The 2cm-deep widescreen devices also come equipped with a docking cradle and a more powerful speaker than earlier products.

The split-screen displays key journey information, including the next four upcoming manoeuvres, information about local traffic congestion or selected points of interest nearby and offers complete 360° over and above rotation of view. All devices sport a 400Mhz processor, SD/MMC card slot, hands-free mobile calling with built-in Bluetooth and microphone, MP3 player, photo viewer plus maps of 22 Western European countries pre-installed on the internal 1GB flash memory.
