This has SiRF-StarIII chipset... to please most of you GPS freaks... :D

It has full size SDHC slot and plays media (audio/video) and can play through your car stereo via built in FM transmitter.

EDIT: It has Windows CE OS, so it's likely keeping most of us away from it... :rolleyes:

Just wondering if this has lifetime Wayfinder license, and if it could be transferred to N8x0? As a bonus you'll get the full windshield mount kit... After these $100 is not that bad deal at all even if you throw the 500 away... :eek:

N800 car kit costs like 50 EUR. Sirf-III costs 10-30 EUR. MTK costs 50 EUR.

I'd rather buy a TomTom. At least it runs Linux ;)
