Just like most of you out there, I love reading tech blogs. From Gizmodo to GearLive, I probably blaze through about 30 different sites every day looking for the latest and greatest tech news and info. Among the top tech blogs in my rotation is a site called LifeOnMyMobile.com. This is a site that covers all things mobile and wireless and recently at CTIA, I ran into Jonathon Nguyen, one of their top writers. We ended up sitting down in the Sprint EVO 4G launch area where he let me interview him about CTIA, the next big phone, and a whole more! Check it out!

Well a website that would cover all of your needs then is this one you’ve probably heard about called CNET.com.

Recently, we had the great opportunity to get some face time with CNET’s very own super mobile reporter, Bonnie Cha, at CTIA in Las Vegas.

Video Demo: Sprint Navigation (powered by TeleNav) on the Samsung Moment

Nov 3rd

Posted by Todd Witkemper in TeleNav News

Well, the new phones continue to come down the pipeline and the latest is the Samsung Moment for the Sprint Network. The Moment is an Android based device and after having the chance to play around with it, I must say it’s one very slick device. And even better, Sprint Navigation (powered by TeleNav) worked beautifully on the device, with the large touch screen providing an excellent view of the application for easy navigation.

We decided to hop in the car and take the Samsung Moment and Sprint Navigation for a quick spin. It was around lunch time and I was craving some Indian food, so you’ll see in the video that we conducted a search for Indian restaurants in our area. Some of the features you’ll see in the demo video include visual and audio turn-by-turn directions, full text-to-speech including spoken street names, real-time traffic information and our point of interests search including rated listings.

The Samsung Moment hit stores this past Sunday, November 1. If you’re looking for a new phone and want something that will make your friends jealous, the Samsung Moment may be the phone for you. If you’ve already picked one up, tell us what you think about Sprint Navigation. We always appreciate your feedback.

Video Demo: AT&T Navigator (Powered by TeleNav) on the Pantech Reveal

Oct 23rd

Posted by Todd Witkemper in TeleNav News

AT&T and Pantech launched a new device this week, the Pantech Reveal, which is Pantech’s first “single-slider” phone. Overall, the phone has a nice feel to it and the inclusion of two key pads, the number pad when the slider is closed and the full keyboard when it’s open, makes it very handy to use. You can quickly dial a number with the slider closed and easily slide out the keyboard for messaging purposes. But perhaps the best feature in our humble opinion is that the phone comes preloaded with AT&T Navigator (powered by TeleNav).

We decided to take the Pantech Reveal out for a little spin and test some of the features included in AT&T Navigator on the phone. And because sharing is caring, we thought we’d bring along a video camera to show you the application in action. As you can see, it was very easy for me to find the destination I wanted to drive to and head out on my way. Some of the features you’ll see in the video include onscreen and voice turn-by-turn directions, text-to-speech (i.e. turn right on Kifer Road, not just turn right), real-time traffic alerts and the ease in which the POI database can be used to find a location.

Enjoy the video and if you picked up a Reveal or are planning to, let us know what you think of AT&T Navigator on the phone.
