Last week we reported a rumor that said Garmin and Asus may be ending their partnership in early 2011. Today, we’re hearing more reports about the break-up and a more official announcement may be made tomorrow. Word is that Garmin may just close its smartphone business and continue on with making navigation devices. According to…
HTC is cranking out handsets like there’s no tomorrow, and now we’re hearing the launch of the HTC Knight, which could be called the Speedy, might be early January. The image above shows cases arriving at Sprint January 6, and it would make sense to assume that the handsets will be there, too. It would…
