ASUS R300 photos

First previewed alongside the R600 in September, the R300 navigator by ASUS has finally had photos and individual specifications revealed. As previously suggested, the unit has a 3.5-inch touchscreen, and a 400MHz Samsung processor; loading data is handled primarily through microSD, though it also has a Mini-USB port, and it can perform hands-free functions through Bluetooth 2.0. An FM radio tuner is built-in, and users can also load AAC, MP3 and WMA audio, as well as MPEG-4/H.263 videos.

Notable is that the GPS receiver has been identified as a SiRFstar III, ensuring better locating than in some other low- to mid-end units. No price details have so far been published for the R300, but it should launch in France (and likely the rest of Europe) this November in white and silver colors. [via GPSAndCo]
