The new TomTom GO 510
Personal GPS Sat Nav Navigation Device is the entry level
of the new GO range, although not what you would call
a low specification.
Handsfree Bluetooth car kit integrated as standard, a
larger 4" wide screen and a plethora of features
unrivalled by any other PND.
The device is set to be supplied with a docking station
for use in your home, that will allow you to easily charge
your Tom Tom GO and manage the contents including your
Points of Interest including Speed Cameras locations.
As well as an integrated SirfStar III GPS receiver, the
new GO 510 will also have the ability to playback MP3
files and the new additions to the TomTom Plus service
have been adjusted to reflect this with audiobooks scheduled
for availability to Plus members.
Mention has been made of a text to speech function which
will apparently read out street names. |
