Navigon has released its new portable navigation device under the Transonic range, the PNA-6000 and 6000T models. Both GPS uses Navigon’s proprietary navigation software, the MobileNavigator 5, and run under Windows CE .Net operating system. Specs aren’t much differ either. Let’s see. both PNA-6000 and PNA-6000T GPS device features a SiRF III chipset, Samsung 240 (300MHz) processor, 3.5-inch (240×32) 65K colors TFT touchscreen, SD/MMC card slot (up to 1GB supported), and 5 hours of usage with Lithium-ion battery.
Measures 10.8 x 7 x 2 cm and weighs 200 grams, both GPS devices also come with a MP3 player, but sadly, no multitasking capability, so you can’t listen to the music while checking the road. And now, the difference between PNA-6000 and 6000T is that the earlier model has a cartography of France on chart SD, while the 6000T integrates RDS/TMC receiver - for more detail traffic information - and comes with a map data of entire Europe countries in CD. However, another sad news for you, the RDS/TMC receiver only covers the paying motorways and is not of Premium type to propose information traffic in the large cities like Paris Intra muros and its peripheral in particular.
The Navigon Transonic PNA-6000 GPS is retailed for 299 EUR, while the 6000T sells at 349 EUR. Both will be available in the middle of June.

Pssst! Most people are coming to this page searching for: 
I bought one in November 2006 in Germany; worked fine for 4 months and then froze on the start-up screen … it has taken over 6 weeks for Navigon to respond with a solution … they will replace it. Nice unit, more useful in Europe than USA … features are not compatible yet (traffic alert and speed alerts). If you are in USA … I’d recommend a Garmin or Tom-Tom … until Navigon gets their USA network and service support working better.
I have purchased the same Navigon PNA 6000 and loved it while I lived in Germany, Unfortuantely, when you come back state side, Navigon offers you the code to install the US maps, at an additional charge, or you can call the German office and have them give you the code, at a charge from your phone service. So I sent an email, and they replied but now I am having issues with the GPS not turning on. Seems to be an endless battle of what is next. Reccommend staying away from Transonic or Navigon products.
