24 Feb 09 Point-I to develop detachable GPS recievers for cell phones

For those still in love with their old handsets that ain’t got the much-touted GPS feature, you better watch Point-I’s labors closely.  The Korean company is supposedly working on something called “TocToc” GPS, an add-on that would provide the same kind of functionality offered by onboard GPS receivers with map support to boot, as evidenced by the picture above.  There is no information if this requires a smartphone to work on or will work on any kind of operating system.

Whether this will be a Korea-only affair or if the whole world stands to benefit is still unknown at this time, but we will as always keep you posted if something comes up.
