Map-Star GPS Receiver
A new firm known as Map-Star has just revealed its first GPS mapping unit, the HDN-400. While in many cases a standard device with a 4.3-inch touchscreen, the 400 ships with a large database: over 1.65 million points of interests in Canada and the US are stored on a bundled 2GB SD card. Map-Star's device also has room for voice guidance in six languages, including Korean and Spanish. The system also works as a media player for a car with the ability to play music, photos, and videos.
The newcomer to the fiercely competitive GPS arena expects the HDN-400 to arrive in US stores later this month for $500. [via Ubergizmo]
