What you see here is the buttonless trackpad, courtesy of Synaptics. You may remember Synaptics as the company that will provide Nokia with their future multi-touch capacitive touchscreens. This trackpad is called the "ClickPad" according to Synaptics and it's targeted for netbooks. "ClickPads work with Synaptic's latest Gesture Suite 9.1, which includes all the regulars, along with three-finger flick and three-finger press, which lets you start up your computer along with up to six predetermined start apps." It sounds complicated, but I'm still excited. I can't wait for these to be implemented in the future, I wonder who will use it first.

You may know Garmin-Asus for their infamous G60 Nuviphone (above) that has been delayed for 12 months now. Well, they have just mentioned that they expect to launch their first Android smartphone by the end of Q1 2010. "The duo have declined to comment on how much the Android smartphone might cost. However they have confirmed that the GPS will be used for geotagging photos and for offering other location-based services."

Don't get your hopes up though, it could be delayed until Q4 - with Garmin-Asus' track record.
