Every once in a while we’re reminded that Garmin’s Nuvifone — announced nearly a year ago — still exists, and this time around it’s none other than the FCC doing the reminding. The curiously-named “Calf” from ASUS turns out to be the Nuvifone once you click through to the label diagrams, and test documentation reveals that 3G is being tested on both Bands II and V — that’s North America-friendly 1900 and 850MHz, for those who aren’t up to snuff on their spectrum terminology. With gub’mint certification under its belt, maybe we can push that 1H 2009 release window to 1Q, eh, Garmin?
