Mio A701 Smartphone w/ intergrated GPS

[Vuvision]

Not sure if this has been posted yet. The Mio A701 is rumored to debut in Q4-2005. Clean ID packaging externally, can't wait to see more reviews on this phone. Certainly has the look & smell of my next phone :wink: ... wonder how much my STM5600 will go for on ebay a few months from now. :?

My wife saw these pictures the other day and she wants one. I'm not sure what that means yet, but I'm guessing I'll have to pick one up for her at some point. ;) I really like the styling of this phone, but I could care less about the GPS.

The phone runs Pocket PC Phone Edition, so we haven't posted it to the front page here. I think it is being talked about a lot over at our sister site, Pocket PC Thoughts. (http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com)
