Navigon is renowned name in the field of GPS navigation systems, and this company has rolled back the venerable 7100 model, replacing it instead with the 7200T. This successor will retain Navigon's free, real-time traffic as well as core features of it's predecessor, will yield better user interface as well for greater ease-of-use.

This device is very stylish and sleekly designed. There are many impressive features with this unit. For a start, it has Reality View Pro which means that the signs are all in photo realistic 3D. It also offers free real-time traffic updates for life, therefore allowing the user to avoid congestion on the roads and provides an alternative route. Voice destination entry uses advanced voice recognition to allow the driver to speak the address, which is a lot safer.

It features

• A frameless, 4.3inch touch screen display.

• 64MB of RAM,

• 2GB flash storage,

• A SiRF GRF3i+ GPS chip

• MicroSD card support.

The 7200T comes with Bluetooth for hands free communication. It also has direct help, giving the user instant directions and contact information to nearby avenues.

It is said to be on sale as from October 2008, and will be around $449.

It's hard to say when we, the consumers, will actually see any real benefit from the latest noteworthy discovery from Northeastern University, but we can only imagine that Srinivas Sridhar and team aren't wasting any time moving things forward. Said crew has recently created a "new microlens that focuses infrared light at telecommunication frequencies," and if you're looking for specifics, it can focus an infrared beam to a spot just 12-micrometers away from the surface. The science behind the discovery is probably only digestible by those that understand rocket science, but the long of short of it is this: the "research shows that it is possible to create smaller, ultra-compact infrared optical components that can be integrated into existing semiconductor technologies while not sacrificing image quality." Now that's something even the layman can appreciate

Garmin has been commendable in GPS systems and now the behemoth expands its GPS line up by adding a Series 7 to it. The design is suggestive of the successful Nuvi series and Nuvi 785T is the most feature-packed of all as it comes a lifetime subscription to traffic alerts.

What’s more the 7x5 series units will pick up lane assist, a new feature that tells drivers exactly which lane to hop in as they drive, taking the guesswork out of complex multi-lane highways and intersections. The higher end 7x5 series only picks up Bluetooth on the 765T model. The 775T adds European maps, and the 785T adds an MSN Direct receiver for fuel prices, weather reports, movie listings, headline news, stock quotes and local events.

A 480x272 pixels touch-display gives Garmin GPS an enhanced visual interface with 3D rendering making the job much easier indeed!
