Mio used Computex to launch two new GPS phones – Leap K1 and Leap G50. The first one, Leap K1, we initially saw at this year’s CES in Las Vegas. The dual-sided device sports a flat panel navigation system on one side, and a regular phone on the other. It features Bluetooth support, some camera and the MioMap 2008 navigation software.
Then there’s the Mio Leap G50, the GPS-equipped Windows Mobile 6.1 smartphone, which thanks to Microsoft’s mobile OS offers alot more from navigation. The device sports a 2.8-inch touchscreen with “intuitive finger tip control,” MioMap 2008 software, 2 megapixel camera, Bluetooth. 400Mhz CPU provides all the processing power device requires…
Both phones will be launched in Asia in the Q3 2008. No word when or whether they’ll hit Europe and/or North America.

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
