Jensen NVX225 GPS Review
Saturday, December 15th, 2007Jensen is no stranger to aftermarket car tech, but we’ve mostly looked at its in-car stereo units rather than the company’s portable navigation systems, so we were pretty anxious to take the Jensen NVX225 out for a test drive when it arrived at our office. On the upside, the NVX225 has a pretty affordable price [...]
Mio DigiWalker C230 Review
Tuesday, December 11th, 2007Back in May, we reviewed the Mio C220 portable navigation system, which we loved for its ease of use and affordable price, but ultimately we had to diss it because of an awful screen. Well, we’re happy to say that its successor, the Mio DigiWalker C230, offers the same intuitiveness and budget-friendly price plus an [...]

Tuesday, December 11th, 2007If you’re directionally challenged or are constantly on the road for meetings, the GlobalSat BT-359 Bluetooth GPS Receiver might be a good accessory to pick up for your RIM BlackBerry Curve.

First, there’s a traffic receiver integrated into the sleek device and you get a free traffic subscription so you [...]
TomTom GO 720 Review
Saturday, December 8th, 2007Portable navigation systems are a dime a dozen these days. A lot of the models offer many of the same functions, such as text- and voice-guided turn-by-turn directions and millions of points of interest, and they’re all beginning to look alike with competitive pricing. So there’s a real need for innovation to, not only capture [...]
Delphi NAV300 Review
Wednesday, December 5th, 2007When we reviewed the Delphi NAV200 last year, we gave it props for being a good value and offering accurate directions. Now, the company has come out with a step-up model, the Delphi NAV300, and once again, we’re impressed with how much the system offers for its $399.99 price tag, including Bluetooth integration and text-to-speech [...]
