  • Garmin navigation included with phone, Includes live Yellowpages.com search, Comes with a window mount
  • Live services cost extra, Poor GPS reception around skyscrapers, Slow Web browser, No app store
  • Garmin’s attempt to crack the wireless market is a good navigator but a mediocre smart phone.
