Garmin announced this today. Its a 3g phone on AT&T with a built in GPS, and Camera. They mention a geotagging feature for photos.

Any one hear about geocaching capabilities?

This announcement is a little old - it was featured on engagdet a couple of months back. But its not out yet except for some lucky few and 'testers' so there really hasn't been a review yet on the geocaching performance of the GPS - at least none that i have been able to find sad.gif and i haven't heard any reviews yet from some of their folks on twitter. But it looks like an awesome device all the same smile.gif Although sticking it on AT&T wasn't the brightest idea that Garmin has had, LOL, but hopefully they wont follow Apples course and open it up to other providers.

As long as the GPS is better than the iphone it should be pretty neat.
