GPS maker Magellan is expanding its Maestro line of in-vehicle navigation systems with the Magellan Maestro 4700, which features a big 4.7-inch display, built-in voice commands, highway lane assist, and Magellan’s OneTouch user interface for quickly bringing up favorite destinations. And, in a new twist, the Maestro 4700 offers a new “find your car” Pedestrian Mode feature that can automatically bring users back to where they left their car.
Magellan originally announced the Maestro 4370 GPS way back at CES, promising the unit would ship during the first quarter of 2008. It’s now the last quarter of 2008, but he Maestro 4370 is apparently out the door, offering a 4.3-inch touchscreen and a revamped interface that offers 3D land guidance as well as 3D views of buildings and landmarks to help travelers recognize their surroundings.
GPS maker Magellan has announced two nw additions to its Maestro line of in-car GPS systems, in the form of the Maestro 3100 and 3140. The new units are intended to offer the core feature sets the drivers want in a GPS system, but try to leave behind the intimidating price tags often associated with Magellan gear.
“Without compromising the quality and richness of experience that Magellan stands for, we have been able to pack into an even smaller form factor premium features found in the Maestro 4000 series,” said Christian Bubenheim, Magellan’s VP product marketing, in a statement. “These include text-to-speech, full map coverage, AAA travel information, and more. In addition, they are the first auto navigation solutions on the market that use the new Samsung 2443 processor for rapid routing.”
