Question my 12v Fan, can you check your MySpace with your Navigation unit? No? You don’t get e-mail on it either? Perhaps take pictures? Shame!
Pretty soon, all the navigations of tomorrow will just be tiny portable touchscreen all-in-one computers, which technically Clarion’s new MiND is. MiND features a 5.3″ wvga lcd touchscreen, capable of 800 x 480 pixels of bliss. Access to 12vblog.com via browser and WiFi built in, and built on a Linux OS. It even has a built-in Camera on it. The only thing this thing can’t do is place calls…. technically, but with built in Bluetooth and Microphone, it can through your phone. Oh yea, did we mention it does the whole Navigation thing too?
Other specifications include:
- Intel Menlow (Based on Silverthorne processor and Poulsbo Chipset)
- 256MB DRAM
- 4GB Flash Memory for Storage
- WiFi
- GPS Antenna/Receiver
- Li-Ion Rechargeable Battery
- Amplifier
- Speaker
- Headphone Jack
- 3G Data Module (Future Capability)
- Mobile WiMAX (Future Capability)
The price?? We’d like to know as well. By far, this just might be one of the most all-inclusiveportable navigation units we’ve seen thus far. We’ll keep you posted on any updates.
