XRoad upgrades its old “XRoad V4050″ GPS with the brand new “XRoad V4150″ model. Slightly slimmer than its predecessor, V4150 Satnav System offers a wide 4.3-inch touchscreen display wih a resolution of 480×272 and a brightness of 350cd/m2, a SD media card slot, Bluetooth v2.0+EDR connectivity, and a built-in microphone. It supports externall antenna, but sadly, no TMC receiver attached. Finally, its 2100mAh Li-Polymer battery promises to deliver a sufficient amount of running time.

The era of portable satellite navigation device has once again evolved. Thanks to Medion who has just introduced “GoPal P4425″, the first GPS navigation system in the world featuring a built-in fingerprint reader, thus giving access to only a specific user. Along with this wonderful feature, P4425 sports a 4.3-inch LCD screen, 3D map display, a Bluetooth connectivity, voice recognition, and text-to-speech function. It comes with an integrated RDS-TMC traffic receiver, providing real-time information on traffic, as well as built-in FM transmitter, allowing users to hear its voice guidance right from their car’s audio system.

Medion GoPal P4425 GPS will be available in selected European countries (I assume it will pre-loaded with European maps as well), with no words on global release. Its price is not revealed yet either.
