A new Garmin PND , the nuvi 1690, has passed through the FCC [pdf link], and it seems to have learned some connectivity tricks from its nuvifone cousins. The nuvi 1690 includes not only Bluetooth but GSM/GPRS/EDGE connectivity, presumably offering real-time traffic downloads among other things.
Magellan’s Maestro 4700 PND has cleared the FCC, the first new product in the GPS company’s Maestro series for several months. Based around a 4.7-inch touchscreen, the 4700 PND supports voice commands and Bluetooth; you can find full capabilities in the user manual [PDF link]
Back when the ASUS Eee PC 1008HA cleared the FCC in early April, what we didn’t know was that the company’s confidentiality agreement had hidden away the usual array of external and internal photos. That agreement is obviously up, however, as a flock of breakdown shots together with the “Seashell” netbook’s user manual have appeared on the FCC site.
ASUS’ Eee PC T91 convertible touchscreen netbook has cleared the FCC, and the team there have done their usual job of stripping the hardware down to its more wirelessly-active components and taking fuzzy photos of each. It’s heaven for would-be T91 upgraders, of course, as it allows them to start making a list of possible tweaks.
The FCC is always good for revealing where new devices will end up and this time is no different. In fact, A new filing shows that the Nokia 6750, a flip phone, will be appearing on AT&T in the near future.
A new Sidekick has been passed by the FCC, using T-Mobile USA’s AWS 3G bands. Although there’s no confirmation on which device it is – the product name is PV300 – the expectation is that this is the Sidekick LX 2009 (aka Sidekick 2009).
The ASUS Eee PC 1008HA “Shell” netbook has passed through the FCC, on the way to what we hope is an imminent release in the US. Announced at CeBIT back in March, the Eee PC 1008HA is an ultra-thin 25.7mm netbook with an Intel Atom N280 1.66GHz processor, 160GB hard-drive and 1GB of RAM.
ASUS’ upcoming convertible touchscreen tablet netbook, the ASUS Eee PC T91, has cleared the FCC, paving the way for a US launch. Unlike some filings, the T91’s does not include internal shots – which have, for previous devices, given modders an idea of how customizable the products will be.
The FCC got their hands on the LG GM630 flip today and it seems this handset might just be making its way to the U.S. with a TV tuner at the ready. That would certainly make for an interesting mobile phone, wouldn’t you say?
We don’t know any of the official specs as of yet, but what we do know is that it will be very similar to the LG HB620T, which is available currently in Europe. We can assume it will have a 240 x 320 rez screen with a 2-megapixel camera. Other features will possibly be an FM radio tuner and Bluetooth.
But with a TV tuner thrown into the mix, it’s hard to say how this one will work.The big question on everyone’s minds right now is how the TV signals will get to the phone in the first place. MediaFLO seems like a likely option, but nothing is official at the moment.

We’ve known about the LG KM900 Arena for awhile now but it’s just now creeping its way into the U.S. market. Even if the big reveal was to be a secret, LG has made it apparent we’re going to see this handset on U.S. soil due to a filing with the FCC.
The KM900 Arena will come with 3G support according to the FCC documents. In fact, the specifics are 850MHz and 1,900MHz WCDMA support. This means the phone will likely show up on AT&T, though that hasn’t been confirmed or denyed.
At the moment, the only firmed features are WiFi access, but there’s no indication previous information has been proven false, so you can expect a 5-megapixel camera, GPS and 8GB of storage on the Arena, plus microSDHC. We’re taking a wait and see approach with this one, but with 3G on the docket, it’s very likely this one will show up on AT&T soon.
