Sony Expands U.S. Nav-u™ Personal Navigation System Product Line Sony Electronics - Sony today announced four new feature-packed nav-u™ personal navigation devices (models NV-U94T, NV-U84, NV-U74T and NV-U44) which add more brand icons, search functionality and photo viewing features. 'Sony is bringing entertainment to navigation,' said Mike Kahn, director of marketing for mobile electronics products in the Sony Electronics' Digital Imaging and Audio Division. 'We've added features that make it fun to spend time with the nav-u.' The top-of-the-line NV-U94T adds new features such as a photo viewer, audio/video player and stereo Bluetooth® technology for streaming audio and making hands-free phone calls using compatible devices. The new photo viewer feature turns the screen into a picture frame. Camera owners can view their digital images by inserting a Memory Stick® into the Memory Stick Pro Duo slot.
The new nav-u devices are the only personal navigation devices on the market that provide users with the ability to easily view images shot on Cyber-shot® cameras. This feature also supports the JPEG format and plays back still images individually, in slideshow mode or via thumbnails. The NV-U94T model also can play MP3 and non-DRM AAC music files and MPEG-4 video files from Memory Stick PRO Duo media.
Sony has incorporated stereo Bluetooth® technology (A2DP profile) into the device. Audio can be streamed wirelessly from the nav-u device to a compatible Bluetooth-enabled car stereo system, including Sony's Xplod® MEX-BT2600 and MEX-BT5100 head units. Stereo Bluetooth maintains high-quality sound while streaming music. Hands-free calling is also supported. With a built-in microphone, drivers can use voice commands to initiate calls via compatible Bluetooth-enabled cell phones. Drivers can transfer their phone's address book over to the NV-U94T, which makes dialing a contact easier and safer. The phone dialing function is also linked to the points of interest (POI) database, enabling the user to search for a POI, such as a restaurant, and then call ahead for information.
For drivers who want a larger screen and all the top-end features, the NV-U94T model has a 4.8 inch (measured diagonally) 16:9 aspect ratio display. In addition to the entertainment features, it also includes the super suction cup mounting system, dual view 3D junction guide and POSITION plus™. Stay on Course, Even Underground The GPS satellites broadcast signals can easily be distorted by tall buildings, very dense foliage, or blocked altogether when underground. When this happens, GPS devices can easily give a false location. Sony developed POSITION plus to address the issue.
