Sony Ireland's new in-car sat-navs

Sony, which has been getting into handheld GPS lately, released two new sat-nav devices to the Irish market today. One, the NV-U70T, has pan-European map coverage while the other, the NV-U50, has a more limited local range. Sony is clearly taking advantage of its hi-fi prowess, boasing a 1.6 woofer on the back of the NV-U50 and a tweeter on the front. Car cradle kits are available, as well as an external GPS antenna. The NV-U50 is €489 and the NV-U70T is €779. Should be available in the next few days from Sony Centres and Peats.
