The Altina Handheld GPS from Taiwan is a nice little compact navigation system that only measures less than an inch thick (117 mm x 82 mm x 23mm to be exact) and weighs 175 grams. It runs on Samsung 2410 processor and gives you a 3.5 inch color LCD which you can interact with a stylus pen or the on-screen keyboard. It has a flip style antenna for its SiRF Star III GPS receiver for better reception.

The Altina navigation system comes with 32 MB of flash ROM and 64MB of SDRAM, but you can plug-in a lot more using the available SD/MMC slot. Unlike most new navigation systems, this one does not seem to have any multimedia capabilities mentioned on their website.

    I am leaving on Monday 4 May for a trip to New Zealand and would like to be able to use my A660 machine.
    Is there a facility in Auckland for me to access this? (time is very limited)

    PLEASE NOTE A600 A601 5210 are all discontinued models. NO SPARE PARTS other than batteries and some accessories. Do not buy any of these older models off Ebay or other sites as we can no longer support or provide warranty for these units

    5220 and A660 are also discontinued models, but there are still spare parts available

    New models A8010 and A860 are the latest models available.
