garmin and TomTom and have been spoilt to get the best. Not only that, they want a phone that can run the GPS application without quenching their data plans and can run in places where there is no data signal.
Not only that, cheaper GPS hardwares started to include other stuff into the package too such as music player, Bluetooth connection, image and video viewer. So what if you could have all this integrated into a neat Android device? How awesome would it be to be able to use your Android phone to navigate at pedestrian level as well as driving mode? If this sounds too good to be true, behold, the new Garmin-Asus A10 GPS-smartphone!
This phone is bound to make its official appearance on the September 28th 2010 so all you Garmin fanatics, start breaking your piggy banks because the first Garmin-enabled Android device is coming to your stores! Never lose your route ever again. I have to tell you guys, this phone seriously ROCKS!
The hardware itself is very elegant. Chrome plate around the shell and the glossy screen blends very well! The back cover has a feel like the Nexus One’s back cover making this device comfortable in your palms. It has two hardkeys including the Power switch at the top and the volume button on the side of the phone. There are three softkeys including the return, home and options.
I got my device today and will be playing with it for a while. A very detailed review will be following up soon. The reviews will be posted on three locations:
1. LowYat.net’s Android board
2. LegenDroid’s General Discussion and Support section
3. My personal blog
You can subscribe to any of these to keep yourself updated. I can only say one thing for now. “Hold your breath” 
Here are some sneak peeks of the Garmin-Asus A10:
Cheers~

@Alfred Goh, Yeah, it supports both Traditional and Simplified Chinese interface. With just a tap on the language box, the whole global settings for language changes to chinese. As far as the input is concerned, the A10 comes with 4 different chinese keyboards:
1. Chinese Handwriting
2. Chinese Pinyin
3. Chinese Stroke
4. Chinese Zhuyin -

rear bumper and brackets and replaced it with a 65″ long 3″
dia. Remember though, fish doesn’t get better with age – use it or lose it.
A bigger fridge costs more to run, especially if it’s mostly empty (as more cold air escapes when you open it) so if you
live alone, a fridge which is only a quarter full is costing you
too much money to run.My website … deck plans fletcher class destroyer
