14 DAY TRIAL // If you're one of those wanderers who needs proper guiding through the nature's labyrinths, then GPS handhelds are probably your best travel mates. Wait to hear about this GPS wonder. The Onix 400 will be the first outdoor device that provides personalized, localized weather content delivery integrated within the GPS map environment.
Memorising your favorite fishing spots will meet no obstacles. And in case you get lost into the deep Amazonian jungle just push the HOT button and find out where you are and where's the nearest saved waypoint is. Selecting the Safe Track function will put the GPS in an energy conserving "sleep" mode while still maintaining satellite connection. Choosing this mode will give you a good 40 hours GPS support. The unit even signals you with an audible alarm if it senses you deviate from your course.
The weather info is provided by a Doppler-radar feed that come from XM satellite radio. Its split screen lets you check out what XM content is playing while viewing weather data. The palm-sized device also layers trail routes on top of aerial photos, satellite images and topographic maps. It's waterproof and looks safe even if you happen to love sports like canoeing.
You can also check its enhanced sports scoreboard in order to find the latest sport statistics and scores. This is also offered by XM satellite radio. The handheld features a 3.5-inch full-color LCD screen (320 X240 pixel resolution), 64 MB MicroSD card for data and maps and a rechargeable Li-Ion battery (no word about a hand-crack yet). The device is nowhere to be found and "bought", yet. It should be available this summer and it will sell for a "cheap" 500$.
