It has certainly taken Garmin, now known as Garmin-Asus , a while to make their nuvifone G60 available to the public, but if these new pics are any indication, we might see both the Linux-based G60 and Windows Mobile-powered M20 out in Malaysia pretty soon. Word is that both phone will be available in the country “within 30 days” according to the source of these pics. Likewise, Garmin has also confirmed that these handsets will be available in Singapore in August, with other Asian countries getting theirs sometime in late July.

You know those red K6 telephone boxes that are such an iconic and unmissable part of any stay in London? Yeah, that’s the inspiration for the mobile you’re peering at above, just in case you couldn’t guess. The so-called London Calling Mobile Phone is a fully-functional handset, packing a color LCD, SMS and MMS functionality, tri-band GSM connectivity and pre-programmed ringtones that include “Rule Britannia” and “God Save the Queen.” We’d continue swooning if we had to, but we’re pretty sure you’re already whipping the plastic out to make this happen.

When the Pirate Bay was suddenly and unexpectedly commandeered by Global Gaming Factory late last month, only a few clues were dropped as to how the new site would proceed as a legally acceptable entity. Now, however, the owners are speaking up, and their business plan sure sounds unorthodox, if not fatuous in nature. In a new report, we’re told that the new face of TPB should appear in around a month, and with the refresh will come a handful of “give-and-take” pay models that will somehow please both customers and the top brass within the music industry.
