New Becker satnav only unit

[off_again]

Seems that Becker have entered the market of big screen satnav only units. An advert in Autocar this week has a nice picture of it - but the www.becker.de website carried nothing.

Anyone know anything about this? Becker routing and map data is actually really good and their existing units do win a lot of awards (even though the older ones are a little difficult to use). Could be an excellent alternative to TomTom or Navman.....

Still nothing on the Becker site, but did find this:

www.caraudiodiscount.com/acatalog/becker_traffic_assist_7914.html

Looks good - high resolution and nice display. Anyone know anything about this?

I found out about these last weekend.

Try a search for Becker Traffic Assist 7914.

Looks to retail for about £330

The leaflet I was given implies all of Europe covered / Speed Limit display and various types of route selection.

Usual touch screen / postcode and house number search / store favourite destinations etc

Also includes a built in MP3/wma player and jpg picture viewer.

Release date - Supposed to be end of October. My local dealer hopes to have stock in about 10 days.
