Taiwanese GPS manufacturer Altina just unveiled a new GPS navigation system called A680. Altina A680 uses the highly sensitive and industry standard SiRF Star III GPS receiver chipset and relies on a 400MHz Samsung processor for route calculations.

Unlike other models from Altina, A680 features a wide 4″ screen, and adds in a 2MP digital camera on the back of the device. Extra features don’t end here: The A680 even has an FM transmitter to hear voice directions over your car audio system and an integrated MP3 player and MP4 movie player. It doesn’t feature a hard disk but comes with a SD slot to bring in your media.

Hopefully Altina will be able find a distributor in U.S. and Europe; it sure would be a good competition for the big names.

  2. [...] Those looking for a few more extras on their next navigation system have a growing number of choices, but Altina is upping the ante by cramming even more gadgetry than usual inside its A680. Specs wise, you’ll find a 400MHz Samsung processor, a four-inch 480 x 272 resolution LCD, 64MB of NAND RAM, 128MB of SDRAM, a SIRFstarIII module, integrated stereo speakers, headphone out, and an SD expansion slot for any excess media. Additionally, there’s USB connectivity, an FM transmitter, two-megapixel digital camera, AV input jack for flicks (or gaming) on the go, and a rechargeable Li-ion that should prove handy if you make your way into the wilderness. Sadly, there’s no pricing information available on this do-it-all device, but we’ve got a hunch it won’t make it outside of China anyway. [Via NaviGadget] [...]

  3. The 680 has been withdrawn from the market. Thius has been mainly f=due to technical problems. There is also the issue of Maps. No map softeare has yet been decided on for this unit. Will it be available outside of Taiwan? Yes it will, keep a close eye on announcements from Marbella Australia with regards to this high end model.
