Rumors were true! The navigation system P9611 we reported before is really a colloabaration between Porsche and Navigon.

GPSandCo was able to report some info on the new P9611, but all in French. From what we can understand P9611 features two processors, one of them PXA 270 at 520 MHz for analytics, calculations, etc.. and the other for graphics brought together by a Linux operating system.

Sounds like the P9611 will come with a removable battery and the cone shaped windshield mount will have integrated speakers inside. The 4.3″ screen provides a 16:9 viewing area where you can operate the Navigon MobileNavigator 6 software.

Instead of using traditional chip GPS SiRF III, this PND uses the moon chip µ-blox Antaris4 SuperSense. Let us hope that it will be as sensitive as SiRF III.

The system will come preloaded with locations of radars and such to keep you out of trouble but we don’t for which country.
