\nAccording to Garmin-ASUS, \u201cThe n\u00fcvifone G60 is on schedule for delivery in Europe and in the United States in the second half of 2009, and additional details about pricing, availability and carriers will be announced in the coming months.\u201d However, the word \u201con schedule\u201d is probably a bit out of purpose here for a phone that Garmin has delayed for over 12 months. What was looking like a high profile phone when announced in January 2008 is now playing catch up with Android devices and the iconical iPhone which version 3.0 of its operating system is now opened to turn-by-turn navigation.<\/p>\n
