Asus officially announced today the Asus R710 portable GPS device with head up display feature.
The R710 features a 5 inch touch-screen and a rather elegant user
interface. The killer feature is though the PathFinder HUD. HUD
displays are usually rather expensive options of in premium cars. Last
year GlobalTop introduced a low cost GPS HUD, but it did not really convince.
It is hard to say at this point if the Asus R710 HUD works better.
Other features of the Asus R710 PND (Portable Navigation Device)
include Bluetooth, 2 GB Flash ROM, 64/128 MB SDRAM, micro SD card slot,
USB, Built-in latest SiRF star III chip, light sensor, Windows CE 5.0
and media player.
There is no word on pricing and shipping dates for the R710 yet.
