Navigon launches "uber-premium" 4.8-inch 8100T navigator

In an effort to make sure you're well aware that the 8100T is the most premium possible, even better than ultra- or mega-premium, Navigon has definitively described the aforesaid navigator as "uber-premium." So, now that the bar is set at an unbelievably high level, how's about an outlay of the sure-to-be-phenomenal specs? We're talking a 4.8-inch display, brushed-metal housing, a 3D view using NASA terrain height data, free real-time traffic updates for life, voice destination entry, Bluetooth handsfree support, text-to-speech and an inbuilt lane assistant. The only question left is simply this: is all of that uber enough to warrant the $599 price tag?

Holux quietly introduces 5-inch GPSmile 62 navigator

What comes after the GPSmile 61? Why, the GPSmile 62, of course! The predictably titled successor to the big-bezeled unit we spotted at CES earlier this year has surfaced, though there's no real indication that it's coming stateside. Thus far, we're seeing a 5-inch WQVGA display, an "edge-free" design, an SD card slot, integrated speakers and a removable rechargeable battery to boot. You'll also find a built-in multimedia player as well as Bluetooth, and the TMC support should keep you posted on real-time traffic. You're hopelessly riveted, aren't you?
