Garmin has announced that they will be taking their first step into the mobile phone market by introducing their 3.5″ touch screen, multi-functional phone the nuvifone.
Though the phone market at the moment is already filled with competition for touch screen devices, Garmin is quite convinced that the nuvifone will surprise you as being not just any touch screen phone, it is the ‘ultimate multi-tasker’.
Just why might Garmin think so? Well to start with it is the only mobile phone device to have altogether on board integrate premium 3.5G mobile phone capability with internet browsing, data connectivity, personal messaging, and personal navigation functions.
Many already believe that this will be the Apple iPhone’s strongest competitor yet, the nuvifone will be the first ever device to include Google local search function as well as the ‘Where am I’ search capability. And because it’s a Garmin device, you will no doubt have access to Garmin Online for latest updates on real-time traffic, fuel prices, stock prices, sports and news and much more!
Not exactly sure whether to accept that these are real pics, but just shortly after the rumour that Windows 7 will set to launch in the coming year 2009 these pics have leaked into the internet. It’s said that Microsoft’s most intimate key partners were sent this latest addition of Microsoft product, see for yourself and what you think of it, could they be genuine?
There’s now a video too, Windows 7 certainly looks much like Vista to me though…

If you’re looking at this post, you are probably still pondering about whether or not to upgrade to the recent iPhone / iPod Touch 1.1.3 update and go for the 1.1.3 jailbreak which was released last week. Like many, the chances are that you must be worried about problems such as bricking or locking up your device. Hopefully in this post, by explaining and introducing the “Official 1.1.3 Upgrader” we will be able to help you make up your mind 
So here is how it works, if you already have a jailbroken iPhone or iPod Touch running the last firmware: 1.1.2, the iPhone dev team has now released a quick and easy way for you to upgrade straight from 1.1.2 to 1.1.3. The Official 1.1.3 Upgrader is an automatic, graphical method for upgrading to a jailbroken 1.1.3 device without any host computer interaction.
You might have read about something similar to this called ?iJailbreak?, it’s another similar jailbreak method not requiring any host computer at all but rather a solution not recommended by the iPhone dev team – so definitely don’t opt for the iJailbreak! What iJailbreak does is that it uses the same process as Nate True’s hack, meaning it breaks Nikita. (Nikita is the crucial component on the iPhone / iPod Touch responsible for installing signed official software, such as the iPod App Pack and SDK applications in the near future. And it is this component which ?Nate True?s jailbreak has disrupted.)
Anyway, the new method that we’re explain: Official 1.1.3 Upgrader, preserves Nikita and is also less prone to error. So here is how to use it…
