CES 2008: iRiver shows off a prototype GPS phone
January 10th, 2008
Everyone and his dog seems to be showing off GPS phones at CES this year. Now iRiver has jumped on the bandwagon by showing off a prototype of a new iRiver GPS phone that they expect to release by the end of 2008.
This will be the first mobile phone that iRiver have released, and they’re an unexpected entrant in what must be the most competitive of all hi-tech markets. However, having had great success in the MP3 and Personal Media Player markets, they clearly know what they’re doing, both from a technological perspective, and, just as importantly, a design and marketing perspective.
They’ve got a tough fight on their hands, but they should be able to build a niche for themselves.
More details of the iRiver GPS phone after the jump.
