Vodafone has started selling the 903T GPS phone by
Toshiba we spied last month, a
3G handset that they claim is the first to deal out
GPS assistance in both Japan and the rest of
the world. It’s going to work with Vodaphone’s new NAVI service that will serve up information about your location and
destination, and help with route finding. You can spy the maps on the phone’s 2.4-inch 240 x 320 display, and you
should be able to connect to most networks with the
CDMA and
GSM support. The 1.92 megapixel camera is a nice touch, as
is the SD support and included 64MB card, though it seems just 10MB is available for pictures — we’re guessing a good
chunk is being used up by maps. No word on a US carrier, but it should be a boon for the 4 Billion Japanese tourists
who visit the Grand Canyon each week and need a little assistance hiking around.
