Garmin-Asus, a co-branded alliance between Garmin Ltd. and ASUSTeK Computer Inc., just announced that the nuvifone M20–an all-in-one phone, mobile web-browser and premium navigation system–is now available with Windows Mobile 6.5. Users will be able to enjoy the host of improvements that Windows Mobile 6.5 provides, such as large touch-optimized icons, mobile applications via Windows Marketplace for Mobile, and the convenient Microsoft My Phone service.

With Windows Mobile 6.5, the new nuvifone M20 boasts interface improvements, such as large touch-optimized icons and a streamlined Home screen, and comes preloaded with Facebook. In addition, users will be able to take advantage of Microsoft Corp.’s Windows Marketplace for Mobile to easily download and install additional applications to their M20. The Windows Marketplace offers high quality mobile applications for free or purchase, from important business tools to popular social networking applications such as MySpace to games. Last but not least, the new My Phone service offers a wealth of features such as data migration, data auto-syncing, backup and restoration, remote data wiping, as well as viewing, syncing and sharing of photos across PC, phone and web platforms.

Garmin-Asus has blended its signature navigation centric user interface with Windows Mobile 6.5. “Through its innovative integration of a phone, navigator, and browser, the nuvifone M20 is designed to enhance the lives of consumers today,” said Benson Lin, Vice President and General Manager of the ASUS Handheld Business Group. “With Windows Mobile 6.5, users can enjoy the same great LBS (location-based service) features of the original nuvifone M20, but with a richer and more rewarding user experience.”
