Early this year we gave you the lowdown on details for Garmin's Nuvifone. We hoped that it would be out sometime soon, but news is that the phone has been delayed. A head of their Q2 earnings call, Garmin has announced that the Nuvifone will be out only by early 2009. This what they had to say:
The nuvifone will not be available in fourth quarter as previously
announced. While we had hoped to have carrier launches in the fourth quarter, we
have found that meeting some of the carrier specific requirements will take
longer than anticipated. We remain pleased with carrier interest in the device
and are working toward making necessary design changes to meet their
requirements. We anticipate launching the product during the first half of
2009.
