Tom Tom iPhone Car Kit
The overpriced Tom Tom car kit is available for purchase now for a whopping $119. Pair the $119 cradle with the $99 app and you are out the price of an iPhone to have a cradle and turn-by-turn GPS. Video after the break.
Casio Exilim CA003 – A Cell Phone With 12MP Camera And Optical Zoom

Garmin Nuvi 255W Review
The good: The Garmin Nuvi 255W has a large 4.3-inch touch screen and a clean and easy to use interface. The operating system, trip routing/rerouting is faster than most competitor products we have tested. The “where am I?” feature is handy for emergencies.
