Gizmodo was able to get their hands on the next generation of GPS navigation devices - Dash - which we have talked about before here, here, here, and here. Dash seems to have new hardware design now looking a lot better than prototype models.


Dash has wireless two way connectivity via GPRS so it can collect real time live traffic information from their users and let others know where there’s a traffic jam. It also has has Wi-Fi.


Another unique feature that makes Dash revolutionary is that instead of a static POI database, it gets local listings from Yahoo. Some other specs were also revealed as well:



  • Larger screen 4.3″TFT LCD screen, 480x272

  • Haptic buttons for audio, main menu

  • Powered mount

  • Internal battery with 2 to 4 hours of life

  • Improved audio quality

  • Improved TTS

  • USB port


We have no info on pricing just yet but Dash will start selling in first quarter of 2008.
