Car PCs are cool, but re-fit that idea to a chopper and it comes out way cooler. I mean, this bike is what you get when you combine the efforts of Intel, OCC (Orange County Choppers), and Black Diamond.
Personal GPS trackers seem to be a dime a dozen these days. It’s actually making me a little paranoid, not that anyone would want to keep tabs on me… or would they? Transystem’s i-Tracker is the latest to come to my attention and it comes with both a GPS and a GSM module [...]
This kit comes with all the receivers and hardware necessary to turn just about any in-car display into a navigational unit. I don’t even think it has to be a touch-screen since this kit comes with a remote that could control the software.
The Palm people didn’t have much new to show, but they had a new GPS application and they had a new car mount for the Centro. Really it looked to be resizable so you could probably use it with any phone, but they had the Palm Centro in it.
The video is of one of our other staffers getting his hands on the device, but I also got some hands on time, and I have to say, that for an open source phone, it’s not too bad. It is a little sluggish, and the menu’s can be confusing since they are all picture based [...]
The Pocketfinder is a small personal GPS. It’s purpose is to help parents keep track of their children when playing or even someone with down syndrome, Alzheimer’s or autism. Heck, you could even use this device to keep track of a valuable asset if your wanted as it’s only about the size [...]

The Clarion MiND (Mobile Internet Navigation Device) is an ideal example of the chip manufacturer’s digital companion vision: based [...]
Becker’s Traffic Assist features an easy to control menu, an automatic on/off ignition switch, reality view, route planning, volume/mute control and a day/night design. It has convenient destination entry via alphabet/selection list on a touch screen, postal code entries as well as street addresses, intersections, rest areas and coordinates.
The Navigon 7100 GPS comes with Reality View and Lane Assistant which will show you on the screen exactly which way/lane/road to take. It has an automatic traffic jam avoidance system which is very handy and Radar Info which tells you when a speed camera is coming up.
It has more than 2 million [...]
Well, this week is CES, but there won’t be much, if anything, new here regarding mobile, but by some strange coincidence, the Boy Genius Report was able to snag up 7 “leaked” mobile news stories.
