We have mentioned the iRiver NV series here at Navigadget before. Just recently they came out with their latest model called iRiver NV Classic.

The NV Classic has a 7″ screen and comes with a 64 channel GPS receiver which powers the award winning Mappy 2008 GPS navigation software. It has internal 1.5 watts speakers, SiRF GRF3i + GPS chipset, ability to play various media formats in addition to DMB digital TV support. It supports SDHC cards so you can probably bring multiple DVD quality movies for long road trips.

Sorry it is only for Korea as usual. Make us want to move to the south end of their peninsula. iRiver NV Classic costs the equivalent of $250. Not a bad price… Read More …

iRiver NV now has a smaller version conveniently named iRiver NV Mini. iRivers hardly ever make it to the U.S. from its motherland of Korea so do not get your hopes up.

iRiver NV MINI has a 3.5″ screen (half of the original iRiver NV), runs on Windows CE 5.0, and can last about 2.5 hours on a single charge. The maps and navigation software come from Gini of Korea which all fit on a 4GB memory card.

It only costs 188000KRW which is about $131… Read More …

iRiver M3

Aug 25, 2008 gps navigation Leave a comment

There’s a new GPS navigation system introduced by iRiver. It’ll be unveiled within this week but we already know a few things about this slim device.

First off it has a 3.5″ TFT LCD screen. iRiver wanted to keep things simple with this device so there’s not a even single button on the front. All user interaction is done through the touch screen display. All the maps are stored on an SD card, just like most other entry level GPS navigation systems. You also have your usual multimedia support. You can listen to a few audio files, watch videos, view your images, and so on.

More than likely iRiver M3 will be available in Asia but if decides to move further west we’ll be sure to let you know… Read More …

iRiver NV – I NV U

Aug 13, 2007 gps navigation 1 Comment

The Korean 7″ sat nav we mentioned back in June (namely iRiver NV) is gaining more popularity these days.

The device features a GPS navigation system with 3D maps, DMB receiver, and a multimedia player that can handle:

• JPG, JPEG
• MP3, WMA, AC3, OGG
• AVI, WMW, MPG, MPEG
• MPEG-4(SP, ASP), XviD, WMV7/8/9, MPEG-1

Of course what makes iRiver NV so different from the rest is the 1.15″ PMOLED screen that complements the main 7″ touch screen. This little extra screen will be used when confirming operations or showing the next turn you need to take while navigating.

There’s also a 1.3MP digital camera which can also shoot short movies. More in I/O department you’ll find the dual SD card slot and the USB host very handy. Did we also mention there are two processors on board: MagicEye MMSP2 at 390MHz and Dual Core CPU at 300MHz.

Other specs include 128MB DDR RAM, 256MB NaND flash ROM, WinCE 5.0 Core operating system, an FM tuner, SiRF Star III fold-out GPS receiver, 2W stereo speakers, and a 530mAh Li-Ion battery.

The device is already for sale in Korea for equivalent of about $530.

iRiver just announced an all-in-one system called iRiver NV that features GPS navigation, DMB receiver, PMP, FM radio, and various other functions, all packed into a sexy slim body with a WVGA 7″ screen, and 2 SD ports.

It will initially be available in Korea as usual and probably will not make it to US or Europe. Sorry… via
