KDDI and Toyota get together for TiMO Mobile Phones / AU Posted by zmcnulty on Aug 30, 2006 - 10:15 PM The "TiMO" is a new handset being released by Toyota, branded by au. It's a joint effort between Toyota Motor Corporation and KDDI, based on Toshiba's "W44T" handset. The specs are the same as the W44T, but there's on key difference: hands-free connection with Toyota's official Bluetooth Navigation System. We unfortunately don't have any details on exactly what this connection entails (if anything beyond using Bluetooth for hands-free talking), so hopefully we'll hear something about it from Toyota.
