It’s been a while since we saw anything new from Mio, but now we know what they have been up to. After making their mark in the GPS business, they now aim to get some market share in this cell phone crazy world with the Leap K1 and Leap G50. Like the nuvifone, both these Mio products are GPS centric, with a cell phone thrown in afterwards. Of the two, the Leap K1 is a bit different from your normal mobile. The Leap K1 features dual displays, one for each side of its body. A user-friendly interface dominates one side while the other side is wholly dedicated to GPS navigation. Other than that, both the Leap K1 and Leap G50 are similar in what they offer with a 2.8-inch TFT touchscreen with intuitive fingertip control, Bluetooth, MioMap 2008 interface with specialized navigation modes and preloaded POIs, a two megapixel camera, media player, and a 400Mhz processor for fast route calculations, all running on Windows Mobile 6.1. Both phones support GSM quad-band networks with speeds topping out at EDGE.
