The Navman iCN 750 is a highend sat nav system which now includes a 4Gb internal hard drive. This is the only down fall of the device as it would have been better with 4Gb flash because of access speeds. The new device will feature an iPod like wheel to navigate with and it is possible to download guided tours with images and put them directly in to your itierary. This high end sat nav system should sell for around $700.

Imagine driving towards some traffic lights and you can have a count down telling you how long before the light changes Green. Or if an ambulance is on it’s way and you need to move. This might happen with this new idea from Sony. It’s basically a system currently which is designed to pass messages from car to car through an LED which appears to be switched on all the time but is inface flashing very quickly. I personally have no idea what a car to car communication could be needed for, bearing in mind the you would have to type out a message etc… and surely it’s quicker to call someone. Maybe something like a breaking system might be of benefit where it can warn the driver behind of sharp braking.
