Nuviphone, Dominos in Geo News
Garmin has, as some expected, launched its first phone, which focuses on navigation. It's called the nuviphone. Garmin doesn't yet have any information on its website, but there's plenty of coverage elsewhere, including at Engadget and the Kansas City Star.
Also, word from Dominos you can now track your pizza order to your door - at least from 3,200 outlets. But, it's really a "what step is it at" tracking, there's no geo involved. From the PR:
Once customers place an order, they can go to www.dominos.com and click on the Pizza Tracker icon. They will see a horizontal bar that lights up red as each step in the process is completed. Customers will see confirmation of their order being received by the store; when it's being prepared; when it's been placed in the oven; when it's been boxed and placed in the Domino's HeatWave(TM) bag; and finally, when it's on its way for delivery.
Still, Dominos has applied for a patent on the technology.
