Garmin just announced Garmin Mobile XT, maps and software packed into a microSD card, that turns select smartphones with GPS into Garmin navigators. What is different about Mobile XT is that in addition to static preloaded maps it also provides access to dynamic content like real-time traffic alerts and fuel prices, without any monthly fees.Currently Garmin offers maps for North America and Europe on this microSD card where NA version includes United States, Canada and Puerto Rico. The software will kick into action once the card is inserted into a compatible smartphone with embedded GPS and users will see the familiar “Where to?” and “View map” welcome screen.
Garmin Mobile XT also includes a new feature called PeerPoints that lets users to send their position to any other phone and also navigate to precise location of other users. Garmin Mobile XT is already for sale for $99. Maps will come from Navteq which was recently bought by Nokia.
